EBI was awarded contract NO. N62467-95-C-0796 for the construction
of a new fueling system at Barksdale AFB. The system is for fueling government vehicles and B-52 Bomber support
vehicles. The project consisted of installing six double wall, FRP UST with a total of 100,000 gallons of capacity
of four (4) products (gasoline, diesel, JP-8, De-icer). New double wall FRP piping was installed to a total of
ten (10) dispensers for four (4) bulk handling pumps. More than two miles of underground piping were placed ranging
in size from 2" to 6". The new bulk product handling rack had operating rates of 325 gpm. Mechanical
requirements included Gorman Rupp centrifugal pumps, Liquid Control flow meter, OCV electric solenoid and truck
loading two state control valves, and vapor recovery systems. The entire system was monitored for high level/low
level product and water infiltration into interstices and sumps. Scheduled interruptions were limited to a total
of seven days. The government required an extensive quality control program by the Contractor to reduce rework
items and omissions.
