What’s Wrong Piping Corrosion

What's wrong with this picture?

The attempt to isolate the metal product pipe from the earth, therefore eliminating corrosion, is only as good as the quality of the wrap job. Notice the speck of metal showing near the end of the pipe around 11 o'clock. That's all it takes not to be protected.

What’s Wrong Shear Flush

What's wrong with this picture?

The quick connect valve angling up on the left of the shear valve should never be left in place. The tester who was at the site last left it in place so when he went to test again he won't have to reconnect his test port: lazy practice plus if the shear valve was struck and the quick connect broke off, the shear valve flapper would activate but if the pump was running, all the fuel would gush out where the quick connect broke off.
