Underground and Aboveground Storage Tanks
Underground storage tanks (USTs) have been targeted as a major
contributor to soil and groundwater contamination therefore; the United
States Environmental Protection Agency has issued mandates and
regulations covering the design, installation, repair, and removal of USTs.
In addition, aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) can also pose a potential
risk to the environment. For this reason, they are subject to many
regulations including leak detection systems, structural integrity
specifications, and release prevention measures.
