Which secondary containment system is NOT typically tested every 36 months?

  1. Underground storage tank

  2. Piping system

  3. Dispenser hose and nozzle assembly

  4. Leak detection system

The correct answer is: Dispenser hose and nozzle assembly

The dispenser hose and nozzle assembly is typically not subjected to the same testing frequency as underground storage tanks, piping systems, and leak detection systems. While the other components listed are mandated to undergo tests every 36 months to ensure their integrity and ability to contain potential leaks, the dispenser hose and nozzle assembly usually has flexible requirements based on the operational conditions and manufacturer specifications. These assemblies do require regular inspections and maintenance to ensure they are functioning appropriately and free from leaks, but formal testing for secondary containment is not as strictly regulated on a three-year cycle as the other systems. The emphasis on regular checks and operational reliability helps ensure safety without imposing the same testing frequency as other containment systems.
