system. Have the appropriate EPA officials certify the system
ready for use.
Tank and Pipeline Appurtenances. Remove, clean, and recoat

strainers with light oil (make sure gaskets are tight) prior to recharging the
system.
Check
a)
Reinstall tank level controls and check their operation.
to make sure that tank level alarms work properly.
b) Clean and reinstall water control solenoids and pressure-
reducing valves. Examine valves left in place for corrosion or
cracks and repair them as required. Clean and close plug
valves that were left open. Identify and retag each valve,
checking the existing piping network diagrams.
c)
Reinstall all meters and check them for proper operation.
Towers and Platforms. Only allow climbers trained for antenna

rigging, tower maintenance, and climbing electricians to access elevated
platforms and towers. Inspections should be thorough and include guy cable
inspection, guy cable tension, foundation condition, anchorage condition, and
structural inspections. Also, tower profiles should be checked against
engineered criteria. Particular attention should be paid to bolted joints and
welded stiffeners. Galvanized towers are sometimes painted for aviation
visibility. Look for blistering paint that signifies loose paint covering
corrosion. For special guidance, contact NAVFAC Code 04BC, the antenna
systems consultant.
Check electrical systems, including conduits, junction boxes,
antenna cabling, and obstruction lights, prior to energizing and reusing.
In areas where a high radio frequency might dictate, ensure the
proper clearances are maintained at the base of the tower using appropriate
non-conductive fence material and effective grounding design.
Pools. The pool should be uncovered and cleaned prior to being
2.3.2.5
reactivated. Painting may also be necessary. Pool equipment should then be
reactivated, the pool filled, and the water chemically treated.
