Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
(a) An
						  installer certification authorizes the person to whom it is issued to conduct
						  tank handling activities or tightness testing activities pertaining to storage
						  tank systems or storage tank facilities in one or more of the categories in
						  subsection (b).
(b) Installer
						  certifications may be issued for the following categories:
(1)
Underground storage tank system
						  installation and modification {UMX}.
Installation and modification of
						  underground storage tank systems including the tank and all associated
						  ancillary equipment, appurtenances, corrosion protection systems, structural
						  components and foundations. This category also includes conducting
						  preinstallation air pressure tests for underground storage tank systems,
						  overfill prevention equipment evaluations, containment sump and spill
						  prevention equipment testing, and release detection equipment
						  testing.
(2)
Underground
						  storage tank system minor modification {UMI}.
Limited to the
						  performance of minor modifications of underground storage tank systems. This
						  category also includes conducting overfill prevention equipment evaluations,
						  containment sump and spill prevention equipment testing, and release detection
						  equipment testing.
(3)
Underground storage tank system removal {UMR}.
Removal from
						  service of underground storage tank systems.
(4)
Underground storage tank system
						  tightness tester {UTT}.
Tightness testing activities involved in
						  conducting and interpreting results of volumetric and nonvolumetric tests on
						  underground storage tank systems. This category also includes containment sump
						  and spill prevention equipment testing and release detection equipment
						  testing.
(5)
Aboveground
						  manufactured metallic storage tank system installation and modification
						  {AMMX}.
Installation and modification of aboveground manufactured
						  metallic storage tank systems, including the tank and all associated ancillary
						  equipment, appurtenances and corrosion protection systems. This category also
						  covers foundations, containment structures and structural components when they
						  are designed by an engineer qualified in civil construction or when installing
						  small aboveground UL-labeled tanks with manufacturer's installed
						  self-containment or diking systems.
(6)
Aboveground nonmetallic storage
						  tank system installation and modification {AMNX}.
Installation and
						  modification of aboveground nonmetallic storage tank systems, including the
						  tank and all associated ancillary equipment and appurtenances. This category
						  also covers foundations and structural components when they are designed by an
						  engineer qualified in civil construction or as specified by the tank
						  manufacturer.
(7)
Aboveground manufactured storage tank system removal {AMR}.
Removal from service of aboveground manufactured storage tank
						  systems.
(8)
Aboveground
						  field constructed metallic storage tank installation, modification and removal
						  {AFMX}.
Installation, modification and removal of aboveground field
						  constructed metallic storage tanks and corrosion protection systems. This
						  category also covers the modification of tank shell components of an
						  aboveground manufactured metallic storage tank.
(9)
Aboveground field constructed
						  storage tank system removal {AFR}.
Removal from service of aboveground
						  field constructed and manufactured aboveground storage tank systems.
(10)
Aboveground storage tank system
						  mechanical installation, modification and removal {AMEX}.
Installation, modification and removal of tank related mechanical
						  appurtenances, including valves, fill piping, suction piping, foam system
						  piping, pumps, corrosion protection systems, release detection systems, and
						  spill and overfill prevention systems that are components of an aboveground
						  storage tank system.
(11)
Aboveground storage tank system civil {ACVL}.
Installation and
						  modification of tank related structural components, including foundations, dike
						  walls, field grading, above and below grade vaults, pump supports, pipe
						  supports, corrosion protection systems and drainage systems associated with an
						  aboveground storage tank system.
(12)
Storage tank liner
						  {TL}.
Activities involved in installation or modification of internal
						  linings for underground and aboveground storage tank systems and the evaluation
						  of underground storage tank linings as required in §
														245.422(b)(1)(ii)
						   (relating to upgrading of existing
						  underground storage tank systems).
