If a receiving tank's AFTO form 244/245 lists an open Red X condition, the correct action to take is to not fill the receiving tank. This means that there is a maintenance issue or problem with the tank that needs to be resolved before it can be filled. Filling the tank in this condition could potentially cause further damage or safety risks. Therefore, it is important to not fill the tank and address the issue before proceeding.

Type III, IV, and V hydrant systems are typically used in buildings or facilities where there is a higher risk of fire. These systems require regular flushing to ensure that the water supply is clean and free from any debris or sediment that could potentially hinder the system's effectiveness during an emergency. Flushing the hydrant systems monthly allows for the continuous maintenance and inspection of the system, ensuring that it is always in optimal working condition and ready to be used if needed.

When obtaining quantity readings with the automated tank gauge (ATG) tank control unit, you must press the "TANK" key first when switching between tanks. This key is likely used to select the specific tank for which you want to obtain the quantity reading.

If a review of a receiving tank's AFTO form 134 finds that the form is not properly filled out, the correct action is to not service the receiving tank. This is because a properly filled out form ensures that the necessary information and checks have been completed before servicing the tank. By not servicing the tank, it reduces the risk of potential errors or issues that may arise from an incomplete form.

If backflow is detected during multiple source refueling, it is necessary to stop the operation immediately. Backflow indicates that fuel is flowing in the wrong direction, which can lead to fuel contamination or damage to the fuel system. Stopping the operation helps prevent any further issues and ensures the safety and integrity of the refueling process.

The correct answer states that when multiple source refueling, the refueling units must remain positioned and bonded until fuel flow is terminated on all trucks on that side of the aircraft. This is important to ensure safety and prevent any potential accidents or fuel leaks during the refueling process. By remaining positioned and bonded, it ensures that the refueling units are securely connected to the aircraft and that the fuel flow is properly controlled and monitored. Once fuel servicing is completed on all trucks on that side of the aircraft, the refueling units can then be safely disconnected and removed.

If an unsafe fueling operation is noticed while performing expediter duties, the immediate action that must be taken is to terminate the operation. This is the appropriate response in order to prevent any potential accidents or hazards that may arise from the unsafe operation. By immediately terminating the operation, the risk is mitigated and the safety of personnel and equipment is prioritized.

A fuels expediter is required for aircraft fueling. This operation involves the process of refueling aircraft with the necessary fuel to ensure their proper functioning. A fuels expediter is responsible for coordinating and managing the fueling process, ensuring that the correct type and amount of fuel is delivered to the aircraft. They also monitor fuel levels, maintain safety protocols, and ensure efficient fueling operations. Therefore, aircraft fueling is the operation that requires a fuels expediter to be used.

During a hydrant flushing operation, it is important to flush the loop with a minimum of twice the line volume. This means that the amount of water used for flushing should be at least twice the volume of the water in the pipeline. This ensures that any sediment or debris in the pipeline is effectively removed. Flushing with a higher volume helps to dislodge and flush out any contaminants more thoroughly. It is important to use a minimum of 2,000 gallons of water during the flushing process to ensure an adequate amount of water is used. The flushing process should continue until a sump sample is obtained, indicating that the water is clean and free from any debris. The flushing operation should be carried out for at least 30 minutes to ensure thorough cleaning.

A rapid defuel operation is considered a hot defuel whenever the source or provider aircraft has any engine running. This means that as long as there is any engine in operation on the source or provider aircraft, the defuel operation is considered to be hot. It is not necessary for all engines to be running or for the engine to be located on the same side as the refueling receptacle. As long as any engine is running, it is considered a hot defuel.

When documenting a cryogenic product issue on the AFTO form 134, the odor test results should be annotated as either FAIL or PASS in column D. This indicates whether the product has failed or passed the odor test.

The surge suppressor gauge on the R-20 servicing unit should indicate 90 PSI when the fueling system is not operating. This indicates the pressure at which the surge suppressor is able to regulate and control any sudden surges or fluctuations in pressure within the system. It is important for the gauge to show this pressure to ensure the proper functioning and safety of the fueling system.

When preparing an R-18 for shipment, it is important to dispose of all drained fuel in accordance with both local and federal environmental regulations.
