Underground Storage Tank Systems

Underground Storage (UST) Installation

Underground storage tank installations are naturally more complex than the installation of aboveground fuel systems. And installing an underground tank varies by site. This is where our years of technical and situational experience offer a real value. You might say “we’ve seen them all” and can leverage that experience and skill to craft a solution that works best for your business. You can expect thorough and timely communication throughout the preparation and installation process, with minimal disruption to the facility and grounds.

Underground Storage Inspection

California requires a third-party tank inspection program that meets EPA mandates. All underground storage tank systems are required to be checked once every three years after the initial inspection.

Other UST Services we provide include:

  • Water removal and disposal
  • Fuel sampling and laboratory analysis
  • Fuel cleaning and polishing services
  • Leak detection/System testing

UST Removal Service

In Compliance Services has been providing underground storage tank (UST) removals, underground tank closures-in-place, and UST replacement services in Northern California for over a decade.

What are the benefits to hiring an experienced underground tank removal contractor? A properly removed underground tank can expedite real estate transactions, satisfy engineering site assessments, and remove the UST record from the state’s database. Our technicians sample the excavation’s sidewalls, pit bottom, and areas surrounding removed piping. We can provide a lab analysis of the soil if needed, and all hazardous waste generated by the removal is properly disposed of.

Safety is our top priority. Our employees are trained in OSHA Hazwoper and Confined Space Entry. We notify the local fire department in advance of every job, prepare confined space entry  permits and health and safety plans, provide a dig-safe of the property and ensure that all fuel and chemical vapors are properly displaced before cutting and entering a tank.

UST Closure-in-place

We also provide UST closure-in-place services if that is the best solution for the site in question.

In Compliance Services is your source for reasonable pricing and professional service. We have a seasoned, well-trained team on staff, and have forged strong working relationships with third-party contractors where specialist skills need to be contracted for. We commit to protecting your property’s appearance, restoring the site to its original condition once the installation or closure is complete.

In Compliance Services has a skilled and experienced crew on staff that will repair or replace most common storage tank components. These parts include spill buckets, containment sumps, fuel monitoring systems, and double-wall pipes. In Compliance Services will furnish your tank with all necessary upgrades with minimal impact on your business operation.
