SCHEDULE
January - May 2004

The 280 foot diameter tank holds 16 million gallons of water. Abhe & Svoboda, Inc. abrasive blasted both the interior and exterior of the tank using a recyclable steel grit abrasive. Following coal tar coatings removal in the tank interior, a 100% solids epoxy coating was applied under full dehumidification. For a few months, environmental conditions were held very strictly during coatings application. The exterior was painted with a moisture cured urethane.
