Performance or Preference? City of Anoka Water Tank Reconditioning Revisited

In 2003, the City of Anoka, Minnesota completed the reconditioning of its 400,000-gallon legged water storage tank. A 2-year warranty inspection followed in 2005. The project was introduced in the May 2007 issue of the Journal of Protective Coatings. Its significance was that reconditioning of interior surfaces, above the high waterline, were treated with a trial application of three coating system solutions.

Its significance was that reconditioning of interior surfaces, above the high waterline, were treated with a trial application of three coating system solutions. In 2009 the City contracted again with an engineer for a periodic inspection of the tank including the interior surfaces. The results of the evaluation lead to planning between the city and its engineer for the completion of maintenance repairs scheduled for the summer of 2011. In the end, surfaces coated with moisture-cured organic zinc, performed best.
