Water Storage Facilities Comprehensive Inspection Checklist
Use this checklis to help you inspect the exterior of the storage reservoir and grounds daily for evidence of intrusion, vandalism, security integrity, general gross structural conditions (visible from the exterior), and obvious leakage from pipes.
Exterior coating or concrete surface (as applicable) condition
Foundations and visible footings
Geotechnical and drainage features
Structural components, such as columns, beams, stiffeners and wind rods
Points of pipe penetrations and seals
Concrete joints and cracks that may result in leakage
Ladders, vents and safety devices
Interior surface / coating condition
Cathodic protection system
Overflow and drain pipes, weir boxes, vents, and screens
Interior sediments type and amount
Biofilm conditions (if any)
Valve chamber and all associated structural, mechanical, and electrical components
Floating reservoir covers and tensioning systems (if any)
If sediments are found during inspections, samples should be analyzed for content and source.
If leaks are suspected or found during a comprehensive inspection, more detailed inspection should be done to determine the source and extent.
