Big Tank Inspections

---

I had to inspect a watertower one time 1,200,000 gals. Climbed to the top with a backpack, entered through the top hatch insto a little rubber life raft carried up in the backpack, then paddled round and round with a big light inspecting the walld for cracks and rust levels as they emptied the water out of the tank. Hit the stand pipe at the bottom of the tank and then down the standpipe in my little raft. They let me out when the water got to the lower trap door on the standpipe. Took over eight hours.

One of the worst days I have ever had at work in a 40 year long pharmaceutical industry QC career.

Also had to do safety support and post welding inspection once on a 2,500 gallon Horizonal mounted High purity Sterile Water tank on the roof of a plant in Mountain Home. Tied safety rops to the feet of the welder, who went inside the tank and welded stainless plates over multiple cracks in the walls. If he passed out, my job was to pull him out the manhole door in the tank, or at least say, "Oh Noze, He dead." Sadly, when he finished, I had to go in and inspect his work, while he held the rope tied to my feet. That one took most of a day also.

claustrophobic nightmares

That was the only thing my boss said to me, "You aren't claustrophobic are you?"

Tank wasn't too bad, because light came through the hole in the top of the dome. The standpipe was tough, because basically there was only room for the rubber raft, plus maybe two inches on either side. I did have an auto inflate fishing life jacket on in case the raft popped, which it didn't.

Annual PM to meet FDA CGMP requirements on a drug plant water system is a bitch.

I had a closed plastic container, with a lid.

Ms Squirrel, if was a private plant water system tower (Baxter IV solution plant in Cleveland, MS). We had 3 water wells on site, with a full treatment plant to provide water used to supply the stills make 1,800,000 bottles of IV solution a month.


Hopefully this helps Madam with her page count.

I've become pretty claustrophobic over the years, there were a couple of parts of SERE/survival training that were pretty rough on me because of that
