Operators of fueling sites with fiberglass tanks that were installed after the EPA 40 CFR part 280 UST regulations were launched in 1988 are now looking at a tank population that is between 20 and 30 years old.
Prudent operational practices suggest that it's time to evaluate those tanks and fueling systems – and get solid answers to some really important questions: What's the condition of the tanks? Can you get by with them for another 5 or 10 years? Do any need to be repaired or upgraded? Do any need to be replaced now? And if so, how do you prioritize them?
These can be tough questions to get good answers to. But those answers are important. If you could get a good look at the conditions inside your tanks, what would you see?
