And that's why we're standing over poop. This is a waste and water treatment plant, and it just happens to be the tank where poop goes. Yep, we said poop. To make sure that these tanks don't rust and corrode away to nothing, leaving an unimaginable mess, we bristle blast the surfaces down, test for adhesion, and then bristle blast again to make sure the surfaces are up to par for our coatings to adhere to. See, we can't shut down shop when maintenance and repair And if we never did maintenance like this, your sewage would end up where it's not supposed to be. But somebody's gotta do it.
