DIXON performs a Maintenance Inspection (MI) on all Steel and Concrete Structures in order to review:

• Coating performance
• Structural damage
• OSHA standards and EPA health requirements
• Need for cathodic protection

Once the inspection is complete, the owner is made fully aware of the coating systems, the expected life, and any environmental concerns. If repairs are necessary, the inspection will evaluate the cost of removal, collection, disposal and recoating, establish a recommended date of work, and itemize all repairs to the tank. DIXON will provide the owner with a detailed report of the inspection.

Environmental Concerns

The quality of the existing coating and recoatability is measured against new OSHA lead standards and containment requirements; therefore, coating samples are collected to determine possible environmental concerns. Due to the cost on particular projects, DIXON recommends the owner's engineer evaluate replacement versus repair.

General Recommendations

DIXON will arrange a date of inspection that is mutually agreeable.
