There are over 1 million USTs in the United States containing petroleum products or other hazardous materials. Even with all the new technology and regulations created to avoid dangers of leaking tanks, proper maintenance is crucial to reduce the risk of future leaks.  With 50% of the American public using ground water as their drinking water, it is imperative that we remain proactive.  As UST operators, there are steps you can take to avoid a catastrophe.

All UST’s must have leak detection, overfill protection, corrosion protection, and must have been installed according to industry codes

There are warning signs to pay attention to and early intervention can help to avoid further damage.   Noticing changes in your leak detection monitoring systems and unusual operating conditions are red flags. Early response can save you time, money, and damage to the environment.

Tanks require maintenance and repairs to keep them in safe, working condition. Other times we find that upgrades are necessary to keep the tank in compliance with state and federal regulations. Trust us to repair and upgrade your UST to keep you in compliance and save you money and costly downtime.  Give us a call at 781-245-3305 for a consultation today.
