Holmberg Tank Reservoir 2024 Inspection Report.

end

 

 

Background:

From the February 27, 2024, meeting:

The Cortech analysis has been completed. There were several recommendations.

 

There was a question on piping. It read “a combination inlet and outlet pipe tree runs horizontally across the floor of the tank. The tank fills through rubber duck bills and drains through lower valves. Due to the use of stainless-steel screens over the outlet valves galvanic corrosion can be observed forming along the length of the piping”. The evaluation doesn’t state what to use in place of stainless steel. Chairman Lynch will ask Mauricio Duarte, GU General Foreman Water Operations for clarification.

 

ACTION ITEM: Find out what material should be used in place of stainless steel for the screens over the outlet valves.

 

ACTION ITEM: Get estimates from Groton Utilities on the cost of implementing the recommendations in the Cortech analysis.
