The original location of the new Kinney pump suction isolation valves was just on the upstream of the blower so that they can be easily maintained / operated without using ladders or platforms. However, after re-evaluating the system, we decided to relocated the valves to the vertical section of the pipe which is about 7ft from ground level for the following reasons:

1. The piping system is more flexible for future pump system upgrade. 2. Easier for fabrication and require less down-time of the Kinney #2 when working on the tie-in of Kinney #1. 3. Reduce the vibration on the isolation valve from the Kinney Pump Skid. 4. Increase the volume of space between the Kinney pump and the valve giving a "buffer" for running the Kinney Pump while the valve is opening.

The following items were discussed during this meeting: 1. The manual isolation valves on cooling water line need to be lowered so that they can be operated without a ladder. 2. A lifting pan is needed for removing the actuator on the Kinney pump suction valve. 3. There needs to be a plan for the installation process to keep the piping clean / reduce clean-up time. 4. Relief on the Kinney Pump coalescer needs to be modified for easier maintenance. 5. Discharge pressure of the Kinney pump needs to be understood - Per P&I 72800-0012 / 0013, the set-up pressure is 1.8 ATM downstream of the ring pump.

Action Items: 1. Shirley needs to check with Mark Stapleton and Bill
