5.MONITORING SYSTEM AND PROGRAMMING
A separate Monitoring System Certification Form must be prepared for each control panel.
Make of Monitoring System
Control Panel
Model of Monitoring System
Control Panel
Software Version Installed
Attach the post-certification reports if the monitoring system is capable of generating
either; Monitoring System Set-up Alarm History Report Yes No NA
All monitoring equipment is operational per manufacturer’s specifications?
Secondary containment systems are free of damage, debris, or liquid?
Are the audible and visual alarms operational?
All sensors have been: 1) visually inspected for wiring kinks, breaks and residual
buildup on floats; and 2) tested for functionality and confirmed operational?
Are all sensors installed to detect a release at the earliest opportunity in the
secondary containment?
The monitoring system set-up was reviewed, and proper settings confirmed?
Was the monitoring control panel’s backup battery visually inspected, functionally
tested, and confirmed operational?
Does the flow of fuel stop at the dispenser if a release is detected in the under-
dispenser containment?
Does the turbine automatically shut down if the piping secondary containment
monitoring system fails to operate or is electrically disconnected?
Does the turbine automatically shut down if the piping secondary containment
monitoring system detects a release? Which sensors initiate positive shut down?
(Check all that apply) Sump UDC
If monitoring system alarms are relayed to a remote monitoring center, is all
communication equipment operational?

10.MONITORING SITE PLAN
Date site plan was prepared:
If a site plan has been prepared that shows all required information, you may include it, rather than this page,
with your Monitoring System Certification Form. The site plan must show the general layout of tanks and
identify locations of the monitoring panel, and all leak detection equipment and monitoring locations. Include
a legend for all symbols depicted.
