The United States Environmental
Protection Agency defines Aboveground Storage Tanks (ASTs)
as tanks or other containers that are above ground,
partially buried, bunkered, or in a subterranean vault.
The majority of such storage tanks contain motor fuels,
petroleum solvents, heating oil, lubricants, and used
oil. As these storage tanks can be found everywhere from
airports and school bus barns to hospitals and
automotive repair shops, a major concern is that product
spills have the potential to contaminate community water
supplies and soil.
|
|
|
Improperly installed aboveground
storage tanks can routinely result in the loss of
product, and an impact to the environment, costing
thousands of dollars or more per year, per tank,
that could have been saved through proper site
engineering.
At Freedom Environmental Services, we stand ready to
assist you with system design and specifications,
spill prevention control engineering, and the
development of all required State and Federal spill
contingency plans. |
