Service: Underground Storage Tank Removals
Any unmodified underground storage tanks (USTs) installed before 1988 in California should have been upgraded, replaced or removed by the end of 1998. According to Federal and State of California regulations, December 22, 1998 was the deadline. There is no extension.
Owners who missed this deadline are finding their insurance carrier canceling coverage. In addition, owners who are out of compliance with current tank laws may jeopardize any claims to State of California UST funds for financial assistance in cleaning up petroleum leaks.
The following tanks will need to be upgraded, replaced or removed:
* All single-wall unprotected steel tanks storing motor vehicle fuel.
* All tanks that don't have spill and overfill prevention and striker plates.
* All single-wall tanks containing hazardous substances such as chemicals
Also, any piping that does not have secondary containment or corrosion protection must either be upgraded with corrosion protection, subject to local agency verification that the piping is structurally sound, or be replaced with secondary containment.
For detailed UST laws and regulations, please contact the State Water Resources Board, your county health department, or city fire department. Or simply contact The Reynolds Group, environmental consultants, contractors, and specialists for tank removal, upgrade and replacement.
