    Underground Storage Tank (UST)/Aboveground Storage Tank (AST) Compliance

    ET has developed a comprehensive UST program to assist tank owners. We assist clients by designing a UST removal project using state of the art work specifications to reduce the threat of injury, property damage or environmental contamination. A certified consultant is present during the removal and/or installation of the UST to insure the work is carried out in the specified manner.

    New AST regulations currently being enforced by the EPA require most AST owners with a single AST above 660 gallons, or two or more ASTs in excess of 1,320 gallons combined, to have a spill prevention control and countermeasures (SPCC) plan. This plan examines the AST system piping, secondary containment, loading and unloading areas, facility drainage, surface water receptors, spill history, site security and training. After the site-specific SPCC plan is developed, a registered professional engineer is required to certify the plan. ET has the experience to tailor your SPCC plan to efficiently bring your AST/UST system to compliance.

Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans

A SWPP plan is designed to reduce contaminants form entering the storm water and to eliminate contaminants from discharging off-site or into surface water. The SWPP plan consist of evaluation all discharges to storm water systems, eliminating improper connections to storm water piping systems, reducing run-on from off-site areas and minimizing the amount of pollutants in storm water.

A SWPP plan consists of planning and organizing a pollution prevention team, conducting a site assessment to determine if storm water pollution sources are present and/or discharging off-site, identifying best management practices to reduce storm water pollution and discharge, implementing best management practices, and SWPP evaluation. We also work with your staff and provide training to minimize or eliminate storm water pollution and off-site discharge.

Compliance Audits and Management

ET has developed a process for reviewing commercial and industrial facilities, which permits these facilities to better manage regulatory compliance issues and to minimize the potential for missing crucial regulatory deadlines. The procedure involves an in-depth review and evaluation of current permits and compliance requirements and the development of a Compliance Management Program. ET also provides compliance audits allowing facilities to check their working programs. We provide recommendations on how to improve current compliance practices and how to implement new programs that may be necessary.
