UST investigation and remediation

What Are Underground Storage Tanks?

Underground storage tanks are containers buried beneath the ground that typically store petroleum products, chemicals, or other hazardous substances. Older tanks, especially those installed before modern regulations, are prone to corrosion and leaking, which can contaminate soil and groundwater. Property owners, gas stations, commercial facilities, and industrial sites may have USTs that require professional assessment.
 

Our UST Investigation Process

Our experienced team follows a systematic approach to evaluate potential contamination from underground storage tanks:

• Site assessment and historical research to identify tank locations and contents

• Soil sampling around tank areas to detect petroleum or chemical contamination

• Groundwater monitoring to assess contamination extent and migration

• Tank integrity testing to determine if active leaks are present

• Detailed reporting for regulatory compliance and remediation planning
   

Remediation Solutions

Once contamination is identified, we develop customized remediation strategies based on site conditions, contamination levels, and regulatory requirements. Our remediation services may include soil excavation and disposal, groundwater treatment systems, vapor extraction, or monitored natural attenuation. We work closely with regulatory agencies to ensure all cleanup activities meet state and federal standards.
