The document addresses questions and answers for the FY26WTRTNKKT – Water Tank Survey, focusing on the cleaning and maintenance of water tanks according to AWWA C652 guidelines. Key points include the requirement for tanks to be drained for manual cleaning or cleaned while full by certified divers/ROVs, and the necessity of clean and disinfected scaffolding if used. Sediment and sludge must be disposed of off-base at a licensed facility due to potential hazards and NDEP regulations. A Certified Water Operator is required to oversee or execute cleaning activities to ensure compliance with Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) and AWWA D102-24 standards. Sodium hypochlorite is an approved disinfectant, but thorough flushing is crucial to prevent volatile reactions. The project timeline is subject to various factors like weather and water consumption. Contractors are responsible for removing all debris and disposing of cleaning solutions and rinsing water off-site in accordance with NDEP regulations. Water will not be available on-site for the cleaning crew, and while access ladders are present, contractors must bring their own for safety.
