The release of petroleum products to the environment may be discovered when an underground storage tank, (UST) is evaluated for compliance or removed. Achieving compliance with existing federal, state and local regulations and guidelines of such sites often requires information to be generated during a UST closure assessment. Having the right information helps characterize the release properly and address questions such as whether the cleanup is needed. If so, the closure report can identify a preferred approach to the proper transportation and disposal of an underground storage tank and any petroleum waste.
Pro-Teck’s team of experienced environmental professionals can help address liability and regulatory compliance concerns so that project goals can quickly be accomplished. Our subsurface assessments include the collection, analysis and evaluation of site-specific environmental samples for release determination. Documentation of the results and conclusions presents recommendations for further study or alternative approaches to remediation, if necessary.
Cleanup always begins with source removal. Soil excavation is a widely used because this approach is simple, fast and highly effective compared to other available remedial technologies. Excavation is also preferred in many situations because it allows for the removal of contaminated soil based on visual observation of staining, while providing access for site-specific confirmatory sampling to ensure the completeness of the clean-up efforts.
