Proposed Ricker Oil Retail Station
146`" Street & River Road
Carmel Indiana
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Ricker Oil Company (Ricker Oil) is submitting this proposal to the City of Carmel
for a proposed gasoline retail station and convenience store at the southwest
corner of the intersection of East 146th Street and River Road in Carmel, Indiana.
The proposed location is on historically undeveloped land that is currently zoned
for a convenience store by the City of Carmel. Currently, a gasoline refueling
station and a convenience store does not exist in the vicinity and the proposed
facility will provide the residents in the neighborhood with a much needed
convenience that is currently unavailable.
�- Ricker Oil currently owns and operates 50 gasoline refueling stations and
convenience stores across central Indiana. They have extensive experience in
r operating some of the finest refueling stations in the State of Indiana. The
proposal for the proposed refueling station and convenience store is in alignment
with the City of Carmel's comprehensive development plan and Ricker Oil plans
on building a retail gasoline station that exceeds the State of Indiana and Federal
regulations for Underground Storage Tanks (USTs). The proposed station will
be constructed with quality brick and stone and an enhanced pump canopy.
The location of the proposed gasoline retail station is outside the one and five
year time of travel (TOT) of the Wellhead Protection Area (WHPA) of the City of
Carmel municipal water supply system, however, the location appears to be
within the one year TOT of the Citizens Water Company WHPA. Therefore,
Ricker Oil has voluntarily elected to comply with the more stringent UST system
design requirements contained in the Indiana Administrative Code (IAC) 329 IAC
9 and the Code of Federal Regulations 40 CFR 280, that regulate new UST
system installations within a one year TOT to a community public water supply
well. Ricker Oil plans to go above and beyond the Indiana State and Federal
regulations and provide additional safety, spill prevention and response
mechanisms that will essentially make the UST system fool -proof from gasoline
releases to the environment.
This report provides information on the proposed UST system conceptual design,
installation, leak detection, spill prevention and overfill protection for the
proposed UST system. The report also addresses the WHPA, provides a
hydrogeologic assessment, storm water treatment and management, routine
station operation and maintenance (O &M), contingency planning and emergency
response.
In preparing this report, Creek Run has reviewed publically available information
for hydrogeologic assessment studies, state and federal design criteria for UST
systems, and technical expertise from a variety of sources. Creek Run also
reviewed documents from the United States Geological Services (USGS) Water
Resources Investigation report for Carmel, the Wellhead Protection Plan from the
City of Carmel and the WHPA map furnished by Citizens Water.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Background
Ll Creek Run L.L.C. Environmental Engineering (Creek Run) has prepared this
report for Ricker Oil Company (Ricker Oil) for the proposed Ricker Oil gasoline
retail station and convenience store at the intersection of 146th Street and River
Road in Carmel, Indiana. The subject property is located in close proximity of the
five year time of travel (TOT) Wellhead Protection Area (WHPA) of the City of
r Carmel municipal water supply system and within the one year TOT for Citizens
Water Company. The report provides information on the conceptual design,
installation, leak detection, spill prevention and overfill protection of the proposed
UST system. The report also addresses the WHPA, storm water management,
routine operation and maintenance (O &M), and contingency planning. The
report discusses compliance of the proposed Underground Storage tank (UST)
system with all requirements as contained in the Indiana Administrative Code
(IAC) and the Code of Federal Regulations 40 CFR 280.
1.2 Site Conditions & Proposed Systems
The proposed site is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of 146th
Street and River Road in Carmel, Indiana. Figure 1 is Site Plan showing the
location of the proposed retail gasoline station. Figure 2 depicts the City of
Carmel Water Utilities Wellhead Protection Map showing the location of the
proposed site with reference to the City of Carmel WHPA. Figure 3 is the Indiana
Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) Water Well location map showing the
location of significant water withdrawal wells in the vicinity of the proposed site.
r i
Figure 4 illustrates the triple -wall conceptual design of the proposed USTs.
Figure 5 is the conceptual design of the proposed fuel dispenser area.
The proposed triple -wall UST design is UL Listed for safety, NFPA 30 fire and H-
20 traffic rated and designed for corrosion resistance. The fuel piping is a
double -wall fuel piping contained within a tertiary high density polyethylene
(HDPE) outer jacket. The piping is flexible and does NOT have any bends,
fittings, or couplings between the UST and dispenser connections.
The entire UST system will be constructed in a fail safe manner that will include
safety and protection systems that will prevent any leaks or spills to occur.

2.0 HYRDROGEOLOGIC & ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT
Creek Run, on behalf of Ricker Oil, performed a preliminary hydrogeological
assessment of the water supply aquifer. Creek Run reviewed the City of Carmel
wellhead protection plan, published United States Geological Survey (USGS)
documents, and Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) well logs for
significant water supply wells in proximity to the proposed development location.
The proposed development is located in the Tipton Till Plain Physiographic
Region of Indiana at an elevation of approximately 755 feet above mean sea
level (msl). Bedrock beneath the site {Devonian Age limestone and dolomite} is
present at an elevation of approximately 700 feet above msl and covered by
approximately 55 feet of unconsolidated glacial sediments. Based on nearby
water well records {USGS Well (HA -7) #388260 and Indianapolis Water
Company Well #255,268} near the proposed development, 2.0 to 4.0 feet of soil
or silty clay is underlain by sand and gravel, with some thin clay layers, to a
depth of approximately 55 feet below grade.
The site lies in the White River Basin and water for the area is provided by wells
installed in unconsolidated surficial sand and gravel adjacent to and deposited by
the White River in a unit known as the White River and Tributaries Outwash
Aquifer System. This highly productive aquifer (up to 4,000 gallons per minute
per well) is exploited by surrounding municipalities (including Noblesville,
Westfield, Carmel, and Indianapolis) and private users. Prior to exploitation of
the aquifer, groundwater in the vicinity of the proposed development was
encountered approximately 10 feet below grade and flowed southeast toward the
White River (Giles, 1976). Recent USGS records indicate the depth to
groundwater in a nearby observation well (HA -7) varied from approximately 20 to
26 feet below grade from May 2012 to April 2013. According to Figure 2 -1
(Wellhead Protection Area Delineation Map) of the Carmel Water Utilities Phase
11 Well Head Protection Plan (October 2011), groundwater beneath the proposed
development appears to flow northwest toward production wells operated by the -
Citizens Water Group.
The proposed development lies just outside of the one year time of travel (TOT)
for City of Carmel municipal wells and within the one year TOT of the City of
Noblesville well field. The nearest currently producing City of Carmel water well
(Carmel Well #19) is located approximately 7,000 feet southwest of the proposed
development. Proposed City of Carmel municipal water well (Carmel Well
#414,494) is located approximately 1,560 feet southwest of the proposed
development. Indianapolis Water Company Well #255,268 is located
approximately 900 feet east of the proposed development. Several private water
wells (wells #148,588 and #149,613) are located approximately 550 feet and 900
feet north, respectively, of the proposed development across East 146th Street.

A detailed environmental impact assessment including, a contaminant fate and
transport model and a proposed verification monitoring well network, will be
prepared pending approval of this proposal by the City of Carmel. The model
will be based on actual site conditions as determined from the installation of soil
borings and monitoring wells at the site.
3.0 PROPOSED UST SYSTEM PERFORMANCE STANDARD
The proposed UST system will consist of one 15,000 gallon and two 6,000 gallon
tanks with total capacity of 27,000 gallon. The USTs will be located north of the
L proposed pump islands and canopy as depicted on Figure 1. As mentioned
previously, the UST system will exceed the Indiana State regulations for USTs.
More specifically, the requirements contained in 329 IAC 9 -2 -1.1 that are
applicable to new UST systems installed within a one year TOT to a wellhead
protection area.
The proposed station is outside the one and five year TOT of the City of Carmel
wellhead protection area. However, it is within a one year TOT of the Citizens
Water WHPA. Ricker Oil has voluntary elected to comply with the more stringent
and expensive UST system design requirements contained in 329 IAC 9- 2 -1.1.
Ricker Oil is willing to go above and beyond the Indiana State and Federal
regulations for UST systems installed within the wellhead protection area, by
installing triple -wall USTs and piping. Figure 2 shows the location of the
proposed Ricker Oil retail station in relation to the City of Carmel Wellhead
Protection Area. Conceptual design of the UST system, spill and overfill
protection devices are discussed in sections below.
3.1 UST Design
Design and construction of the USTs will protect against corrosion and product
release. The USTs will be designed with the following secondary and tertiary
containment systems:
1) Triple -wall fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) construction, UL listed, NFPA
30, and H -20 traffic rated; and
2) The monitoring space between the inner, middle, and outer walls of the
UST (interstitial space) will contain continuous leak monitoring devices
that will shut down the UST system in case of a leak. The leak detection
devices will be tested routinely.

Proposed Ricker Oil Retail Station
14616 Street & River Road
Carmel, Indiana
Page 4 of 8
3.2 Piping
Design and construction of the piping will protect against corrosion and product
release. The piping is specifically designed for hazardous fluids such as gasoline
with a secondary containment and consists of the following features:
UL listed flexible double -wall piping that is designed for installation within
an outer containment jacket;
2. The outer containment jacket contains interstitial space which allows for
continuous monitoring and easy periodic testing; and
3. The flexible piping design will require only two fittings between the USTs
and the dispensers, thereby eliminating the potential for leaks.
The tertiary outer containment for USTs and piping with leak detection will be
above and beyond the Indiana State and Federal regulations for a UST system
installed within a one year TOT for a wellhead protection area.
3.3 Spill and overfill protection
Spill buckets - The USTs will be equipped with double -wall spill bucket, which is
a bucket like device located at the top of each fill tube where fuel is delivered.
This acts as a catchment for spills during product delivery into the UST. A tight -
fill fitting will also be located at the top of the fill tube inside the spill containment
bucket, which forms a liquid tight seal during fuel deliveries. Any spills during
refueling will overflow into the concrete vault of the UST.
Shut off valve - An overfill prevention device consisting of a delivery shut -off
valve provided at the UST will prevent fuel flow when the product level in the
UST reaches a preset level (usually 95 %).
Sumps - Fuel dispensers will have double -wall sumps at the bottom to contain
leaks from the piping.
Emergency shut off valves - will be provided beneath dispensers at grade level to
minimize hazards associated with collision or fire at the dispenser. If a dispenser
is pulled over or dislodged by collision, the top of the valve breaks shutting off the
flow of fuel.
Breakaways — prevent fuel from spilling on the ground, creating a fire hazard and
preventing damage to the dispensers when someone drives off with the fuel
nozzle still in their gas tank.
Emergency stop — located in the convenience store near the cash register will
stop all fueling operations during an emergency.

3.4 Under - dispenser containment
Individual fuel dispensers will have sumps at the bottom to contain leaks from
fuel piping or a loose fitting. Sumps will be double -wall with interstitial monitoring
for leaks as depicted on the conceptual fuel dispenser plan in Figure 5. The
interstitial monitoring device will shut the UST system in case of a leak in the
dispenser piping at the fuel dispenser.
4.0 PROPOSED UST SYSTEM INSTALLATION, TESTING & MONITORING
4.1 UST System installation
F! Contractor(s) with extensive experience in installing retail gasoline UST systems
L; will be utilized for the proposed station.
4.2 UST System testing
Following installation, the system will be tested to applicable state and federal
regulations for UST systems installed in a WHPA area.
4.3 UST System monitoring
The triple -wall UST containment includes interstitial monitoring devices between
each tank that will shut down the UST system in case of leaks.
Testing to verify the absence of petroleum free product within the UST
excavation will be performed by installing tank pit well(s). The tank pit wells will
' be installed to the bottom of the UST excavation. The wells will be monitored for
the presence of petroleum product on a monthly basis.
Testing or monitoring to detect vapors within the soil will be performed by
installing vapor monitoring well(s). The vapor monitoring wells will detect any soil
gas vapors using a hand held vapor monitoring device such as a photoionization
detector (PID). Vapor monitoring will be conducted on a semi - annual basis.
Monitoring of groundwater on -site will be conducted to detect gasoline product on
the water table using a water level device equipped with an interface probe. The
interface probe detects the presence of gasoline product on the water table by
means of a distinct buzzing sound. Groundwater sampling to verify the
absence of dissolved phase petroleum constituents in the groundwater will be
conducted on a semi - annual basis.
Creek Run is currently performing groundwater sampling for a Ricker Oil retail
gasoline station located at 2025 West Southport Road in Indianapolis in
accordance with the Marion County Public Health Department requirements.

5.0 STORM WATER TREATMENT & MANAGEMENT PLAN
5.1 Storm Water Management
Storm water will be treated prior to discharge to the storm sewer system of the
City of Carmel. The on -site storm water will be conveyed by via sanitary grade,
water -tight storm sewer piping to an on -site pre- treatment system consisting of
primary and secondary filtering systems. An Aqua Shield Aqua - Swirl"
Hydrodynamic Separator or equivalent storm water separator designed to
remove 80% of the Total Suspended Solids (TSS) in the incoming water,
followed by further treatment in a secondary filtration system such as an
AquaFilter designed to remove finer suspended solids and free floating oil.
Details of the Aqua - Swirl" Hydrodynamic Separator are in Attachment A.
The treated storm water from the primary and secondary filtration system will
enter a lined detention pond located off -site to the west of the proposed location
as depicted on Figure 1. Containment of any dissolved petroleum constituents in
the storm water will be accomplished by lining the pond bottom with a minimum
6 -inch clay layer that will act as a confining layer for migration of dissolved
petroleum contaminants into the natural soil and groundwater. The treated storm
water from the lined detention pond will be discharge into the Tunis Garrard
Regulated Drain network.
The detention pond outflow will contain a manually actuated valve that can be
closed during a leak or spill until the released product can be safely addressed.
The lined detention pond will also serve as a catchment basin in the event of a
large release. The size of the pond will be sufficient for containing the contents
of an entire fuel tanker in case of catastrophic release from the tanker.
6.0 UST SYSTEM OPERATION, MONITORING & MAINTENANCE PLAN
The proposed UST system design will incorporate state -of- the -art safety and
control mechanisms that will exceed the State of Indiana and Federal
regulations. However, Ricker Oil believes that release prevention, early
detection and prompt release control are the most effective factors in minimizing
the time required to mitigate a fuel spill.
6.1 UST Operation
1. On -site station employees will be IDEM certified to operate the UST
system; and

Page 7 of 8
2. Suppliers of petroleum product will receive notification of the specific
location of the facility within a wellhead protection area and precautions to
be exercised during product delivery.
6.2 UST Monitoring
1. Monitoring for petroleum free product will be performed in test pit wells
placed within the UST excavation. The wells will be checked on a monthly
basis to verify absence of petroleum product.
2. Petroleum vapors within the soil will be monitored regularly by placement
of permanent monitoring wells in the vicinity of the USTS. The vapor
monitors will be designed to detect any increase in petroleum vapor
concentrations above the background concentrations;
3. Monitoring for groundwater in the vicinity of the USTs will be performed by
placement of permanent monitoring wells in the vicinity of the USTs.
Monitoring wells will be designed on the regional water table fluctuations
and such that the well screen will straddle the water table at all times; and
4. The station will conduct product inventory control and continuous
interstitial monitoring as part of its normal operations;
6.3 Maintenance
1. Store personnel will ensure that trash will be removed from site every day,
lawn will be maintained and adequate lighting will be provided.
2. Signage within the facility and at the dispenser islands will be used to call
h attention to the need for extra care during filling operations.
3. Ricker Oil will implement a routine pavement maintenance plan to inspect
and seal joints in the concrete pavement. Copies of the inspection report
will be made available to the City of Carmel.
7.0 RELEASE RESPONSE & CONTINGENCY PLAN
As stated previously, the proposed UST system design will incorporate state -of-
the -art safety and control mechanisms that will be above and beyond the State of
Indiana and Federal regulations for USTs installed within a WHPA.
The lined detention pond will double as a catchment basin in the event of a large
release. The planned volume of the pond will be sufficient for containing the
contents of an entire fuel tanker in the event of a worst case scenario release.

In case of an emergency, facility employees will push the stop switch located at
the cashier's desk inside the convenience store. The switch will shut -off electrical
power to the pumps connected to the USTs. In case the stop switch does not
function, the main power disconnect switch inside the station convenience store
shall be switched off.
Store management will call the spill to the attention of other employees and
obtain their assistance in stopping and containing the spill using sorbents,
booms, or other material.
A "spill kit" to address minor leaks and spills will be placed on -site. The kit would
include a 55- gallon or larger drum, oil absorbent booms and pads, Oil -Dri or
other granular absorbent material, and plastic sheeting. Station employees will
be trained in the proper use of the "spill kit ". A minor spill is defined as one that
poses no significant harm or threat to human health and safety or the
environment. Response to leaks or spills over five gallons will be addressed by
emergency response contractor(s) and /or an environmental consultant certified
by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management to respond to major or
catastrophic spills.
Ricker Oil will prepare an emergency response plan with spill reporting
procedures following approval of this proposal by the City of Carmel. The report
will outline spill response and spill reporting procedures to be followed by station
employees in case of a spill. Each employee of the facility should be made
aware of the existence and location of the report and its contents. Annual
employee review of the information contained in this plan will be strongly
encouraged. New employees will receive orientation and instruction in spill
response and reporting at the time they begin work. Each employee, upon
Ll training and orientation of this plan, will sign and date the report review log
included as an attachment to this report.

Xerxes' Fiberg0 ass Tanks
A proven tank choice for the petroleum industry
After years of installing bare steel underground storage tanksfor
gasoline and diesel fuel, in the 1960s companies began to realize
that !eakage from steel tanks— because of rust both inside and
outside — caused environmental problems. Since the mid 1960s,
fberglass underground storage tanks (USTs) have provided tank
ownersw h a reliable corrosion -free option that led tofederal reg-
ulations in the late 1980s mandating corrosion - protected tanks.
There are even more reasons to choose a Xerxes fiberglass tank
today. It is compatible with new ethanol- blended fuels and
biodiesels, requires no maintenance to prevent corrosion, and,
unlike steel tanks, accommodates continuous hydrostatic moni-
toring. And in contrast to some other UST products, standing be-
hind every Xerxes petroleum tank is an industry- leading 30 -year
limted warranty.
Today, more than 40 years after their introduction, a large per-
centage of USTs sold in North America are made of fiberglass. In
fact, the tanks installed by the 50 largest fuel marketers in the
United States are overwhelmingly f iberglasstanks. In Canada, it
is estimated that more than 90 percent of tanks installed for pe-
troleum storage are made of fiberglass. As of 2008, more than
150,000 Xeres fiberglasstanks had been installed, and the num-
ber continues to grow.
( In addition to their functional benefits, fiberglass tanks are sig-
nificantly lighter and easier to install than steel tanks because
they eliminate the expense of renting heavy equipment during in-
stallation. Yet another benefit is that fiberglass tanks can often
be moved from an original installation site and be recertified for
installation at a new location.
At Xerxes, we believe in going the extra mile for our customers.
Headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with four manufac-
turing facilities strategically located for economical delivery and
quality service, Xerxes is committed to customer satisfaction
and quality products. Together with our parent company, ZCL
Composites Inc., we are North America's choice in underground
storage — for today and for tomorrow.
Xerxes is dedicated to delivering high - quality products
that help preserve the envirmment.whether in the mid-

The benefits of Xerxes' fiberglass underground storage tanks
The best chaice for underground storage of petroleui products
is a structurally strong, corrosion- resistant, easily installed and
cost -effectiveve�-,:el. ThatIs what a customrfinds in every Xerxes
tank, which Is designed and manufactured 1, %0 high - quality resin
and gl3ss, and features unique integral ribs. Like structural beams,
Integral ribs add strength, and because the rlbs and tank are
made of the same materials- and are manufactured smultane-
ously, the result isan extremely robust product.
The solution to new corrosion concerns
Made of corrosion- resstant materials, Xerxes fiberglass tanks
e'iminate the possibility of either external or internal rusting of
the tank. For years, the concern In the petroleum industry was
about external corrosion. since f ibergl3ss doesn't rust, and steel
can, this gave fberglass tank manufacturers a natural edge.
Today, corrosion concerns in petroleum to nkscenter on internal
corrosion, an even mere pressing matter because cf rrewfuels,
such as ethanol blendsand biodbse6. Together, the removal of
lead from gasoline and the growing popularity of blofuels have
led to heightened avo reress aboutcorresive environments Inside
storage tanks.
A certain amount of voter usually exists in the bottom of tanks,
and thatcan lead to the microbial- inducedcorrosion (MIC) in steel
tanks. Ethanol increases the likelihood of voter in tanks, and the
resulting microbial growth. To date, there is not a single reported
instance in a fiberglass tank of failure due to internal corrosion
caused either by MIC or by eater bottoms: Based on widely dis-
tributed advice, combatting internal corrosion in steel tanks re-
quires regular maintenance —in the form of frequent inspection
for and removal of voter from tank bottoms in contrast, fiber -
glass tanks require no maintenance against corrosion.
Many believe that this new concern about internal corroslon is
the reason the steel Tank institue (Sfl) and some steel -ta nk man-
ufacturers have significantly reduced their warranty coverage,
from 30 to10years. since Xer xesfiberglass tanksarecompatible
with the new biofuels, including E10, US and biedie<el blends,
Xerxes confidently holds to its longstanding 30 -year vorranty,
which explicitly provides 30 Ilea rsof Internal corrosion coverage
"v4th cr without water bottoms."
Why choose a Xerxes' tank?
Fuel compatibility —Xerxes tanks are UL- listed or a l ethanol- blended fuels, including E10 and ESS, and
U " are fully compatible with new diesel blends, including ultra -low sulfur diesel (ULSD) and biodiesel blends.
Maintenance -free — Xerxes does not require the frequent inspection for and removal of tank water
bottoms, which is a time- consuming and expensive maintenance step that is strongly recommended by
the steel tank industry for its products. While some manufacturers' warranties limit coverage when
water bottoms are present, Xerxes' warranty specifically states "with or without water bottoms."
30 -Year warranty — While the warranty duration for many other storage tanks has been drarnatically
reduced in recent years, Xerxes continues to provide a 30 -year limited warranty, backed by the financial
strength of North America's leading storage tank manufacturer.
* Continuous monitoring — Interest is growing In the use of a "continuous monitoring" system in the
interstice of a new double -wall tanic in fact, states such as California have regulations requiring it.
Xerxes' TRUCHEK° hydrostatic monitoring system, with an outstanding 20 -year track record, is the perfect
solution. The alternative vacuum systems in the market (which can be expensive to maintain) have but a
small fraction of the in- service history that TRUCHEK offers.
* Tank of choice — Fiberglass tanks represent the overwhelming choice of the SO largest petroleum
marketers in the United States, based on their annual tank purchases. As die leading supplier of
underground storage tanks, Xerxes is the tank of choice for all petroleum applications, whether retail,
commercial, or industrial.

Xerxes" tanks now offer the benefits of Parabeam"
Xerxes double -wall tanks now feature
Parabeam' 3D glassfabric, a I'ghtweight
yet strong "sandwich' laminate that of-
fers excellent mechanical properties.
Parabean-f" is a unique glass fabric con-
sisting of two decklayerswoven together
by vertical glass piles that form an inte-
gral sandwich structure. When the
Parabeam° Is impregnated with a ther-
moset resin, the fabric rises to the preset "
height, producing a unique laminatewith
a defined interstitial space that can be
monitored hydrostatically or with a dry leak- detectlon system.
ParabearTP is a wholly -owned subsidiary of ZCL, allowing both
s
Xerxes and ZCL to incorporate a proprietary material that has
been successfully used in Canada for more than 12 years.
ZC's Prezerver "' System enhances Xerxes' product line
A new option for Xerxes customers is the ZCL Prezer verT" Sys-
tem. This "system" solution for owners of petroleum fueling fa-
cilities provides a level of equ'pment reliability and third -party
liability protection that is unique in the industry. Atthe center of
the Prezer verT '' System are the industry's leading choices for
product storage: PrezerverT '' double -wall tanks or the ZCL
Phoenix System°, together with a unique and comprehensive
package of insurance protection, which is only available to Prez-
erveP System customers. Additionally, each PrezerveP System
installation has site inspections of critical steps that are docu-
mented by a qualified third -party firm and compiled into a pro-
fessional final inspection report (including photos), which isthen
provided to the owner.
While this program goes beyond federal financial responsibility
(FR) requirements for tank owners, it is designed to comply with
various states' minimum FR requirements. (Check with the spe-
5
cffic requirements of your state) Owners in states that provide a
state fund intended to address FR requirements in lieu of private
insurance will find the broad coverage of the PrezerveP Master
Program of Insurance to bevery attractive, offering a level of cov-
erage that exceeds that of state funds. (See Xerxes' ZCL Prez-
erveP System brochure for more information.)
Each Prezer verT"' System includesthe following components:
• PrezerveP double -wall tank and required accessories
• TRUCHEK° hydrostatic monitoring system
• FRP containment collar and sump with a watertight lid
• prefabricated, engineered, concrete deadmen
• FRP hold -down straps and galvanized turnbuckles
• approved double -wall piping system
o approved f iberglass dispenser sumps
o approved electronic monitoring system for the tanks,
piping and all sumps.
Benefits of ZCUs
• may eliminate the need to purchase /renew annual insurance policies (with unpredictable premium costs) for 10 years
• provides confidence that the fueling system is correctly installed
• provides permanent record of key installation steps, with an Inspection report that Includes photos
• may avoid the need to purchase state- mandated private Insurance — providing significant savings
• coverage for axisting tanks may be available at belovv- rnarket rates (subject to underwrfting requirements)

TRUCHEK' - state -of -the -art continuous monitoring
To enhance the double -wall protection of a Xerxes',* tank, Xerxes offers the option of TRUCHEK, its state -of- the -art system of hydrostatic,
tank monitoring for double-wall tanks. TRUCHEK is an easy, precise and re'iable method for both continuous leak detection and tank -
tightness testing. Like the tanks that Xerxes manufactures, TRUCHEK provides a long, successful record of performance.
Continuous leak detection
For nearly two
decades, the
Xerxes TRUCHEK
system has suc-
cessfully moni-
tored thousands
of tanks �n many
different types of
installations. In
fact, it has be-
come an industry
standard as a
state -of- the -art technique for continuous monitoring. Changing
regulations in some markets, such as California, require that new
double -wall tanks have continuous leakdetection using a constant
vacuum, air pressure or hydrostatic pressure in the interstice of a
double -wall tank. A Xerxes tank w'.th TRUCHEK's continuous leak
detection is the ideal solution for complying with these strict new
requirements.
While being highly effective, TRUCHEK is also simple and trou-
ble -free in both design and operation. With TRUCHEK, simple
monitoring of the fluid level inside the reservoir of a Xerxes dou-
ble -wall tank is all that is necessary. When you order a Xerxes
t double -wall tank with the TRUCHEK option, the interstice be-
tween the two tank walls is filled at the factory with a monitor-
{ ing fluid. This water /calcium - chloride fluid also partially fills a
reservoir on the top of the tank. This creates a hydrostatic pres-
sure throughout the interstice, enabling the operator to monitor
f the walls of both the primary tank and the secondary tank. An
electronic probe placed in the tank's reservoir alarms when the
fluid level either falls below or rises above the acceptable level.
r (See the Xerxes TRUCHEK brochure for more information)
Tank - tightness testing
TRUCHEK also provides a simple, precise and reliable method to
perform a tank - tightness test. It takes into account the impacts
of thermal expansion or contraction of the product, vapor pock-
ets, tank deflection, evaporation, condensation and the location
of the water table. The 10 -hour tightness -test procedure meets
the strict NFPA 329 criteria. A shorter 4 -hour test (while product
is dispensing) exceeds EPAs criteria for a tank - tightness test.

Additional underground storage tank solutions
Whether a customer needs two or three tanks in one, tertiary containment, or an upgrade of an existing single -wall tank, Xerxes has
products that meet a customer's requirements. Together with a full Cne of tank accessories, Xerxes offers customers the most com-
prehensive range of storage tank solutions found in the petroleum equipment industry.
Multicompartment tanks — a popular option for retail marketers
Whether a customer needs two tanks in one, or three tanks in
one, the Xerxes,3 multicompartment fiberglass underground
storage tank offers a superior option for the storage of more
than one product at a site. These Xerxes tanks are a popular
choice among retail gasoline marketers and convenience -store
owners. The ability to store two or three grades of fuel, or gaso-
line and diesel, in a minimal amount of space is particularly ap-
pealing when available property is limited and the amount of
onsite space needed for multiple tanks is difficult to obtain. Cus-
tomers may also find installation and insurance cost savings
when using multicompartment tanks. Some regulatory agencies
require a double -wail bulkhead between certain products, for
instance, between diesel and unleaded fuel. The Xerxes double -
wall multicompartment tank comes standard with a double -
wall bulkhead, while other tank manufacturers' standard
offering requires an upgrade to a double -wall bulkhead. When
TRUCHEKO hydrostatic monitoring is used, all two or three com-
partments are monitored with a single reservoir and sensor.
Triple -wall tanks — the choice when double -wall protection isn't enough
Some customers and regulatory agencies now require even
more enhanced protection than double -wall tanks provide. A
condition such as a sensitive groundwater aquifer, or a nearby
lake or stream is a reason to consider tertiary containment for
underground storage. The Xerxes UL- listed triple -wall tank
OWf',), with an additional Parabeam`� interstice, is the innova-
tive and cost - effective answer when this level of containment is
required. As with all Xerxes double -wall tanks, the triple -wall
model is available with TRUCHEK monitoring or with the use of
a dry interstitial monitoring system. And, like all Xerxes tanks,
.- ;
the triple -wall tank is easy to ship and install, and available from
each of our four U.S. facilities.
The ZCL Phoenix System' — the best choice for existing tank upgrades
In some situations, single -wall tanks that need to be up-
graded to a double -wall tank offer site challenges that make
excavation of existing tanks either cost - prohibitive or ex-
tremely difficult. for instance, tanks installed years ago are
sometimes covered or surrounded by buildings, roads or rail
lines. In such cases, converting a single -wall tank (either fiber-
glass or steel) into a double -wall tank can most efficiently be
done with ZCUs Phoenix System'O. The UL- listed system con-
sists of two corrosion- resistant Iiminates and the propiletary
Parabearnm glass fabric that together create an interstitial
space. The interstice created can be either dry or hydrostati-
cally monitored. The corrosion - resistant UL- listed systern, ap-
plied on site by trained installers, is all -fuels compatible,
including alcohol- blended fuels, E85 and biodiesels. This Is
yet another example of the innovative solutions available to
Xerxes customers. (See the ZCL Phoenix System3 brochure
for more information.)

Ci Why choose a Xerxes tank?
During the last three decades, Xerxes has gained a worldwide reputation as a leader'n underground storage tank technology.
Since its inception in 1979, Xerxes has steadily grown from a tank manufacturer with a small market share to its role today
as the market leader. This recognition can be attributed to the many experienced Xerxes employees who strive to not only
meet but to exceed our customers' requirements. Equally significant is the quality of the tanks and related products that we
manufacture.
Underground storage tanks are not commodity products. Xerxes storage tanks offer customers a number of unique
and significant design and performance differences superior to both competitive fiberglass tanks and steel tanks.
W Consider the following:
Ll Rib Design — Circumferential ribs are an important
design element of any fiberglass underground vessel.
Therefore, the rib geometry and how it's incorporated
into the cylinder, or tank itself, is an important consideration
for designers and customers as they compare products. In
the Xerxes design, with its consistent, high- profile rib
structure, ribs are fabricated directly into the tank
i cylinder — not as a secondary step in the process. This
increases the overall strength of the tank and results
in a structurally superior product.
Parabeam° Construction — As part of our history of continuous improvement,
Xerxes introduced Parabeam, a unique and proprietary three - dimensional glass fabric,
into its underground tank design. Parabeam enhances overall structural integrity by
creating a bond between the primary and secondary cylinder walls, while providing a
free - flowing interstitial space for monitoring capabilities. Another important benefit
is the elimination of false alarms created by fluctuating reservoir levels that can be a
recurring problem in other manufacturers' hydrostatically monitored tanks.
Maintenance -Free — Many manufacturers of steel tanks have reduced their warranty duration from 30 years to 10 years,
and have incorporated language that requires ongoing maintenance and removal of water bottoms as a condition of
warranty coverage. The presence of water in the bottom of fuel tanks is a common condition. Maintenance to frequently
remove it can be expensive over both the short-term and long -term life of a tank, and can also leave an owner vulnerable
to denied warranty claims should a steel tank corrode internally. Xerxes offers a 30 -year limited warranty with no restrictions
regarding water - bottom monitoring and removal.
Company Stability — Over the last 30 years, tank manufacturers have gone out of business or filed for bankruptcy and no
longer provide warranty coverage. Customers who purchase underground tanks do so with the expectation that their tank
will provide many years of trouble -free service, and that the manufacturer will be around to suppport its products and its
warranties. Xerxes has a three - decade record of doing just that.

2.0 SPECIFYING FLEXIBLE PIPING
OPW -FCS's flexible piping systems offers a variety of piping
options for underground fuel delivery applications. Prior to
specifying the type of piping required, read section 6 of this
manual entitled "Pre- Installation Planning ".
2.1 Flex Supply Piping
FlexWorks flexible supply piping is designed for direct burial
as well as indirect burial within flexible ducting for future
replacement capabilities. OPW FCS's supply piping is totally
bonded multi -layer composite construction. The inner -most
barrier layer is smooth, which enhances hydraulic flow
efficiency, and is virtually impervious to gasoline, alcohol
blends and a wide variety of other fuels and chemicals. The
exterior of the pipe also has a barrier layer to protect the
outer wall of the pipe from chemical and microbial attack.
OPW FCS's flexible supply piping is available in double wall
in continuous lengths.
2.2 FlexWorks Double Piping
A UL listed double wall flexible supply piping system that is
designed for installation within Access piping. The outer
containment jacket includes inner stand -off ribs to create a
small interstitial space which allows for optimum fluid
migration, continuous monitoring and easy periodic testing.
This piping features an enhanced construction that meets the
new UL971 standard.
2.3 Access Pipe
Access Pipe is a large diameter
corrugated flexible piping that adds
additional protection to OPW -FCS's
flexible piping and allows the pipeto be
removed and replaced without
excavation. Made of high density
polyethylene, this corrugated tube is
strong enough to withstand H -20
loading requirements when properly
buried and thick enough to minimize
damage from shipping and jobsite handling. Access Pipe
can accommodate the 3/4 ", 1 ", 1 -1/2 ", 2" and 3" Flex supply
pipe.
