Headphones are used during test to listen for air ingress signal. Noise signals are tape recorded rather that recording the noise levels in decibels. Vacuum test method may not be effective in some tank excavation backfill (such as clay) because it may plug holes in tank. If soil is saturated with product, air or water ingress may not be detected by vacuum test. A well point in tank excavation backfill may help identify presence of this condition.

A flow metering device is used to introduce flow while measuring pressure. 2.2 The volumetric leak rates through the PN valve under positive and negative pressures are determined by measuring the leak flow rate at the corresponding performance specification pressures specified in CP-201 or as requested by the applicant. 2.3 For the positive and negative cracking pressure tests, three (3) replicate test runs shall be conducted sequentially, and the average of the three runs shall be reported for the test results. 2.4 The valves are tested while connected to the vent pipe(:;) using a ball valve, or other valves, as shown in Figure 1. 2.5 The PN valve shall not be cracked (i.e., by test or vapor recovery system personnel) prior to the first pressure/vacuum cracking test each day (i.e., each certification test day). The "1St crack" per test day should be included in the average result reported. While PN valve operation as associated with the GDF will not be monitored, there must be no maintenance or testing of the PN valve for at least twenty-four hours prior to the pressure/vacuum cracking tests. 3. BIASES AND INTERFERENCES 3.1 Installing a PN valve onto the test stand in a manner that is not in accordance with the manufacturer's recommended installation instructions can produce erroneous results. 3.2 Leaks in the test stand or test equipment can produce erroneous results. 3.3 For certification testing, ball valves used to isolate R(V valves on vent stacks may leak if not functioning correctly or if not closed completely. Such conditions may lead to erroneous results in the leak rate determinations. leak rate test results not meeting the CP-201 standards should not be conside,ed as due solely to the PN valve unless the ball valve is demonstrated to be leak free. 4. METHOD SENSITIVITY, RANGE, AND PRECISION 4.1 Positive and Negative Cracking Pressures: The sensitivity and range of the tests are dependent on the minimum readability and measurement range of the manometer (see Section 5.4). The method precision has been estimated to be±9.3% and ±4.0% for the positive and negative cracking pressure tests, respectively. Note that this precision information may be reviewed/updated by the Executive Officer as additional information becomes available. 4.2 Positive and Negative Leak Flow Rates: The sensitivity and range of the tests are dependent on the minimum readability and measurement range of the flow metering devices (see Section 5.5). The method precision for leak flow rates has not been estimated and may be added by the Executive Officer as additional information becomes available. California Air Resources Board January, 2006 Draft TP-201.1 E CERT, Page 2 6. PRE-TEST PROCEDURES 6.1 All pressure measuring devices(s) shall be bench tested for accuracy using a reference gauge, incline manometer or National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)traceable standard at least once every six (6) months. Accuracy checks shall be performed at a minimum of 5 points (e.g., 10, 25, 50, 75 and 90 percent of full scale) each for both positive and negative pressure readings. Accuracy shall meet the requirements of Section 5.4. 6.2 Electronic manometers shall be allowed to `warm-up' for the manufacturer's required warm-up time and zeroed to atmosphere immediately prior to each test. The manometer must not be zeroed while connected to the test equipment. 6.3 The MFMs shall be tested for accuracy using a reference meter or NIST traceable standard. Accuracy checks shall be performed at a minimum of five points (e.g., at 10, 20, 50, 80 and 100 percent of full-scale range) and shall take place at a minimum of once every six (6) months. Accuracy shall meet the requirements of Section 5.5. The accuracy checks should be conducted at 1) 10 psig inlet pressure and 2) -25 inches mercury outlet vacuum (as used for the negative leak and cracking tests). 6.4 Perform an equipment leak check. 6.4.1 If testing a PN valve on a test stand, install a 2-inch cap onto the NPT threads in place of the PN Valve using pipe sealant or Teflon tape. If the site is equipped with ball valves and test ports (i.e., for certification sites), connect the two test lines (that would normally be connected to the test ports on the vent stack) to each other using a quick connect coupler (see Figure 2). 6.4.2 Check all fittings for tightness and proper assembly. 6.4.3 Conduct the positive tests as specified in Sections 7.2. 6.4.4 If the measured leak rate is < 2 ml/min then proceed to Section 7. 6.4.5 If the measured leak rate is > 2 ml/min then troubleshoot and resolve the leak problem before proceeding to Section 7. 7. TEST PROCEDURE 7.1 If using a test stand, install the PN valve in an upright position following the installation instructions provided by the manufacturer. Incorrectly installing the valve will invalidate any pressure versus flow rate measurement. If conducting a certification test with the PN valve installed on the vent pipe, configure the test assembly per Figure 1. 7.2 Positive Leak Rate. Slowly open the needle valve on the test assembly until the pressure stabilizes at the positive leak rate pressure described in Section.3 of CP-201 or in the system application. Maintain steady state pressure for at least ten (10) seconds by using the control valve. Steady state is indicated by a pressure California Air Resources Board January, 2006 Draft TP-201.1 E CERT, Page 4 results of all runs on the data sheet and use the average to report the result of the test. If the leak rate test result is greater than the specification stated in CP-201 then proceed to Section 7.6. 7.5 Negative Cracking Pressure. Open the bypass valve to route the flow outside of the test assembly. Open the control valve on the test assembly to establish a negative flow rate of 200 ml/min. Once the correct flow rate is established, close the bypass valve to route the flow into the test assembly. Observe the pressure. The PN valve should "crack" at a pressure within the range of negative cracking pressure as described in Section 3of CP-201 or in the system application. This is marked by a brief leveling off then a slight drop in vacuum. Record the cracking pressure (highest vacuum achieved) on the data sheet and open the bypass valve. Run the cracking test two more times (i.e., total of three replicates). Record all values on the data sheet and report the average of the three runs. The value recorded by the digital manometer as the maximum pressure achieved ("max hold") during the test run shall be used for reporting purposes. Also see the "note" in Section 7.3 for cautions on the use of the digital manometer. 7.6 Leak Rate Failure. If the PN valve fails the positive or negative leak rate test, then disconnect the lines from the quick connect fittings on the PN valve vent pipe (or test stand). Connect the two lines to each other using a quick connect coupler(see Figure 2). Run the leak rate procedure (as specified in Section 7.2) to verify that there is no leak in the test assembly (i.e., exactly as used during the test that failed). This will be using the 0-200 ml/min MFM. If the result of the check on this configuration of the test assembly shows a leak(i.e., > 10 ml/min; i.e., > 5% of full scale)then troubleshoot and resolve the leak point and re-run the PN valve leak rate test. If the result of the above leak rate test is < 10 ml/miin, then reconfigure the test assembly to use the 0-20 ml/min MFM and re-conduct the leak rate test. If the result of the check on the test assembly shows a leak problem (i.e.,>2 ml/min) then troubleshoot and resolve the problem and re-run the PN valve leak rate test. If no leak rate greater than 2 ml/min is observed in the test assembly, then remove the PN valve (refer to Figure 1), cap the 2"vent pipe and conduct the leak rate procedure (as specified in Section 7.2) to verify that there is no leak(i.e., > 2 ml/min) in the ball valve. If the results of the checks on the test assembly and PN vent ball valve show no leaks then report the average of results of the three F/V valve test replicates. As noted in Section 3.2 and 3.3, leak rate test results not meeting the CP-201 specifications should not be considered as due solely to the PN valve unless the test equipment and ball valve are demonstrated to be leak free.

ALTERNATIVE TEST PROCEDURES This procedure shall be conducted as specified. Any modifications to this test procedure shall not be used unless prior written approval has been obtained from the Executive Officer pursuant to section 14 of CP-201.

Appropriate certification testing shall be determined and conducted in accord with sound engineering principles and accepted engineering evaluation criteria. 2. PRINCIPLE AND SUMMARY OF TEST PROCEDURE 2.1 Using Methodologies 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6, the dynamic back pressure during vehicle fueling is simulated by passing nitrogen through the vapor recovery system at specified rates. The resultant dynamic back pressure is measured using a pressure gauge, or equivalent device. Methodologies 2 and 3 are included for those systems that utilize both bellows-equipped nozzles and a remote vapor check valve. Methodology 5 is a direct measurement of the pressure at the nozzle/fillpipe interface during gasoline dispensing. 3. BIASES AND INTERFERENCES 3.1 Any leaks in the nozzle vapor path, fillpipe interface, vapor hose, or underground vapor return piping may result in erroneously low dynamic back pressure measurements. 3.2 Testing of systems that have liquid condensate traps in the underground vapor return piping that contain liquid at the time of the test may result in erroneously high dynamic back pressure measurements. 3.3 Measuring dynamic back pressure without waiting a minimum of 30 seconds for the flow of nitrogen to stabilize may result in erroneous back pressure measurements. 4. SENSITIVITY, RANGE AND PRECISION 4.1 The minimum and maximum dynamic back pressures that can be measured are dependent upon available pressure gauges. The recommended mechanical or electronic pressure gauge ranges are described in Sections 4.2 and 4.3. 4.2 If mechanical pressure gauges are used, the minimum diameter of the gauge face shall be four inches; the minimum accuracy shall be 3.0 percent of full scale and the minimum readability shall be 5.0 percent of full scale. 4.2.1 Methodology 1. 0-0.5 and 0-1 inches H2O. 4.2.2 Methodology 2. 0-0.5 and 0-1 inches H2O. 4.2.3 Methodology 3. 0-0.5 and 0-1 inches H2O. 4.2.4 Methodology 4. 0-0.25 inches H2O. 4.2.5 Methodology 5. -1-0-+1 inches H2O. 4.2.6 Methodology 6. 0-0.5 and 0-1 inches H2O.

PRE-TEST PROCEDURES 6.1 Methodologies 1, 2 & 3. The following subsections are applicable for those Phase II systems where a limitation is imposed on the dynamic back pressure between the nozzle and the gasoline storage tank. If a central vacuum system is used, this device shall be turned off during this test. 6.1.1 Assemble a Dynamic Back Pressure Test Assembly as shown in Figure 1, ensuring that the rotameter control valve is closed.

This may be accomplished by using either a vapor recovery elbow or a Dynamic Pressure Release Assembly, as shown in Figure 2. 6.2 Methodology 4. 6.2.1 Assemble the Capped "T Assembly as shown in Figure 3. 6.2.2 With the Capped "T"Assembly open to atmosphere, flow nitrogen through the assembly at each specified flowrate. Record any back pressure on the appropriate data sheet. Allow a minimum of 30 seconds for the nitrogen flow to stabilize before taking back pressure measurement. 6.2.3 Open the Phase I vapor poppet for the affected tank(s), using either methodology described in 6.1.8.

California Air Resources Board July 3, 2002 TP-201.4, Page 6 7.1.2 Open the nitrogen cylinder, set the delivery pressure to 5 psig. Use the rotameter control valve to adjust the flowrate to lowest of the required nitrogen flowrates. Care must be taken to ensure that the initial flowrate through the rotameter does not exceed the lowest specified in the certification Executive Order. If nitrogen has been introduced in excess of the minimum flowrate, then liquid must be introduced, pursuant to section 6.1.5, to conduct a valid test. Allow a minimum of 30 seconds for the nitrogen flow to stabilize before taking back pressure measurement. 7.1.3 A pulsating gauge needle indicates nitrogen passing through a liquid obstruction in the vapor return system. If this occurs, close the rotameter control valve, disengage the nozzle, and redrain the nozzle and hose assembly. Re-engage the nozzle, open the rotameter control valve and repeat Section 7.1.2. 7.1.4 The following information shall be recorded on the field data sheet, as shown on Form 1: (a) Dispenser Number and Product Grade (b) Nozzle manufacturer and model (c) Nitrogen flowrate, CFH (d) Dynamic back pressure, inches H2O 7.1.5 Repeat Sections 7.1.1 through 7.1.4 for each additional nitrogen flowrate specified in the certification Executive Order, from the lowest remaining flowrate to the highest. 7.1.6 Remove the vapor recovery elbow or Dynamic Pressure Release Assembly from the Phase I poppet and replace the dust cap. 7.2 Methodology 2. Phase II balance and Hirt systems, which utilize both bellows- equipped. nozzles and a fuel-activated remote vapor check valve, may be tested using the following methodology. 7.2.1 Disconnect the vapor recovery hose from the remote vapor check valve. Test the nozzle/hose assembly pursuant to Section 7.1.1 through 7.1.4, and record the results on the field data sheet as shown in Form 2. 7.2.2 Disconnect the vapor check valve and connect a compatible "T" fitting, as shown in Figure 3, to the dispenser at that location. 7.2.3 Connect the nitrogen supply to the "T" assembly. 7.2.4 Repeat Sections 7.1.2 through 7.1.5. In addition to the information required in Section 7.1.4, record both the make and model of the remote vapor check valve. 7.2.5 Record on the field data sheet the pressure drop across the remote vapor check valve. This data is available from the manufacturer. 7.2.6 Add the dynamic back pressures, for each required nitrogen flowrate, obtained from Sections 7.2.1, 7.2.4 and 7.2.5 as shown in Form 2. 7.2.7 Disconnect the "T" fitting from the dispenser and re-connect the vapor check valve. 7.2.8 Remove the vapor recovery elbow or Dynamic Pressure Release Assembly from the Phase I poppet and replace the dust cap. California Air Resources Board July 3, 2002 TP-201.4, Page 8 7.5 Methodology 5 Those bellows-equipped Phase II systems subject to regulatory limitations on the dynamic back pressure at the nozzle/fillpipe interface during gasoline dispensing shall use the following methodology. 7.5.1 Assemble the Donut Pressure Test Assembly, shown in Figure 4. 7.5.2 Insert the nozzle spout through the inner hole of the donut. 7.5.3 Insert and latch the nozzle in the vehicle fiHpipe. Visually ensure that a tight connection is made between the donut and fillpipe. 7.5.4 Activate the dispenser and set the nozzle hold-open latch on low. After at least one gallon has been dispensed start the stopwatch. Dispense a minimum of four gallons of gasoline. The following data shall be recorded on the field data sheet as shown in Form 4: (a) Dispenser Number and gasoline grade (b) Gallons dispensed during test (c) Maximum dynamic back pressure, inches H2O (d) Minimum dynamic back pressure, inches H2O (e) The average dispensing rate, gallons per rninute 7.5.5 This Methodology shall only be conducted with the Phase I vapor poppet closed, since gasoline is being dispensed during the test. 7.6 Methodology 6. This procedure verifies proper drainage of gasoline from the base of the vent pipe to the gasoline storage tank. 7.6.1 After verifying certification or compliance with the dynamic back pressure standards, pursuant to the applicable of Methodologies 1, 2, 3, or 4, close the Phase I vapor poppet. 7.6.2 Remove the pressure/vacuum (P/V) valve(s)from each vent pipe. 7.6.3 Carefully pour a minimum of 5 gallons of gasoline down each vent pipe. 7.6.4 Wait at least 15 minutes. 7.6.5 Open the Phase I poppet(s) on all affected tanks, per section 6.1.8. 7.6.6 Install the Vent Pipe Pressure Assembly as shown in Figure 5. 7.6.7 Connect the nitrogen supply to the Vent Pipe Pressure Assembly. 7.6.8 Open the nitrogen cylinder and adjust the flowrate to 60 CFH. 7.6.9 After a minimum of 30 seconds, record the dynamic back pressure. 7.6.10 A dynamic back pressure, from the top of the vent pipe to the storage tank, of less than 0.5 inches H2O shall be considered acceptable. 7.6.11 Repeat steps 7.6.6 through 7.6.10 for each vent stack that has a P/V valve. 7.6.12 Remove the Vent Pipe Pressure Assembly from the vent pipe and replace the pressure/vacuum (P/V)valve(s). 7.6.13 Remove the vapor recovery elbow or Dynamic Pressure Release Assembly from the Phase I poppet and replace the dust cap.

Both are conducted after the system has passed the applicable static pressure leak test. Vapor manifolds at the storage tank vents imust be removed and the vent lines plugged. The first option involves the introduction of nitrogen at the dispensers during TP-201.4. The Phase I drybreak of one tank is held open by a compatible cap with a center probe to open the poppet and several holes drilled in the top to relieve pressure while the other tank drybreaks are closed. 'The open drybreak is the only outlet for the nitrogen. If the tank is manifolded to the dispenser, then the nitrogen will flow out the drybreak. The procedure is repeated for each tank. If two tanks have a liquid manifold but not a vapor manifold and only one of the two tanks is tied to the vapor return line from the islands, gases will flow out of the tank that does not have a vapor manifold due to hydraulic pressure. The two tanks act like a U-tube water manometer with pressure in one tank pushing up the liquid level in the other. However, this creates back pressures that will exceed the back pressure limits of TP-201.4. When that happens, the two tanks either don't have a vapor manifold or the vapor connection is blocked. The second option is exercised immediately following TP-201.3 where the storage tank vents are not manifolded and/or are plugged. Thi_ drybreak at each tank is opened one at a time. If nitrogen doesn't flow out, the tank is not manifolded to the vapor lines underground. If there are two tanks with the same product that have a liquid manifold but not a vapor manifold, vapors will flow out the tank that is not manifolded to the underground vapor return line due to hydraulic pressure. However, the flow will cease and the system pressure will level off before reaching zero. That shows that tank has a liquid manifold but not a vapor manifold. 3 BIASES AND INTERFERENCES This is a pass or fail test. 4 PREREQUISITES TO TESTING The following requirements shall be met before a valid test may be performed: 4.1 Successful Static Pressure Test - The entire vapor recovery system shall pass the appropriate static pressure test before this tie-tank test can be conducted. 4.2 Remove Vent Manifold If Required - If the storage tanks have a vapor. manifold at the top of the storage tank atmospheric vents but are required to have an underground vapor manifold as well, remove the vent manifold and California Air Resources Board March 17, 1999 TP-201.3C, Page 2 5.3 Test Option 1- Flow Regulator and Test Panel A flow regulator that is capable of delivering nitrogen at very low pressure and at a measure flow rate of 100 standard cubic feet per hour (SCFH) shall be used. For vacuum assist systems, a test panel shall be used with attachments to connect the nitrogen bottle; a flow gauge to adjust nitrogen flow; control valves, a pressure gauge capable of accurately measuring pressures from 0.01 inch wcg; and nitrogen line, with threaded connections, from the test panel to a piping tee on the dispenser vapor return line. The system flow pressure shall be sensed through a port, perpendicular to the direction of flow, located as close as possible to the vapor piping in the dispenser. An additional simultaneous-reading pressure gauge with a 0 to 10 inch w.c.g. range is desirable. For balance systems, a test panel as shown in Figure 1 shall be used. The panel shall consist of a section of vehicle fill pipe, attached pressure gauges, a drain to drain off gasoline liquid that spills into the fillpipe from the nozzle fill spout, a plug in the back through which nitrogen enters the fill neck, a flow gauge to adjust nitrogen flow, control valves and attachments to connect the nitrogen bottle. The pressure drop through the Phase II system is determined using a gauge capable of accurately measuring pressures from 0 to 1 wcg and readable in increments of 0.01 inch wcg. Pressure is to be sensed through a port, perpendicular to the direction of flow, located as close as possible to the vapor piping. An additional simultaneous-reading pressure gauge with a 0 to 10 inch wcg range is desirable. 5.4 Test Option 2 - Pressure Measurement An accurate device for measuring pressure, such as a water manometer, pressure transducer or a Magnehelic gauge (or equivalent), shall be used. This device shall be accurate to one-tenth (0.1) of an inch of water column pressure at full scale. 6 TEST PROCEDURES 6.1 Test option 1 - Test In Conjunction With Pressure Vs. Flow Test (TP-201.4) 6.1.1 After the first TP-201.4, remove the cap on the Phase I vapor return drybreak while nitrogen is flowing into the Phase II vapor return lines. The flow rate shall be at 100 standard cubic feet per hour (SCFH). TP-201.4 for newer bootless nozzle systems has a flow rate of 60 SCFH specified in the applicable ARB Executive Orders. That's too low for the tie-tank test. California Air Resources Board March 17, 1999 TP-201.3C, Page 4 6.3.2 Replace any vent manifold that was rernMed for the tie tank test using a good sealant on the pipe threads. If the system previously passed the pressure decay test with the same manifold, it is still necessary to repeat the static pressure test even if the manifold is carefully replaced and ample sealant is used. The static pressure decay test, TP-201.3, shall be conducted with the P/V valve in place after the tie-tank test is conducted. 7 REFERENCES Draft Test Procedure TP-96-3: "Tie-Tank Test Procedure for Determining Vapor Piping Connections to Underground Gasoline Storage Tanks", San Diego Air Pollution Control District California Air Resources Board March 17, 1999 TP-201.3C, Page 6 California Environmental Protection Agency Air Resources Board Vapor Recovery Test Procedure TP-201.1 B Static Torque of Rotatable Phase I Adaptors Definitions common to all certification and test procedures are in: D-200 Definitions for Vapor Recovery Procedures For the purpose of this procedure, the term "CARB" refers to the California Air Resources Board, and the term "Executive Officer" refers to the CARB Executive Officer, or his or her authorized representative or designate. 1. PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY The purpose of this procedure is to quantify the amount of static torque required to start the movement of a rotatable Phase I adaptor and to ensure 360-degree rotation. This procedure determines compliance with the performance specifications set forth in Section 3 of CP-201 Vapor Recovery Certification Procedure. 2. PRINCIPLE AND SUMMARY OF TEST PROCEDURE A compatible dust cap is installed on a rotatable Phase I adaptor. A Torque Test Tool is installed on the dust cap. A socket wrench is installed on the Torque Test Tool and 360- degree rotation is verified. Following the rotation test, a torque wrench is installed on the Torque Test Tool and three static torque measurements are taken. If the resulting, average static torque is less than, or equal to, the maximum allowable value specified in Certification Procedure 201 (CP-201), the adaptor is verified to be in compliance. 3. BIASES AND INTERFERENCES 3.1 Missing or defective gaskets in the dust cap may bias the results towards compliance as a dust cap may slip on the rotatable adaptor prior to the adaptor rotating. This bias is eliminated by ensuring that the dust cap seal is securely in place and does not show signs of excessive wear or damage. 3.2 Gasoline or other lubricants on the sealing surface of the rotatable adaptor or the dust cap seal can cause the dust cap to slip and may bias the results towards compliance.

The valve/vent pipe connection, however, shall remain unobstructed during this test. 1.3 At facilities not required to be equipped with a P/V valve(s), the vent pipe(s) shall be capped. For those installations, the test may be conducted at the vent pipe(s). 2 PRINCIPLE AND SUMMARY OF TEST PROCEDURE 2.1 The entire vapor recovery system is pressurized with nitrogen to two (2.0) inches H2O. The system pressure is then allowed to decay and the pressure after five (5) minutes is compared with an allowable value. The minimum allowable five- minute final pressure is based on the system ullage and pressure decay equations. For the purpose of compliance determination, this test shall be conducted after all back-filling, paving, and installation of all Phase I and Phase I I components, including P/V valves, has been completed. California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012 TP-201.3, Page 1 4.3.2 The storage tank side of the vacuum producing device shall be tested in accordance with the procedures outlined in Section 7 of this method. Compliance shall be determined by comparing the final five-minute pressure with the allowable minimum five-minute final pressure from the first column (1-6 affected nozzles) in Table IB or use the corresponding equation in Section 9.2. 4.3.3 The upstream vapor passage (nozzle to vacuum producing device) shall also be tested. Methodology for this test shall be submitted to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for approval prior to submission of test results or shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable CARB Executive Order. 4.4 The results of this static pressure integrity test shall not be used to verify compliance if an Air to Liquid Volumetric Ratio Test (TP-201.5 or equivalent) was conducted within 24 hours prior to this test. 4.5 Thermal Bias for Electronic Manometers Electronic manometers shall have a warm-up period of at least 15 minutes followed by a five minute drift check. If the drift exceeds 0.01 inches water column, the instrument should not be used. 5 APPARATUS 5.1 Nitrogen Use commercial grade nitrogen in a high pressure cylinder, equipped with a two- stage pressure regulator and a one psig pressure relief valve. 5.2 Pressure Measuring Device Use 0-2.0, 0-1.0, and 0-0.50 inches H2O pressure gauges connected in parallel, a 0-2 inches H2O manometer, or an electronic pressure measuring device to monitor the pressure decay in the vapor recovery system. The pressure measuring device shall, at a minimum, be readable to the nearest 0.05 inches H20- 5.3 "T" Connector Assembly See Figure 1 for example. 5.4 Vapor Coupler Integrity Assembly Assemble OPW 633-A, 633-B, and 634-A adapters, or equivalent, as shown in Figure 2. If the test is to be conducted at the storage tank Phase I vapor California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012 TP-201.3, Page 3 invalidate the test results: 6.2.1 There shall be no Phase I bulk product deliveries into or out of the storage tank(s) within the three (3) hours prior to the test or during performance of this test procedure. 6.2.2 There shall be no product dispensing within thiftY (30) minutes prior to the test or during performance of this test procedure. 6.2.3 Upon commencement of the thirty minute "no dispensing" portion of this procedure, the headspace pressure in the tank shall be measured. If the pressure exceeds 0.50 inches H2O, the pressure shall be carefully relieved in accordance with all applicable safety requirements. After the thirty minute "no dispensing" portion of this procedure, and prior to introduction of nitrogen, the headspace pressure shall again be lowered, if necessary, to less than 0.50 inches H2O. 6.2.4 There shall be no Air to Liquid Volumetric Ratio Test (TP-201.5 or equivalent) conducted within the twenty-four (24) hour period immediately prior to this test. 6.2.5 The test shall be conducted with the station in normal operating mode. This includes all nozzles properly hung up in the dispenser boots and all dispenser cabinet covers in place. The exception to normal operating mode is that dispensing is disallowed as specified. 6.3 Measure the gallons of gasoline present in each underground storage tank and determine the actual capacity of each storage tank-:rom facility records. Calculate the ullage space for each tank by subtracting the gasoline gallonage present from the actual tank capacity. The minimurn ullage during the test, for all manifolded tanks, shall be 1,000 gallons or 25 percent of the tank capacity, whichever is less. The total ullage, for all manifolded tanks, shall not exceed 25,000 gallons. 6.4 For two-point Phase I systems, this test shall be conducted with the dust cap removed from both the product and the vapor coupler. This is necessary to determine the vapor tightness of the Phase I vapor poppet. See Section 6.7 if this test is to be conducted at the Phase I vapor coupler. 6.4.1 For coaxial Phase I systems, this test shall be conducted with the dust cap removed from the Phase I coupler. This is necessary to insure the vapor tightness of the Phase I vapor poppet. 6.4.2 Verify that the liquid level in the storage tank is at least four (4) inches above the highest opening at the bottom of the submerged drop tube. California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012 TP-201.3, Page 5 6.9 Use the flowmeter to determine the nitrogen regulator delivery pressures which correspond to nitrogen flowrates of 1.0 and 5.0 CFM. These pressures define the allowable range of delivery pressures acceptable for this test procedure. Also record the regulator delivery pressure setting, and the corresponding nitrogen flowrate that will be used during the test. As an alternative, the flowmeter may be connected, in-line between the nitrogen supply regulator and Vapor Coupler Test Assembly, during the test. 6.10 Use Equation 9.3 to calculate the approximate time required to pressurize the system ullage to the initial starting pressure of two (2.0) inches H2O. This will allow the tester to minimize the quantity of nitrogen introduced into those systems which cannot comply with the static leak standards. . 6.11 Attach the Vapor Coupler Test assembly to the Phase I poppet or the "T" connector assembly to the Phase II vapor riser. Read the initial pressure of the storage tank and underground piping. If the initial pressure is greater than 0.5 inches H2O, carefully bleed off the pressure, in accordance with all applicable safety procedures, in the storage tank and underground piping to less than 0.5 inches H2O column. 6.12 Any electronic manometers shall be subject to warm-up and drift check before use; see Section 4.5. 7 TESTING 7.1 Open the nitrogen gas supply valve and set the regulator delivery pressure within the allowable range determined in Section 6.9, and start the stopwatch. Pressurize the vapor system (or subsystem for individual vapor return line systems) to at least 2.2 inches H20initial pressure. It is critical to maintain the nitrogen flow until the pressure stabilizes, indicating temperature and vapor pressure stabilization in the tanks. Check the test equipment using leak detecting solution or a combustible gas detector to verify that all test equipment is leak tight. Note: if a combustible gas detector is used to search for leaks, components which were certified with an allowable leak rate, such as 0.38 CFH at a pressure of two (2) inches, cannot be determined to be faulty solely on the basis of the concentration registered on the instrument. 7.1.1 If the time required to achieve the initial pressure of two (2.0) inches H2O exceeds twice the time derived from Equation 9.3, stop the test and use liquid leak detector, or a combustible gas detector, to find leak(s) in the system. Failure to achieve the initial starting pressure within twice the time derived from Equation 9.3 demonstrates the inability of the system to meet the performance criteria. Repair or replace the faulty component(s) and restart the test pursuant to Section 7.1. California Air Resources Board July 26, 2012 TP-201.3, Page 7 8 POST-TEST PROCEDURES 8.1 Use the applicable of Table 1A or 1 B, or the applicable of Equations 9.1 or 9.2, to determine the compliance status of the facility by comparing the final five- minute pressure with the minimum allowable final pressure. 8.1.1 For balance Phase II systems use Table 1A or the applicable of Equation 9.1 to determine compliance. 8.1.2 For vacuum-assist Phase II systems use Table 1 B or the applicable of Equation 9.2 to determine compliance. 9 CALCULATIONS 9.1 For Phase II Balance Systems, the minimum allowable five-minute final pressure, with an initial pressure of two (2.0) inches H2O, shall be calculated as follows: (-7611.491)V 2 Pf= eI\ if N=1-6 [Equation 9-1] (-792.1%1 Pf =2e V J ifN=7-12 (-824.123) Pf=2e V ifN=13-18 (-111.974) Pf=2e V if N=19-24 pf=2e(88V� 7) if N>24 where: N = The number of affected nozzles.

Leak Rate of Drop Tube Overfill Prevention Devices and Spill Container Drain Valves Definitions common to all certification and test procedures are in: D-200 Definitions for Vapor Recovery Procedures For the purpose of this procedure, the term "CARB" refers to the State of California Air Resources Board, and the term "Executive Officer" refers to the CARB Executive Officer, or his or her authorized representative or designate. 1. PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY The purpose of this procedure is to quantify the leak rate of overfill prevention devices located in the Phase I product drop tube on two-point Phase I systems. When applicable, this procedure is also used to quantify the leak rate of a spill container drain valve which passes liquid directly into the Phase I drop tube. This procedure is applicable only to those Gasoline Dispensing Facilities (GDF) equipped with an overfill prevention device located in the Phase I product drop tube. It is used to determine the compliance of components with the performance specification for the maximum allowable leak rate as defined in CP-201 Vapor Recovery Certification Procedure for Vapor Recovery Systems at Gasoline Dispensing Facilities. 2. PRINCIPLE AND SUMMARY OF TEST PROCEDURE A compatible cap for a Phase I product adaptor is modified to allow the introduction of nitrogen into the Phase I drop tube. A pressure gauge is connected to the modified cap and nitrogen is flowed into the drop tube. If the resulting nitrogen flow rate necessary to maintain a steady-state pressure is less than or equal to the specifications described in CP-201, the overfill_prevention device is verified to be in compliance. In the case where a spill container drain valve that passes liquid directly into the Phase I drop tube is installed, the components are isolated from each other with use of an inflatable bladder in order to determine the leak rate of each component. If the leak rate of the drain valve cannot be quantified, the overfill prevention device cannot be tested. 3. BIASES AND INTERFERENCES 3.1 Missing or defective gaskets on the Phase I product adaptor, or a loose adaptor, may bias the results towards noncompliance. Prior to a final determination of noncompliance of the component(s), use leak detection solution on all visible components to verify the absence of leaks. California Air Resources Board October 8, 2003 TP-201.1D, Page 1 5.4 Stopwatch. Use a stopwatch accurate to within 0.10 seconds to time the pressurization of the drop tube and pressure stabilization period. 5.5 Leak Detection Solution. Any commercial liquid solutio-i designed to detect vapor leaks may be used to verify the pressure integrity of the Phase I product adaptor during this test. 5.6 Vapor Adaptor Pressure Relief Assembly. Use a modified dust cap or a compatible vapor recovery elbow to open the Phase I vapor adaptor during the test. An example of a Vapor Adaptor Pressure Relief Assembly is shown in Figure 1. Screwdrivers or other devices that may damage the vapor adaptor or gasket seal shall not be used to open the Phase I vapor adaptor. 5.7 Inflatable Bladder. Use an inflatable bladder and extension hose, as shown in Figure 2, to isolate the drain valve from the overfill prevention device when applicable. Unless otherwise specified in the certification Executive Order for the system, a "34 model" inflatable plumber's bladder may be used. 5.8 Product Adaptor Test Cap. Use a modified product dust cap compatible with the Phase I product adaptor. The cap shall be equipped with connections for a pressure gauge and flow meter. An example of a Product Adaptor Test Cap is shown in Figure 3. 5.9 Tank Gauging Stick. Use a tank gauging stick, if required, of sufficient length to verify that the UST liquid level is at least four (4) inches ahove the highest opening at the bottom of the submerged drop tube. The tank gauging stick shall be equipped with a non-sparking "L" bracket at the end. Figure 1 Vapor Adaptor Pressure Relief Assembly .

PRE-TEST PROCEDURES 6.1 The flow meter(s) and pressure gauge shall be calibrated within the 180 days prior to conducting the test. The flow meter(s) shall be calibrated for use with nitrogen. Calibrations shall be conducted in accordance with EPA or CARB protocols. CARB calibration methodology for flow meters and pressure gauges are contained in Appendix. D of Air Monitoring Quality Assurance, Volume VI, Standard Operating Procedures for Stationary Source Emission Monitoring and Testing, January 1979. 6.2 Remove the lids of the Phase I spill containers and product adaptor dust caps. Visually determine that the drop tube is equipped with an overfill prevention device. 6.3 Inspect the Phase I product adaptor to ensure that the gasket is installed and that the adaptor is securely attached to the Phase I product riser. 6.4 Verify that the liquid level in the storage tank is at least four(4) inches above the highest opening at the bottom of the submerged drop tube using the tank gauging stick. 6.5 Inspect the drain valve configuration. Verify that the drain valve passes liquid directly into the drop tube, as shown in Figure 2, rather than into the storage tank ullage space. 6.6 Remove the Phase I vapor adaptor dust cap for the tank to be tested. Connect the Vapor Adaptor Pressure Relief Assembly, or equivalent, to the Phase I vapor adaptor. Allow the UST ullage space to reach zero gauge pressure. 7. TEST PROCEDURE 7.1 If a drain valve is not present, or does not pass liquid.directly into the drop tube, proceed directly to Section 7.8. 7.2 Carefully install the inflatable bladder into the drop tube as shown in Figure 2 and inflate. 7.3 Connect the Product Adaptor Test Cap to the Phase I product adaptor and connect the flow meter and pressure gauge to the test cap as shown in Figure 4. 7.4 Open the nitrogen supply and adjust the flow to a rate no greater than the maximum allowable leak rate specified for the drain valve only in CP-201 and start the stopwatch for a maximum of 5 minutes. 7.5 Wait until the pressure gauge indicates a pressure equal to the performance specification pressure for the drain valve as defined in CP-201. 7.5.1 If the pressure gauge does not indicate the specified pressure within 5 minutes, the drain valve does not comply with the maximum allowable leak rate specification. 7.5.2 If the pressure gauge indicates the specified pressure within 5 minutes immediately reduce the nitrogen flow in order to stabilize at the specified pressure (±0.5 inches H2O) for 30 seconds.

PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY The purpose of this procedure is to quantify the lea,; rate of drop tube/drain valve assembly when the spill container drain valve is config.fired to pass liquid into the drop tube as shown in Figure 1. It is used to certify and to determine the compliance of components with the performance specification for the -naximum allowable leak rate as defined in CP-201 Vapor Recovery Certification Procedure for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities. 2. PRINCIPLE AND SUMMARY OF TEST PROCEDURE A compatible dust cap for a Phase I product adaptor is rnodified to allow the introduction of nitrogen into the Phase I drop tube. A pressure gauge is connected to the modified cap and nitrogen is flowed into the drop tube. If the resultirna nitrogen flow rate necessary to maintain a steady-state pressure is less than or equal to the specifications described in CP-201, the drop tube/drain valve assembly is verified to be in compliance. An inflatable bladder is installed in the Phase I drop tube below the spill container drain valve path to eliminate potential biases resulting from the level of fuel in the storage tank. 3. BIASES AND INTERFERENCES 3.1 Missing or defective gaskets on the Phase I product adaptor or a loose adaptor may bias the results towards noncompliance. Prior to a final determination of noncompliance of the component(s), use leak detection solution on all visible components to verify the absence of leaks. 3.2 Leaks in the test equipment will bias the results toward noncompliance. Prior to conducting the test, this bias is eliminated by conducting a leak check of the test equipment. Leak detection solution may also be used during the test to verify the absence of leaks in the test equipment. California Air Resources Board October 8, 2003 TP-201.1C, Page 1 5. EQUIPMENT 5.1 Pressure Gauge. Use a pressure gauge with minimum specifications listed in Section 4 to monitor the pressure in the drop tube. 5.2 Flow Meter. Use a flow meter with minimum specifications listed in Section 4 to set the required nitrogen flow rate(s). 5.3 Nitrogen. Use commercial grade gaseous nitrogen in a high-pressure cylinder, equipped with a pressure regulator and a one psig pressure relief valve. 5.4 Stopwatch. Use a stopwatch accurate to within 0.10 seconds to time the pressurization of the drop tube and pressure stabilization period . 5.5 Leak Detection Solution. Any non-flammable commercial liquid solution designed to detect vapor leaks may be used. 5.6 Inflatable bladder. Use an inflatable bladder and extension hose, as shown in Figure 1, to isolate the drain valve. Unless otherwise specified in the certification Executive Order for the system, a "34 model" inflatable plumber's bladder may be used. 5.7 Product Adaptor Test Cap. Use a modified product dust cap compatible with the Phase I product adaptor. The cap shall be equipped with connections for a pressure gauge and flow meter. An optional metering valve may be installed to relieve excess pressure. An example of a Product Adaptor Test Cap is shown in Figure 3.

TEST PROCEDURE 7.1 Carefully install the inflatable bladder into the drop tube as shown in Figure 1 and inflate. 7.2 Connect the Product Adaptor Test Cap to the Phase I product adaptor and connect the flow meter and pressure gauge to the test cap as shown in Figure 2. 7.3 Open the nitrogen supply and adjust the nitrogen flow to a rate no greater than the maximum allowable leak rate specified for the drain valve in CP-201 and start the stopwatch for a maximum of 5 minutes. 7.4 Wait until the pressure gauge indicates a pressure equal to the performance specification pressure for the drain valve as defined in CP-201. 7.4.1 If the pressure gauge does not indicate the specified pressure within 5 minutes, the drain valve does not comply Nvith the maximum allowable leak rate specification. 7.4.2 If the pressure gauge indicates the specified pressure within 5 minutes immediately reduce the nitrogen flow in order to stabilize at the specified pressure (±0.05 inches H2O) for 30 seconds. 7.5 Record the flow rate required to stabilize at the pressure specified in CP-201. 7.5.1 If the final flow rate is below the detectable (limit of the flow meter, record the lowest measurable flow rate and final pressure on the data sheet. California Air Resources Board October 8, 2003 TP-201.1C, Page 5 10. REPORTING RESULTS Report the results of the quantification of the leak rate through the drop tube/drain valve assembly as indicated on Form 1. Districts may require the use of alternate forms, provided they include the same minimum parameters as identified on Form 1. 11. ALTERNATE PROCEDURES This procedure shall be conducted as specified. Modifications to this test procedure shall not be used to determine compliance unless prior written approval has been obtained from the Executive Officer, pursuant to Section 14 of CP-201 (Certification Procedure for Vapor Recovery Systems at Gasoline Dispensing Facilities).
