TANK REMOVAL PROCEDURES |
We will expose the top of the tank using the best suited machine for the job. |
|
We will cut the top of the tank open to produce a hole approximately 2’ wide by 4’ long. |
|
We will vacuum the tank of any free product as well as vacuum out sludge and residual oil. The interior of your tank will be pressure washed. |
|
Upon removal of all sludge and washwater the tank will be removed from the ground and inspected for holes. |
|
A soil sample will be collected from beneath the tank under Chain of Custody protocols and witnessed by local authorities. The soil sample will be sent to a state certified lab. If there is no presence of oil, the excavation will be backfilled and the area will be restored. |
|
The old oil tank will be then loaded onto our trucks and hauled away to a licensed disposal facility. |
|
We will issue a letter report summarizing the project and soil results. |
