Storage Tank Management

 

A concern of every owner/operator of aboveground storage tanks (AST) and underground storage tanks (UST) is the release of stored product into the environment. Such a release could result in the disruption of operations, loss of revenues, and lawsuits.

Summit has developed a storage tank management (STM) program to help our clients through such difficulties. Our staff of environmental professionals employ their years of experience to develop solutions to tank release problems. We believe the best approach to a problem is to effectively communicate with our clients and with local, state, and federal regulatory agencies on a regular basis. It is this communication, along with our application of state-of-the-art technologies, that enables us to complete the project on time and within budgetary constraints.

Summit ensures project goals are achieved in a cost-effective manner. Our goal for every project is to assess the nature and extent of the problem, evaluate alternatives for corrective action, submit and gain approval of the corrective actions, and implement the corrective action with the ultimate goal of site closure within applicable regulations.
