Resident Project Representation: The resident observation of the contractor's workmanship is the most important part of this project. The best -written, most thorough specifications do not assure the project is completed correctly. TIC's technicians are experienced in tank repair, painting, and erection. They are not only familiar with proper coating application techniques, but also with the underlying reasons for tank painting standards. In addition, our entire staff of civil, structural, chemical, and mechanical engineers and support personnel, including our MACE Certified Field Services Manager, Field Supervisors, and Contract Administrator are available for supplemental technical support for any special problems that might occur. Daily Progress Reports: TIC's technician will furnish Mount Prospect and the contractor with a written report for each day's evaluation. The reports will address, at a minimum, the following items: • Temperature of steel • Weather conditions o Temperature o Wind velocity and direction o Relative humidity o Dew point • Location and quality of work performed and compliance with the project documents • Paint batch numbers • Surface profile • Wet and dry film thickness readings • Calibration record of dry mil thickness gauge • Measure of the paint cure • Number of men and equipment on the job • Recommendations made • Estimated completion date • Other pertinent data as required or requested The following equipment (at a minimum) will be utilized by TIC to monitor the work: Mr. Matt Overeem Page 2 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois — Construction Phase Services Station 11 Tank February 2, 2017 • SSPC-Vis 1 Visual blasting standards • NACE Visual Standard TM -01-70 (available) • AWWA Standards D100-11 and D102-11 • Testex Press -O -Film Profile Measurement System • Surface Contamination Detection Device [soluble salts] (if required) • Wet Film Thickness Gauge (observe applicator's use) • Dry Film Thickness Gauge • Certified Thickness Calibration Standards • Steel Temperature Gauges • Sling Psychrometer and Psychometric Tables • Wet Sponge Holiday Detector [low voltage] (if required by TIC personnel) • Adhesive Force Measurement Device (if required) • Tooke Gage (if required) Atmospheric Conditions and Contaminants: Coatings are very sensitive to atmospheric conditions. Humidity, dew point, air, and steel temperatures must all be within acceptable ranges during application and curing for coating systems to achieve maximum life. Evidence of the application of the coating under adverse atmospheric conditions may be a premature failure two or three years later. In some environments, there is also the problem of contaminants being deposited on the steel and between coats of paint. Even small traces of contaminants beneath a coating system have been found to cause premature coating failure. Coating System Integrity: Numerous other situations may occur that can significantly reduce the life of the coating system. Causes for premature coating failure such as contaminants in the abrasive or on the steel, rust film forming on steel before priming, and improper surface profile cannot be found by an inexperienced technician. All of these situations require an experienced technician to identify not only the problems, but to make constructive suggestions to correct them. Our technicians will also observe a low -voltage holiday detection test on interior surfaces, including the roof. Environmental Impact: TIC is very concerned about the environmental impact of the tank rehabilitation project we are involved in, and is dedicated to complying with environmental regulations. If required, we will have TCLP tests be performed on the contractor on the blasting debris to determine if it is hazardous and requires special handling and disposal. Soil samples will be taken from carefully plotted locations on and around the tank site prior to the start of the cleaning and painting project. This testing will provide background samples that can be tested and compared with samples taken from the same locations at the project's conclusion. This before and after sampling and testing will help to gauge the impact the project had on the environment and neighboring property, and will help protect the Village from claims for pollution which existed before the project started. If requested, TIC will have a qualified laboratory perform the laboratory analysis. The actual cost of laboratory analysis will be determined by the number of samples that will be required. Contract Administration: Once a tank rehabilitation project begins, TIC will be available to consult with and advise the Village concerning any portion of the tank rehabilitation and repainting project. Included with this proposal as Exhibit A is a listing of Contract Administration services typically performed by TIC. Some of the contract administration could include: • Consultation on adequacy and compliance with the project specifications • Specification interpretation • Attend the pre -construction and subsequent meetings—supplying typed meeting notes • Review all contractors' submittals and shop drawings • Review construction schedule Mr. Matt Overeem Page 3 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois — Construction Phase Services Station 11 Tank February 2, 2017 • Review and approval of materials • Prepare and assist in the negotiations of change orders and supplemental agreements • Review and approval of payment requests • Dispute settlement • Public relations The fees for the construction phase services will be billed on a time and expenses basis from the rate structure in effect at the time the services are performed. The current rate structure is attached for your review. The contractors' construction methodology and work force allotment will be the overall determining factor for inspection hours and costs for this project. Based on our experience with similar projects we estimate the following: Resident Project Representation*: 6 - 7 weeks @ approximately $5,000/week $30,000 - $35,000 Contract Administration: $4,000 Subcontract Laboratory Analysis: $2,000 *A minimal amount of time may be charged for the field technician's preparation of documentation in addition to on- site time. To proceed with this project, please sign the two copies of the enclosed Standard Agreement and forward one original to us. After receipt of this agreement, TIC will contact you to schedule the field work portion of this project. We look forward to working with you on this project. If you have any questions or comments, please contact me.

SUBJECT: 7740 West New York Street The subject of this report is the field evaluation of the 1,000,000 gallon steel Indianapolis, Indiana 46214 ground storage tank in Mow -it Prospect, Illinois. The tank was owned by the 317 / 271-31.00 - Phone Village of Mount Prospect and was known as the "Station I I Tank." The field 317 / 271-3300 - FAX evaluation was performed on July 8, 2015 by James A. Peyer, Kyle M. Spaulding, and Anthony R. Turpin of Tank Industry Consultants. The Owner's representative on the site at the time of the field evaluation was Dan Murphy. The sphericon, knuckle roof tank was of welded steel construction. According infon-nation on the tank nameplate, the tank was built in 1.968 by Chicago Plainfield, Illinois Bridge and Iron Company under contract number 68-3225. The tank Bridge 915 / 556-8335 nameplate also stated that the tank diameter was 98 ft, and the high water level Pittsbut-gh, Pennsylvania was 18 ft2In. 412 / 262-1586 El Paso, Texas OBJECTIVE: 915 / 790-0790 The purpose of this washout and evaluation was to determine the condition of Houston, Texas 281 367-3511 the tank interior, exterior, exposed. foundation, and accessories. The purpose of this report is to present the findings of the evaluation and to make recommendations for recoating, repairing, corrosion protection, and maintenance. Budget estimates for the work, anticipated life of the coating and the structure, and the replacement cost of the tank are also included. AUTHORIZATION: This washout, evaluation, disinfection, and report were authorized in P.O. No. 2015-00000428 dated April 30, 2015. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The coating on the interior and exterior of this tank were in good overall condition and should not require repainting within the next 5 to 7 years. The tank should be re-evaluated in 3 to 5 years as recommended by AWWA. Structural calculations should be performed to determine if the purlins in the interior roof support structure are required, and if so, how many are Deeded. The deteriorated purlins should be removed and replaced. Until such time as the purlins can be removed or replaced, personnel should not access the tank interior due to the potential for the purlins to fall. An Employee -Owned Company 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 2 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 ANSUOSHA and Safety -Related Deficiencies: There were OSHA and safety-related deficiencies on this tank. These deficiencies included: ♦ the purlins on the interior roof support structure were deteriorated and in danger of falling, and ♦ the roof safety railings were not equipped with toe bars (29 CFR 1910.23(e)(4)). If the Owner wishes to fully comply with OSHA and safety-related standards, it is recommended that these deficiencies be rectified. The deficiencies listed above are not intended to be a complete list of deficiencies on this tank. The Owner should refer to the complete report text and accompanying photographs for a complete account of all observed deficiencies. This evaluation and the reporting of the condition of this tank do not warrant the original structural condition of the tank or any of the original design for seismic loadings. Likewise, recommendations for this tank do not include modifications which may be required for compliance with present structural codes. PHOTOGRAPHS: Color photographs were taken of the visible portions of the foundation, the tank interior and exterior and are included as a part of this report. The significant photographs are keyed to the observations. NOMENCLATURE: The terms used in describing the various components of water tanks are unique to the industry. In fact, the terms vary from firm to firm and from person to person. In an attempt to define the terms used in this report, a sketch of the general type of tank covered is included at the end of the narrative portion of this report. Each horizontal row of steel plates on the tank is referred to as a "shell ring" or "ring." To aid in referencing the shell rings, the bottom ring is referred to as shell ring 1 and the top ring is shell ring 2. Warning: Some appurtenances on this tank may be referred to as erection or rigging attachments, lugs, or brackets. This does not mean that they are safe for rigging. Each attachment for each tank should be evaluated on an individual basis by a structural engineer or an experienced rigger before being used. These devices may have been intended for only the original erectors and painters to use with specialized equipment. ADHESION TESTS: All adhesion tests performed during this evaluation were done in general accordance with ASTM D3359. The results are reported herein using the ASTM scale. The ASTM scale is a relative scale to rate adhesion from 0 to 5 with 5 being the best. A table of adhesion test results classification is included with this report following the sketch of the tank. 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, ",Station 11 Tank" Page 3 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 HEAVY METALS TESTS: Samples of the exterior and interior coating systems were sent to a laboratory for inductively coupled plasma -atomic emission spectrometry analyses. The test results were as follows: Cadmium mg/kg percent Chromium mg/kg percent Lead mg/kg percent Exterior <25 <0.0025% <250 <0.025% 806 0.0806% Interior <25 <0.0025% <250 <0.025% <250 <0.025% Tank Industry Consultants performs this test only to determine if there is lead, cadmium, or chromium present in the coating samples. To limit damage to the existing coating, only small areas were tested. The small number of samples taken and the difficulty of retrieving all primer from the steel profile may cause the tests performed to not accurately represent the total coating system. Variations in thickness, types of coatings applied, and the interim cleaning and painting operations will also affect the actual readings. The reliability of the results is also dependent on the amount of primer included in the sample. Additional testing to determine the amount of leachable contaminants present in the spent cleaning debris will need to be performed following cleaning operations at the time of repainting. Results from the laboratory analysis are included following the adhesion tables.

Site Location: The tank was located on the grounds of the Mount Prospect Golf Course at 600 South See Gwun Avenue in Mount Prospect, Illinois. There no residences within the vicinity of the tank. Access to the site was via an 8 ft wide asphalt drive. (See photos 1-7) 2. Site Conditions: The tank site was covered with grass and was graded to provide adequate drainage away from the foundation. On the east side of the tank, the perimeter was asphalt, and on the west side of the tank the perimeter of the tank was grass. The site was not fenced. There was a pump house on the site, and several poles were adjacent to the site. A cathodic protection control cabinet for the tank was located in the pump house, and it housed the system's rectifier. Piping extended from tank into pump house. The pipe was supported by concrete blocks. Trailers, landscaping equipment, stone/rock barriers, brush piles, and gravel mounds were located within 3 ft of the tank on the north and east sides. A cellular antenna tower was located north of the tank on the site on the opposite site of a building. (See photos 1-8, 13, 22-23, 25-26, 29) 3. Foundation: The tank foundation appeared to be a concrete ringwall with a beveled edge. Except for minor cracking and some spalled areas, the exposed surface of the foundation appeared to be in nearly its original structural condition at the time of this field evaluation. The foundation did not consistently exhibit the AWWA recommended 6 in. to 12 in. projection above grade. White coating was visible on the exposed concrete surfaces at the time of this field evaluation. The ground was eroded on the west side of the tank directly at the foundation. (See photos 1, 8, 13-21, 24-26) 4. Fiberboard and Sealant: There was a sealant located around the bottom plate -to - foundation interface. The sealant had randomly disbonded from both the foundation and the baseplate. 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, ",Station 11 Tank" Page S Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 Fiberboard was observed between the bottom plate and the concrete foundation. Vegetation had grown at voids in the fiberboard and sealant. (See photos 16-20) 5. Valve Vault: There was a valve vault located approximately 1 ft south of the tank. The valve vault was part of the pump house basement. The exterior access into the valve vault was locked prior to or after this field evaluation. There was a 16 in. diameter outlet pipe and a 10 in. diameter inlet pipe were located in the vault. The coating on the riser pipes at the penetration to the tank floor had peeled, and corrosion was noted. (See photos 8-11) B.

Exterior Coating Condition: The beige coating on the exterior of the tank appeared to be in good condition and was providing adequate protection from corrosion to most of the steel. The exterior coating exhibited very good adhesion to the underlying steel. The coating appeared to be a polyurethane coating system. The Owner reported that the tank had been repainted in 2011. 2. Bottom Plate: The tank bottom plate extension appeared to be in nearly its original condition at the time of the field evaluation. Light debris and minor coating failures were observed on the bottom plate projection. Previous metal loss was observed on the bottom plate edge. The bottom plate overhung the beveled edge of the foundation in areas. Grass clippings were observed on the bottom plate projection. (See photos 13-21, 23-25, 29) 3. Shell Condition: The contour of the tank shell was good with significant discontinuities observed at the time of this field evaluation. The coating appeared to be in good overall condition as no significant coating failure and corrosion were observed. The coating exhibited very good adhesion to the steel. Small stone nicks and grass clippings were observed on the shell. Two tank nameplates were located on the southeast side of shell ring Al above the shell manhole. There was a 2 in. diameter cathodic protection coupling on shell ring 41. Two boxes and associated conduit and brackets were attached to the shell. (See photos 1-3, 8, 13-21, 23-27, 29-38) 4. Shell Manholes: The tank was equipped with two flanged and bolted circular manholes. One of the manholes was located on the southeast side of the tank, and the other manhole was located on the northwest side of the tank. The shell plate around each of the manholes was equipped with a reinforcing plate. There were open weep holes in the reinforcing plates. The manhole covers were equipped with davit arms. The bolts on the manhole covers appeared to be stainless steel. (See photos 1,30-33) 5. Overflow Pipe: The overflow pipe exited through the top shell ring and extended down the shell and discharged above a drainage catch basin. The discharge end was equipped with an elastomeric check valve. The pipe was equipped with welded steel brackets that appeared to be in their original structural condition at the time of this field evaluation. No significant coating failure was observed on the overflow pipe. The concrete block overflow catch basin was spalled and in poor condition.

The bottom plate overhung the beveled edge of the foundation in areas. Grass clippings were observed on the bottom plate projection. (See photos 13-21, 23-25, 29) 3. Shell Condition: The contour of the tank shell was good with significant discontinuities observed at the time of this field evaluation. The coating appeared to be in good overall condition as no significant coating failure and corrosion were observed. The coating exhibited very good adhesion to the steel. Small stone nicks and grass clippings were observed on the shell. Two tank nameplates were located on the southeast side of shell ring Al above the shell manhole. There was a 2 in. diameter cathodic protection coupling on shell ring 41. Two boxes and associated conduit and brackets were attached to the shell. (See photos 1-3, 8, 13-21, 23-27, 29-38) 4. Shell Manholes: The tank was equipped with two flanged and bolted circular manholes. One of the manholes was located on the southeast side of the tank, and the other manhole was located on the northwest side of the tank. The shell plate around each of the manholes was equipped with a reinforcing plate. There were open weep holes in the reinforcing plates. The manhole covers were equipped with davit arms. The bolts on the manhole covers appeared to be stainless steel. (See photos 1,30-33) 5. Overflow Pipe: The overflow pipe exited through the top shell ring and extended down the shell and discharged above a drainage catch basin. The discharge end was equipped with an elastomeric check valve. The pipe was equipped with welded steel brackets that appeared to be in their original structural condition at the time of this field evaluation. No significant coating failure was observed on the overflow pipe. The concrete block overflow catch basin was spalled and in poor condition. (See photos 25-28) 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 9 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 6. Exterior Ladder: The exterior ladder was welded to brackets on the shell. The brackets appeared to be in good overall structural condition. The ladder side rails at the shell -to -knuckle were bolted, and one of the bolts was loose. The ladder was equipped with an aluminum hinged vandal deterrent that was locked. (See photos 30, 35-38, 40-42) 7. Roof Safety Railing: There was a safety-related deficiency noted: the roof safety railings were not equipped with toe bars. The roof was equipped with a safety railing at the roof access adjacent to the roof manholes. The safety railing was constructed from welded angle and flat bar members. The safety railing opening at the roof access was equipped with a closure chain. The closing mechanism in the closure chain had deteriorated. (See photos 1, 3, 30, 40-43, 46-49) S. Roof Condition: The contour of the roof was adequate at the time of this evaluation. The coating on the roof had very good adhesion to the steel. There were no significant areas of coating failure observed at the time of this field evaluation. Three or four minor rust spots and a few small areas of peeled coating were observed. (See photos 39-56) 9. Roof Manholes: The roof was equipped with three manholes. All of the manholes were equipped with hinged and locked covers. Previous metal loss was observed on the interior of the neck of one of the manholes. The roof manhole at the roof access was welded on the exterior only, but the other two manholes appeared to be welded on the interior and exterior. An interior rafter partially obstructed one of the manhole openings. (See photos 40-42, 44-49) 10. Roof Vent: The roof was equipped with a clog -resistant vent. The vent was equipped with pallets that would facilitate ventilation during filling or draining of the tank. The proper operation or design of the pallets was not verified during this evaluation. The vent pallets and screen appeared to be in good condition at the time of this evaluation. (See photos 54, 56-59) C.

Interior Coating Condition: The white coating on the interior surfaces of the tank appeared to be in good condition and was providing adequate protection from corrosion to most of the underlying steel. Coating adhesion tests were only performed on the roof to avoid destructive testing of the coating below the water level. 2. Roof Condition: The coating on the roof plates appeared to be in good to fair overall condition. Rust staining was noted along the tops of the roof rafters, along the roof plate lap seams, along the rafter edges. The interior roof support structure consisted of radial roof rafters, a center column spokes, two sets of purlins, and a knuckle perimeter angle. The inner ends of the roof rafters rested on a center hub that was located at the top of the center column. The outer ends of the rafters were equipped with clips at the knuckle perimeter angle. The clips appeared to be approximately 4 in x 3 in., flat bar. Previous pitting was observed on the rafter clips. Some of the purlins were larger than the others, approximately 2-1/2 in. x 2-1/2 in., and some of the purlins were oriented diagonally. Some of the purlins were in poor condition and in danger of falling. The center hub was equipped with eight radial spokes and 2 ft square top plates under an approximately 3 ft diameter ring. The knuckle perimeter angle was intermittently welded to the knuckle. Thick caulking was observed on some of the rafters, and it appeared that the caulking was trapping moisture against the steel. Corrosion was observed on the tops of the roof support members, and corrosion and previous metal loss were observed on the roof surfaces. It is the opinion of Tank Industry Consultants that personnel should not access the tank until the roof purlins have been secured. (See photos 60-82, 85-90) 3. Shell Condition: The coating on the shell interior appeared to be in very good overall condition. There was no significant coating failure or corrosion observed on the interior shell surface at the time of this field evaluation. (See photos 62, 65-66, 85-86, 91-95, 97, 99, 10 1) 4. Overflow Pipe: The overflow pipe was equipped with a fiunnel-type inlet. The location of the overflow inlet was such that the top capacity level was above the bottoms of the roof rafters; however, it did not appear that the tank was operated at full capacity and the typical water level was approximately 6 in. below the bottoms of the rafters. (See photos 82-84) 5. Baffle Wall: The tank was equipped with an interior baffle wall adjacent to the shell manhole. The wall extended approximately 30 ft out from shell, and then angled and extended an additional 15 ft. The baffle wall was approximately 5 ft tall and equipped with vertical and diagonal Coating Thickness Range Typical % Failure to Primer Rust Adhesion Metal Loss Typical Deepest Roof 8 mils to 15 mils - Neg. < 1/2% 5S Neg.

Shell Condition: The coating on the shell interior appeared to be in very good overall condition. There was no significant coating failure or corrosion observed on the interior shell surface at the time of this field evaluation. (See photos 62, 65-66, 85-86, 91-95, 97, 99, 10 1) 4. Overflow Pipe: The overflow pipe was equipped with a fiunnel-type inlet.

(See photos 82-84) 5. Baffle Wall: The tank was equipped with an interior baffle wall adjacent to the shell manhole. The wall extended approximately 30 ft out from shell, and then angled and extended an additional 15 ft. The baffle wall was approximately 5 ft tall and equipped with vertical and diagonal 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 12 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 braces. There was a 20 in. wide sliding gate access adjacent to the shell wall. The coating on the baffle wall and braces was in good overall condition. (See photos 91-96) 6. Bottom Plate Condition: The coating on the tank bottom appeared to be in good overall condition. Previous pitting up to 0.08 in. deep was observed. (See photos 85-87, 89, 91-98, 100-107) 7. Interior Piping: The inlet/outlet pipe was located in the tank floor. The inlet/outlet pipe projected approximately 5-1/2 in. above the bottom plates. The inlet/outlet pipe was not equipped with a protective cover. The tank was equipped with dished drain sumps at each of the shell manholes, approximately 3 ft from the shell. The sumps were 32 in. in diameter and the center depth was approximately 8-1/2 in. The tank was equipped with a recirculating pipe. The recirculating pipe was approximately 39 ft from the tank shell, projected approximately 47 in. above the bottom plate, and was equipped with an elbow. The tank was also equipped with a pressure sensor pipe that projected approximately 5 in. above the bottom plate. The inlet/outlet pipe, the recirculating pipe, and the pressure sensor pipe were all equipped with a reinforcing pad. (See photos 94, 103-107) 8. Cathodic Protection: The tank was equipped with a cathodic protection system. The system consisted of a wire anode and floats. The cathodic protection anode system anchored from the lower portions of the shell. The wiring appeared to be intact. It appeared as though the cathodic protection system was operating properly as no significant corrosion was observed at the areas of coating failure below the high water line. The reference anode was located near the center of the tank adjacent to the center column base. The cathodic protection equipment cabinet was located in the pump house which housed an automatically controlled potential rectifier. (See photos 12, 85-86, 91- 94,97-104) RECOMMENDATIONS: A. Foundation and Site I. Site Maintenance: The site should be regraded so that the top of the foundation projects a minimum of 6 in. to a maximum of 12 in. above grade and so that proper drainage away from the foundation occurs. Site maintenance should be performed with the mower discharge directed away from the base of the tank to prevent rock chips in the coating and the accumulation of grass on the bottom plate. Vegetation on the bottom plate and on or near the shell should be removed and should not be allowed to encroach on the foundation or steel in the future. The equipment and debris around the tank should be removed to prevent it from coming in contact with the tank or foundation and causing damage. 2. Site Access and Restoration: Provisions should be included in the specifications for the restoration of any paving, curbing, sidewalks, fences, sod, or other surfaces and structures disturbed by the contractor's work. 3. Tank and Site Security: Water tanks have been defined by some courts under certain circumstances as attractive nuisances. As such, there may be a significant potential liability to the Owner for injury to persons on the tank and tank site, even if access is not authorized. Recent events have prompted the entire water industry to consider measures that inhibit intentional acts that could threaten the water supply. A review of the security requirements for the tank and site is recommended 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 13 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 to confirm that the existing measures are consistent with the Owner's security requirements for their water system. Primary tank and site security should be focused on eliminating, preventing, and detecting unauthorized access to the tank. Such security measures might include routinely and periodically verifying all manholes and the ladder vandal deterrent are locked. Other security measures might include installing no -trespass signs, cutting the vegetation away from the tank to improve visibility, or installing a fence, installing barbed wire, upgrading the existing site lighting, adding motion detectors on the site, installing surveillance cameras, installing alarms on tank manholes, and arranging more frequent site visits by law enforcement agencies. 4. Foundation: If the foundation should deteriorate prior to performing other tank rehabilitation operations, any unsound concrete should be chipped to sound material and the concrete should be brush-off blasted. Any deteriorated areas or voids found should have a bonding agent and a vinyl emollient modified concrete patching mortar applied to build up the surface to its original contour. The concrete should then be painted with a concrete sealer. 5. Sealant Maintenance: When the exterior repainting is performed, the existing sealant and any vegetation located between the bottom plate and the foundation should be removed and replaced with a flexible polyurethane sealant. 6. Valve Vault: The piping and valves located in the valve vault should be cleaned and painted in accordance with the interior coating recommendations at the time of the tank cleaning and coating. The exterior concrete surfaces should be cleaned to the equivalent of a brush-off blast cleaning and painted with a concrete sealer. The valve vault access should continue to be locked at all times in order to limit liability to the Owner and to protect water system security. Freeze protection should be provided for on all control piping and static water lines. B. Exterior Surfaces 1. Life of the Exterior Coating: The exterior coating system appeared to be providing good protection to the majority of the steel surfaces. Tank Industry Consultants believes that the exterior of the tank should not need to be painted within the next 5 to 7 years from a corrosion standpoint. However the exterior should be reevaluated in 3 to 5 years, in accordance with AWWA recommendations, to determine a more precise recoating schedule. The exterior coating system should be evaluated immediately prior to preparing specifications to determine if the coating adhesion is still adequate to accept a topcoat. 2. Coating Testing: Prior to preparation of specifications for the cleaning and coating of the exterior of the tank, samples of the exterior coating system should be subjected to laboratory analysis to test for ingredients which may at that time be subject to regulations concerning their handling and disposal. 3. Cleaning: When the exterior is to be cleaned, all varieties of containment should be investigated. Containment of the wind-blown debris will be required, and containment of paint droplets will be required due to the proximity of the adjacent golf course and buildings. 4. Recommended Coating System: 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 14 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 a. Spot Clean and Topcoat: If the exterior is to be repainted within the next few years, then spot cleaning and topcoating the tank appears to be the recommended option. The typical life of a spot cleaned and topcoated system is approximately 7 to 8 years, but is highly dependent on previous surface preparation and the condition of the underlying coating system. b. Coating Application: The entire exterior surfaces of the tank should be high- pressure washed to remove chalked coating, mildew, and contaminants. After washing, the damaged and rusted areas should be spot cleaned to the equivalent of an SSPC-SP 6, Commercial Blast Cleaning, or SSPC-SP 11, Power Tool Cleaning to Bare Metal. All areas of excessive coating thickness and runs in the coating should be cleaned to the equivalent of an SSPC-SP 7, Brush -Off Blast Cleaning, to remove the excessive mils. The spot cleaned areas should receive a spot prime coat compatible with the present coating system. The entire exterior surfaces should then be topcoated with a compatible coating system. 5. Alternative Coating System: a. Complete Cleaning and Repainting: The optimum long -life coating system presently available for this site is an epoxy -polyurethane coating system. Properly formulated and applied polyurethanes have good resistance to condensation, mildew, and chipping. The polyurethanes also have excellent color and gloss retention and the longest expected service life of any of the common exterior tank coatings. The typical life of a properly applied [zinc -]epoxy - polyurethane coating system is approximately 15 to 20 years. These coatings are also presently manufactured to meet current VOC requirements. b. Coating Application: The entire tank exterior should be cleaned to the equivalent of an SSPC-SP 6, Commercial Blast Cleaning and have an epoxy -primed, epoxy intermediate and polyurethane finish coating system applied. However, care must be taken during the application of this particular coating system because this coating does have poor dry -fall characteristics, and potential damage to the surrounding property must be taken into consideration. The polyurethane coatings also require close monitoring of temperature and humidity during application. 6. Effective Service Life: Tank Industry Consultants defines the life of a coating as the amount of time before repainting becomes necessary due to coating failure and corrosion. During the coating life the Owner should expect the coating to lose its gloss, start to chalk, show signs of weathering, and possibly some rust staining. Future touch-up may be required on isolated coating failures. If aesthetics are a concern, the Owner may have to topcoat the repainted tank prior to the end of the expected service life. However, future topcoating would be less expensive than complete cleaning and recoating and could delay the next complete cleaning and repainting for many years. 7. Other Systems: With air emission volatile organic compounds (VOC) restrictions being put in place around the nation, alternative coating systems may become available which would be viable options for this tank. The Owner should review the available systems prior to preparing specifications for the recoating project. S. Coating Curing: It would be more economical to paint the tank exterior at the same time the interior is painted, since the tank must be drained while the exterior is painted, and the applied coatings cure. This will also reduce mobilization and observation costs. 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 15 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 9. Rehabilitation Schedule: To obtain the lowest possible prices for the work outlined in the recommendations, the Owner should have the specifications prepared and the work bid in the spring, with the work scheduled to start in early summer (if possible). 10. Grinding and Bracket Removal: Any unused brackets or erection hugs should be removed prior to the exterior repainting. Any weld burrs, weld spatter, or erection scars should be ground off to provide a smooth surface for the application of the coating. 11. Nameplates: The tank nameplates should be removed for the cleaning and coating of the tank. The nameplates should be cleaned and reattached to the tank using the existing brackets. 12. Electrical Apparatus: All unused electrical conduit, antennas, fixtures, electrical metering equipment, cathodic protection apparatus, and control cabinets should be removed from the tank and tank site. All required equipment should be repaired and maintained in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC). 13. Shell Manholes: The weep holes in the shell manhole reinforcing plates should be tapped and plugged. 14. Overflow Pipe: The overflow pipe catch basin should be repaired or replaced. 15. Exterior Ladder: The bolted connection between the shell ladder and roof knuckle ladder should be removed and the ladder side rails welded together. 16. Roof Safety Railing: The existing safety railings should be equipped with toe bars. The deteriorated closing mechanism on the closure chain should be replaced. 17. Clog -Resistant Vent: The proper operation of the vacuum and pressure relief pallets should be routinely verified. C. Interior Surfaces 1. Life of the Interior Coating: The interior coating system appeared to be in generally good condition and providing adequate corrosion protection. Tank Industry Consultants recommends that the interior surfaces of this tank should not need to be recoated in 5 to 7 years. However, the interior recoating schedule will be dictated by the coating failure observed above the top capacity level. It is recommended that when the interior is completely cleaned and repainted, an epoxy coating system should be used. 2. Coating Testing: Prior to preparation of specifications for the cleaning and coating of the interior of the tank, samples of the interior coating system should be subjected to laboratory analysis to test for ingredients which may at that time be subject to regulations concerning their handling and disposal. 3. Recommended Interior Coating System: a. Epoxy Coating System: The optimum long -life coating system presently available for the interior of water tanks is a two -component epoxy coating system. A three -coat epoxy 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 16 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 system is recommended for the interior of this tank. This coating system should meet the certification criteria of ANSVNSF 61 and state department of health regulations. b. Coating Application: When the interior is to be repainted, the entire tank interior should be cleaned to the equivalent of an SSPC-SP 10, Near -White Blast Cleaning and an epoxy coating system applied. C. Service Life: The typical life of a properly formulated and applied epoxy coating system is approximately 12 to 15 years in immersion service. Tank Industry Consultants defines the life of a coating as the expected service life before repainting becomes necessary due to coating failure and corrosion. The Owner could extend the service life of the coating by installing, properly maintaining and operating a cathodic protection system to help protect the steel surfaces in areas which have experienced coating failure. 4. Roof Support Structure: The deteriorated purlins should be removed from the roof and replaced. At the time of the interior cleaning and painting, the tops of the roof rafters should be carefully cleaned and coated. 5. Cathodic Protection: Cathodic protection, if used and maintained properly, will control active corrosion below the water level and extend the useful life of a coating system. It should be noted that maintenance as recommended by the cathodic protection manufacturer is required for the cathodic protection system to work properly. Without proper monitoring, the cathodic protection system may operate too high and cause the coating to blister, or the system may operate too low and not adequately protect the exposed steel surfaces. 6. Pit Welding and Pit Filling: After initial cleaning, all significant pitting which is found should be welded, and all pitting with rough edges that would make the pitting difficult to coat properly should be filled with a solventless epoxy seam sealer. 7. Seam Sealing: The existing roof manhole and existing roof vent intersections should be sealed with an epoxy seam sealer at the time of the interior recoating. S. Flexible Sealant: The perimeter ring -to -roof interface and the unwelded lapped roof seams should be sealed with a flexible sealant at the time of the interior recoating. 9. Rough Edges: All unused brackets should be removed from the interior and exterior surfaces at the time of the next recoating. Any weld burrs, spatter, scars or rough edges in the steel should be ground smooth to provide a better surface for coating. 10. Overflow Inlet: The overflow inlet should be lowered so that the high water line is below the bottom of the rafter ends. 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 17 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 ECONOMIC FACTORS: Item Replacement of tank with a new one Cost Life in Years $ 1,600,000' 75+ The following is a complete list of repairs and estimated costs for their respective recommendations found in the RECOMMENDATION section of this report.

I The replacement estimate includes costs associated with new tank fabrication and erection, foundation, painting, and engineering. The budget estimate given does not include costs associated with tank demolition, site acquisition, and distribution interruptions. The following economic factors include only those work items that the Engineer believes to be the minimum to properly maintain this tank from an operational standpoint. Other items related to safety and risk management should be evaluated by the Owner. Item Cost Replace Deteriorated Roof Purlins $ 50,000 Fowidation Repair 3,000 Repair Shell -to -Roof Knuckle Ladder Connection 2,000 Install Toe Bars on Roof Safety Railing (3) 8,000 Lower Overflow Inlet 2,000 Contingency Items and Touch -Up Coating Damaged by These Items 60,000 Total of Engineer's Recommendations $ 125,000 Tank Industry Consultants has no control over the cost of labor, materials, or equipment, or over the contractors' methods of determining prices, or over competitive bidding, or the market conditions. Opinions of probable cost, as provided for herein, are to be made on the basis of our experience and qualifications and represent our best judgment as design professionals familiar with the design, 1, 000, 000 Gallon Ground ,Storage Tank, "Station 11 Tank" Page 18 Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois 15.119.H373.007 maintenance, and construction of concrete and steel plate structures. However, Tank Industry Consultants cannot and does not guarantee that proposals, bids, or the construction cost will not vary from opinions of probable cost prepared for the Owner. Due to the numerous potential scopes of work which exist, the Owner should obtain an updated budget estimate once the final scope of work has been determined. This would enable the Owner to accurately budget monies for additional mobilization costs and damaged coating rehabilitation costs. Engineering and resident observation costs are not included in the Total of the Engineer's Recommendations because these fees are dependent upon the scope of work to be performed. Tank Industry Consultants performs all facets of the engineering services which would be required for this project. Estimated fees for engineering and resident observation will be furnished upon request. CLOSURE: Brief Summation: The Village of Mount Prospect, Illinois owns and operates a 1,000,000 gallon ground storage tank that was in good overall condition at the time of this evaluation with the exception of deteriorated purlins in the interior roof support structure. Proper maintenance after completing the recommendations herein would include periodic washouts and evaluations approximately every 3 to 5 years in accordance with AWWA recommendations, and the proper maintenance of the existing ice - resistant cathodic protection system with long -life anodes. Contractor Selection: The work should be performed by a competent bonded contractor, chosen from competitive bids taken on complete and concise specifications. The coatings used should be furnished by an experienced water tank coating manufacturer, supplying the field service required for application of technical coatings. Standards for Repairs and Coatings: All work done and coatings applied should be applied in accordance with NACE, ANSI/NSF Standard 61, the manufacturer's recommendation, AWWA D100 and AWWA D102 (latest revisions), and the SSPC: The Society for Protective Coatings. Observation of Work: Observation of the work in progress by experienced personnel will offer additional assurance of quality protective coating application. Observations can be performed on a continuous basis or spot (critical phase) basis. The actual cost of observation may be less using spot as opposed to full-time resident observation; however, with spot observation it is often necessary for work to be redone to comply with the specifications. This somewhat lowers the quality of the finished product, lengthens the job, and is frequently a cause of conflict between the contractor, Owner, and field technician. Resident full-time observation minimizes the amount of "rework" required. Anniversary and Maintenance Evaluations: An anniversary evaluation should be conducted prior to the end of the one year bonded guarantee. Washouts and coating, structural, sanitary, safety, and corrosion evaluations should be conducted not less than every three years. Time Frame: If the work is not performed within the next 6 months, the structure should be reevaluated prior to the preparation of specifications and solicitation of bids. 1,000,000 Gallon Ground Storage Tank-, "Station 11 Tank Page 19 Village of Mount Prospect, 15.119,H373.007 Specifications and Bidding Documents: The recommendations in this report are not intended to be specifications on which a contractor can bid. Complete bidding documents must include general and special conditions, detailed technical specifications, and other information necessary for the competitive bidding process. To properly protect the interests of the Owner, Contractor, and Engineer; the initial evaluation, the technical specifications, legal portions of the contract documents, and the observation should be perl-brmed by the same firm or with close coordination of all parties involved. Limitations of Evaluation: It is believed that the conditions reported herein reflect the condition of the tank as observed on the date of the evaluation, using reasonable care in making the observations, and safety in gaining access to the tank. Should latent defects be discovered during the cleaning of the structure, they should be brought to the attention of the Owner and the Engineer. Seismic and Wind Loadings: This tank is located in or near a region of low seismic activity. This evaluation and the reporting of the condition of this tank do not warrant the structural condition of the tank or any of the original design for seismic loadings. Likewise, recommendations for this tank do not include modifications which may be required for compliance with present structural codes. It is possible the tank was erected in compliance with pre-existing industry standards which have since been replaced by more restrictive standards. Hazardous Materials in Coatings: It should be taken into consideration that Federal, State, and local environmental agencies have placed stricter controls on the removal of lead-based and other heavy- metal based coatings from steel structures by the use of conventional abrasive blasting techniques. The paint and blast residue may be considered to be hazardous waste depending on the concentration of lead or other particles in residue.
