Draper, UT 84020 ■ Phone: (888) 763-8572 Website: CathodicProtectionUtah.com April 14, 2024 Golden Spike Sinclair ATTN: Nick Manning Facility ID: 1200059 5500 West 5500 South Hooper, UT SUBJ: SPECIFICATION FOR IMPRESSED CURRENT CP SYSTEM DESIGN Mr. Manning, We completed the design for the replacement of the CP anode groundbed for the 3 underground storage tanks at your property. The specification and design criteria for this system are listed below. SPECIFICATION AND DESIGN- GENERAL The CP (herein referred to as “CP”) system was designed to provide proper CP potentials to properly protect the underground storage tanks located at Golden Spike Sinclair, Facility ID: 1200059, 5500 West 5500 South, Hooper, UT. Proper CP potential is defined as: A negative (cathodic) potential of at least 850 mV with the CP applied. This potential is measured with respect to a Copper Copper-Sulfate Electrode (CSE) contacting the electrolyte. Voltage drops other than those across the structure/electrolyte boundary must be considered for valid interpretation of this potential measurement. Review of past CP reports show that two tanks are currently electrically continuous with the rectifier. However the UNL tank showed issues with continuity to the rectifier. A review of the operating history of the UST system from provided reports was completed, including the date of installation, tightness testing, internal inspection (where available), leak history (where available), previous structure-to-soil potentials, and as-built drawings (where available). This system was designed per criteria from NACE SP0285-2011 (formerly RP0285), “Corrosion Control of Underground Storage Tank Systems by CP” SPECIFICATION AND DESIGN – APPLICATION SPECIFIC The project Golden Spike Sinclair, Facility ID: 1200059, 5500 West 5500 South, Hooper, UT consists of three (3) Underground Fuel Storage Tanks (UST) that are steel in construction, with FRP piping and flex connecters in containment. CP has been provided for many years via an installed impressed current system. The most recent CP survey performed, showed that the system was not operating per minimum CP specifications. M&M Cathodic Protection Service, Inc. conducted a series various tests on the system, groundbed, wiring, and rectifier. After testing, it was determined that the anode ground bed was depleted and required replacement. Additionally a structure bond from the UNL tank to the PREM tank is also required to ensure continuity to the UNL tank. In preparation of a CP system design to replace the groundbed at the facility, past data was reviewed. It was determined to install an impressed current groundbed around all three (3) USTs. It should be noted once the proposed bond from UNL to PREM is completed that continuity testing will confirm the integrity of the electrical bonding between all of the tanks in this system. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION OF LOCATION: Quantity of three (3) 12,000 gallon capacity underground storage tanks constructed of steel, located in close proximity to each other (within a 40’ x 35’ area).

Draper, UT 84020 ■ Phone: (888) 763-8572 Website: CathodicProtectionUtah.com PROPERTIES OF ELECTROLYTE (soil): Soil Type: Assumed native with backfill TANK SPECIFICATIONS: Tank #1: (DSL Tank), 12,000 gallon, type Steel. Diameter: 8’, Length: 32’ Tank #2: (PREM Tank), 12,000 gallon, type Steel. Diameter: 8’, Length: 32’ Tank #3: (UNL Tank), 12,000 gallon, type Steel. Diameter: 8’, Length: 32’ Per our continuity test, all tanks are electronically continuous to each other. Therefore total surface area for the protected structure is the sum of surface areas for all tanks. Tank #1: (Diesel Tank) surface area: 904.32 ft2 Tank #2: (PREM Tank) surface area: 904.32 ft2 Tank #3: (UNL Tank) surface area: 904.32 ft2 Total surface area for all tanks (protected structure): 2,712.96 ft2 CP SYSTEM DESIGN CALCULATIONS: ANODE GROUNDBED OVERVIEW To provide CP for 100% of the external surface (2,712.96 ft2), assuming the external surface was not coated, the total current requirement would be approx. 59.68 Amps. This was calculated utilizing a current requirement of 20mA per ft2, which provides for adequate protection for the soil resistivity range to be expected for this region. Additionally, a Safety Factor (the application of intentional error in the calculations which would move the result toward a more protected state) of 10% was added to compensate for any anomalies that could be encountered. Because the external surface of the tanks is coated, we calculated the CP system current requirements to protect 10% of the external surface (meaning we are calculating to provide CP to all external tank surfaces in the event that 10% of the external coating failed). To properly protect 10% of the external tanks surface, a CP current requirement of approx. 5.96 Amps would be required; this is because the other 90% of the external surface is protected by the intact coating. This result is based upon a number of assumptions, actual current usage for the system is dependant on the actual coating condition and other factors. However, with the high current requirement variable used (20mA per ft2) in these calculations, along with the Safety Factor added, we expect this system to operate at or above the design specification herein. CP SYSTEM DESIGN CALCULATIONS: NUMBER OF ANODES REQUIRED (based on consumption weight) To calculate the number of anodes necessary we used the following calculations (reference industry standard NW Cathodic High Silicon Chrome Cast Iron anodes PN #60100, see ATTACHMENT: NW Cathodic High Silicon Chrome Cast Iron anodes PN #60100 Specification Sheet: Weight per anode: NW Cathodic PN #60100 = 50lbs. Consumption Rate: NW Cathodic PN #60100 = between 0.2 and 1.2 lbs per A-yr. (We used the 1.2 lbs per A-yr) Desired Life: 20 years Current Requirement (to protect 10% of surface area): 5.96 Amps Utilization Factor: .85 Minimum Number of anodes needed: 3.3 Anodes After taking into consideration the above as well as adequate current distribution for the life of the system, we specified a quantity of 5 NW Cathodic PN #60100 High Silicon Chrome Cast Iron anodes to replace the damaged groundbed. Based on calculations, we can expect to provide effective CP for the tanks for a period exceeding 20 years or more. Page 3 of 6 M&M Cathodic Protection Services ■ 303 Redberry Rd. Draper, UT 84020 ■ Phone: (888) 763-8572 Website: CathodicProtectionUtah.com BORE HOLE SIZE AND ANODE PLACEMENT Anode holes are to be bores using non-destructive Hydrovac, approx. 8" to 12" in diameter, approx. 6' to 9' down. Placed per ATTACHMENT 1: System Design Layout & Anode Placement. Once anodes are placed, all bore holes are then to be filled with Loresco Type RS-3, Rapid Sinking and Super Conducting Earth Contact Backfill to within 6” to 12” of grade. TYPE OF EARTH CONTACT BACKFILL RECOMMENDED Loresco earth contact backfills are produced exclusively for the corrosion control industry. Each type has been modified to enhance the functionality in relation to its suggested use. The enhancements insure intimate anode contact and enable electrolytic discharge to occur at the backfill periphery. All Loresco products have a greater than 99% fixed carbon content. This high carbon content, coupled with low resistivity, assures long system performance. Loresco earth contact backfills set the performance standard. See ATTACHMENT: Loresco Type RS-3, Rapid Sinking and Super Conducting Earth Contact Backfill Specification Sheet. TYPE OF RECTIFIER RECOMMENDED No rectifier is recommended, because the existing rectifier has been verified to be operating properly and will provide protection current necessary, per this CP design specification. Our technician installed a 1 Ohm precision power resistor on the rectifier DC output and verified proper operation over a range of output settings.
