Check lightning arresters and grounds, and measure the
c)
resistance of grounds. A maximum value of five to 10 ohms is
permissible. Contact NAVFAC EFD for further information.
d) Test insulating oil in transformers, regulators, switches,
circuit breakers, and other equipment; if unsatisfactory,
filter such oil and test again. If still unsatisfactory,
replace the oil. After the oil is removed, flush out and clean
oil reservoirs, tanks, and unit cores.
Checked and tested live-line tools should be removed from
e)
storage and placed in an accessible location. All live-line
tools showing deterioration should be tested and repaired prior

Potable Water Inactivation
2.5.5
General. The potable water
system of the installation is vital to
2.5.5.1
the public health of base personnel as
well as the adjacent civilian populace.
Changes to the water system layout may
require approval by local, state,
federal, and applicable DOD regulatory
agencies.
Environmental Engineering. Consult the EFD Environmental
a)
Branch in the technical planning stages of installation
deactivation about the water and wastewater system operation,
the layout, and the coordination with regulatory agencies
involved.
Civilian Populations. Civilians, who draw upon a station's
b)
water system and are served by the station's wastewater system,
should be informed when the station is to be placed in inactive
status. Water supply in sufficient quantity and quality should
be provided to serve the continuing requirements of the
station's personnel and equipment, including fire protection,
flushing, and irrigation. Adequate skilled operating personnel
must be retained for water and wastewater facilities that are
left in operation. Inactivated equipment should be tagged
"SECURED" and dated.
Chlorine Cylinders. Other than those required for operation,
c)
chlorine cylinders should be returned to the point designated
by base management.
Water System. If the water supply for the active station was
2.5.5.2
chlorinated, chlorination should be continued during inactivation. Adequate
chlorinator capacity should be made immediately available to maintain the
required residual in case of fire or other heavy demand upon the water supply.
