LEAK LOOKOUT
PAGE1
Why Worry About Leak
Detection?
Because your tank or its piping may leak.
As many as 25 percent of all underground
storage tanks (USTs) may how be leaking.
Many more will leak in the near future—
possibly yours. In fact, your tank or its
piping might be leaking now, although you
may not know it. If a tank system is past
its prime (that is, over 10 years old), espe-
cially if it's not protected against corrosion,
the potential for leaking increases dramati-
cally. Newer tank systems, particularly the
piping, can also leak. Don't let your profits
drain away.
Because it's the law. And it's the law for
a good reason. Much of our country
depends upon ground water for drinking
water, and leaked or spilled petroleum can
contaminate this vital resource. Explo-
sions are another potential hazard of leaks.
Federal requirements for tank systems,
excluding home heating and small farm
tanks, will become effective at the end of
1988. Many State and local governments
already require specific steps to prevent,
detect, or clean up leaks; and others will
soon have similar requirements. Check
with your State and local governments to
learn what requirements apply to you.
*« j«LJ
uttiSw **£**il
Because it's in your best interest. Leak-
ing UST sites can be very costly to clean
up. Imagine how much money you'd lose
if your tank could not be used for weeks
during lengthy cleanups or if local resi-
dents sued you for property damages. The
costs can run into the thousands—perhaps
as much as $500,000 and more. Detect
and clean up leaks before they hurt you
financially.
Because it's for the good of your commu-
nity and the environment. Petroleum
leaks can have serious .and far-reaching
consequences, such as the contamination
of soil, drinking water supplies, and air.
Petroleum and its resulting poisonous
vapors can also accumulate in nearby
confined spaces, such as septic tanks and
home basements, and can cause fires or
explosions. Communities across the
nation have suffered disasters resulting
from petroleum leaks. Don't let it happen
to yours.

How Can This Brochure
Help Me?
If you own or operate an underground
storage tank that holds petroleum products
such as gasoline, diesel fuel, or oil, you
should know that there are detectors on the
market that can warn you about a leak. If
you choose an external leak detector, this
brochure will help you select the best one
for your underground storage tank. It
won't tell you which product to buy or
rank equipment from best to worst, but it
will give you the background you need on
external devices to ask the right questions
when you speak with vendors about their
products. You should also check with the
State or local agency responsible for
underground storage tanks in your area to
find out what rules apply to you. Qf you
are not sure which agency to contact, start
with your local fire department.)
This brochure will answer questions
about:
• The purpose of external leak
detectors;
• Equipment and installation costs;
• Compatibility with your current
tank;
• The types of detectors on the
market;
• How external leak detectors work;
• The pros and cons of various
types of equipment; and
• What companies sell external
leak detectors.

How Does an External Leak
Detection System Work?
An external leak detection system has two
main components: (1) the leak detector
itself, and (2) one or more monitoring
wells. External detectors range from
simple, hand-held devices to sophisticated
automatic equipment If a leak occurs,
petroleum liquid and vapor flow into
nearby monitoring wells near the tank,
where they are detected by the leak detec-
tion device. Some detectors use sensors
located inside the monitoring wells to
trigger an alarm in a central control panel;
others test samples of water or air taken
from the wells. (See Figure 1, below).

How Much Will It Cost?
External leak detectors range in price from
about $100 for a basic manual detector to
more than $14,000 for a high-end auto-
matic system. Detectors
that respond to petro-
leum vapors are usually
more expensive than
those that respond to
liquid.
Installation costs, which include the cost
of putting in the monitoring wells, vary
considerably. But maintenance is rela-
tively inexpensive for most models. By
doing some comparison shopping, you can
find an external leak detector that does the
job and fits your budget.
How Do I Know I'm Getting a
Good System?
Although some external leak detectors
have been used with petroleum under-
ground storage tanks for a number of
years, many are new or have been used for
other purposes. The newer models may
work as well as those used in the past, but
you'll need to make an extra effort to
ensure that you're getting the right system.
That's why it's important to talk with
several vendors and obtain as much infor-
mation as possible about their products.
Find out how long their equipment has
been on the market and how it has been
used in the past. You'll also want to check
to make sure the equipment you purchase-
meets State and local requirements.
Your leak detector should come with
detailed operating instructions and be
backed by a warranty. You should have
the detector checked every year by the
company that sold you the equipment to
ensure that it is working properly.
Can I Install the Leak Detector
Myself?
No, it takes someone with specific techni-
cal knowledge to install monitoring wells
and leak detection equipment. In addition,
some States require installer certification,
and others may do so in the future. Many
vendors install leak detectors and monitor-
ing wells themselves. If not, they can
usually recommend an experienced con-
tractor to do the installation. Remember,
this is a lifetime investment that can save
you trouble and money in the future.
Don't try to cut corners on installation
and end up with a system that doesn't
do the job.
Do I Need Special Training to
Operate the System?
If the company that sold you the equip-
ment offers a training class,, it would be
worthwhile to attend. If not, ask the
company's representative to walk you
through the testing procedures, and see if
there is a' 'hotline'' number to call if you
have a problem. Be sure to read and
follow all instructions that come with the
detector whether you have a manual or
automatic device.
-------
PAGE 5
Who Should Be Responsible
for the Leak Detector?
If you can't do it yourself, you should
depend on a person who will follow the
monitoring and testing procedures out-
lined in the instructions and record all
readings accurately. The benefit to you is
protection against ground water contami-
nation, which can be very costly to clean
up.
Can I Use an External Detector
with My Current Tank?
In most cases, the answer is yes. But you
have to consider two key factors: (1) the
type of backfill in the excavation zone
surrounding the tank (tank systems are
buried in an ' 'excavation zone,'' which
extends from 1 to 3 feet beyond the tank
on all sides), and (2) whether the soil
around the tank has been contaminated
by petroleum.
Backfill: Leak detectors work best when
a porous material such as pea gravel or
sand is used for backfill within the excava-
tion zone. Leaking liquids and vapors
flow rapidly through this type of soil to
monitoring wells.
Clay soils, which are not porous, should
not be used as backfill with an external
detection system, because clay will delay
leaking petroleum-particularly liquid
petroleum—from reaching monitoring
wells. However, an external detector can
be used in an area with clay soil as long as
a porous material is used as backfill. Most
underground storage tanks installed in
recent years have a pea gravel backfill, but
many older tanks are surrounded by
whatever type of soil happens to be at
the site.
The equipment installer should check the
type of backfill and the level of existing
contamination before installing your leak
detector. You should check with the
vendor or installer to make sure that these
tests are performed and that the device you
plan to buy will work under the conditions
at your site. Find out if your vendor has
installed other leak detectors in your area
and whether there have been any problems.
Existing contamination: If you install a
leak detector at your existing tank site, it
must be able to detect any new leaks even
though there may already be contamination
from a prior leak or spill. External leak de-
tectors work best when the soil and ground
water near the tank are clean.
What Kind of Equipment
Do I Need?
There is a wide range of equipment to
choose from. In the survey of vendors, the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
identified nearly 50 companies that sell
external leak detectors, and many of them
offer several models. There are other com-
panies that sell external leak detectors that
were not covered by the survey.
-------
PAGE 6
External leak detectors come in two
categories-those triggered by liquid fuel
and those that react to vapor.
In addition, some leak detectors are
"intermittent," which means you must
perform manual tests at regular intervals,
while others are "continuous"--they
operate automatically. Here are some
things to consider when deciding which
type will best suit your needs:
Liquid vs.
Vapor
Liquid detectors: Liquid detectors work
best in areas where the ground water is
close to the surface, making the soil
around the tank wet Leaking fuel seeps
down through the soil to the ground water
and floats on the surface of the water as it
is carried to monitoring wells. Liquid
detectors are suitable for use with most
petroleum products.
Vapor detectors: Vapor detectors work
best in places where the ground water is
deep and the soil around the tank is dry.
However, vapor detectors will work in
shallow ground water conditions if sensors
installed in the monitoring wells are not
actually under water. Vapor detectors
react more quickly to leaks man liquid
detectors, because vapor spreads more
quickly than liquid. But vapor detectors
are highly sensitive and, therefore, more
likely to give false readings, and they may
require more maintenance than liquid
devices. Vapor detectors work best with
fuels that produce a large amount of
fumes, such as gasoline.
Manual vs. Automatic
There is no simple rule to help you decide
whether to use a manual leaik detector or
an automatic one. The decision depends
on a number of factors incMding your
financial resources, the soil around your
tank, the number of tanks and sites, and
the fuels being stored. Here are some
things to consider:
Manual detectors: Manual, detectors are
easier to use and less expensive than
automatic devices; but they require
monthly tests at all tank locations, and a
record must be kept of the results. Manual
detectors let you know immediately if
petroleum liquid or vapor is present in a
monitoring well, although iftey only work
when you are testing.
If you can take the time to do the tests and
keep accurate records of the results, a
manual system may be cost-effective. If
not, you're probably better off with an
automatic system.
Automatic detectors: Automatic detectors
are usually more expensive: than hand
operated ones; but they cam be less time
consuming to operate, because you don't
have to perform routine tests as you do
with manual devices. Automatic detectors
are working all the time and will send a
warning signal if petroleum liquid or
vapor enters a monitoring well. Some
devices send the signal within minutes
after petroleum is detected, others can take
as long as 20 minutes. Except for regular
maintenance, you don't have to spend
much time monitoring the system.

How Do External Leak
Detectors Work?
Here is a brief description of the main
types of external leak detectors and their
strengths and weaknesses:
Manual Liquid Detectors
The two most commonly used manual
liquid leak detectors are "grab samplers"
and chemical-sensitive pastes. In grab
sampling, a clear container with a valve on
one end-known as a bailer-is lowered
into a monitoring well and then removed.
If fuel is present, layers of petroleum will
be suspended in the water like an oil slick.
In the second method, a tape measure
treated with special paste is placed in a
monitoring well. If fuel is present, the
paste changes color. (See Figure 3, next
column.)
Strengths: Manual liquid detectors are
widely used because they are inexpensive,
accurate, and easy to operate.
Weaknesses: Manual liquid detectors
provide limited information about the type
of contamination found. (However,
chemical analysis can identify the material
collected by grab sampling.) They do not
allow for continuous monitoring as do
automatic devices; therefore, someone
must take time to perform routine tests.
Figure 3. Chemical-Sensitive! Pastes with
Tape Measure
Automatic Liquid Detectors
There are three types of automatic liquid
detectors. Interface probes operate by
beaming light through a probe located in a
shaft near the tank. If there is liquid in the
shaft, the light beam is interrupted and a
signal goes off in the control panel;
another sensor determines whether the
liquid is water or petroleum. Another
type, known as a product soluble device,
has a cable or hose made of material that
dissolves in petroleum. The cable or hose
-------

is suspended in a monitoring well, and if
petroleum is present, it will dissolve the
material and trigger an alarm. A third, the
thermal conductor, uses a sensor with a
heating element that floats in a monitoring
well. If petroleum is present, a change in
the rate of heat loss triggers an alarm.
(See Figure 4, above.)
Strengths: Some automatic liquid detec-
tors have been on the market for 15 years,
and thousands of them are in use. The
central control panels have a long service
life and can accommodate multiple sen-
sors. One type~the product soluble
device-detects both petroleum liquid and
vapor.
Weaknesses: Interference by ultraviolet
light, water vapor, ice, and other sub-
stances can trigger false readings. The
response time varies from one model to
another.
Manual Vapor Detectors
There are at least six different categories
of manual vapor detectors. The basic
mechanism is that a sample of water or air
from a monitoring well comes into contact
with a flame, heating element, ultraviolet
light, or other material within the detector.
If petroleum is present, an electrical or
chemical change occurs and can be seen
by reading a meter or gauge.
Strengths: Some manual vapor detectors
have been commercially available for 10
years, and many are currently in use,
although not necessarily for petroleum
underground storage tank leak detection.
They are highly sensitive and respond
within seconds. Some models can identify
the exact material that has been detected.
Control panels have a long service life.
Weaknesses: Manual vapor detectors
require special maintenance, making them
time consuming to operate. They are
subject to interference, which can result in
false readings. The central control panels
usually support only one sensor; if you
have more than one monitoring well, you
will need additional devices. However
some devices are portable so you only
need one even if you have more than one
monitoring well.
