Increasing liabilities for owners or operators of underground storage tanks (USTs), under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and other regulations, has caused many facility managers to either upgrade to new UST standards or to switch operations to aboveground storage tanks (ASTs). In either case, closure of the older USTs is recommended. AST operators are also experiencing increasingly strict requirements imposed by fire safety and environmental officials.
Tank management services and benefits include:
Strict Quality Control - RCRA Compliance
Experienced and Licensed Professionals
Spill Prevention, Control & Countermeasures (SPCC) Plans
UST/AST Inspections, Testing, Closures, and Upgrades
ZimTech offers clients the peace of mind that comes from working with experienced and licensed professionals. The client's exposure to the significant liabilities involved in storage tank management can be minimized by using professionals who are careful to follow appropriate environmental, health and safety regulations including waste management requirements. |

ZimTech professionals have experience with engineering inspections for corrosion, cracks, and existing repairs in fuel tanks and other above-ground liquid storage structures, including certification of RCRA compliance and spill prevention, control, and countermeasures (SPCC) plans. Our engineering-certified SPCC plans have included cost-effective compliance strategies and loss prevention techniques. These have been reviewed and approved by state and federal regulatory agencies.
ZimTech recommendations for further actions, if any, are closely coordinated with your requirements. Once a plan of action has been agreed upon, we can coordinate the activities of equipment contractors, repair technicians, and design professionals, creating a team dedicated to serving your needs.
If a UST closure is desired, ZimTech can complete appropriate notifications and reports required by regulatory authorities. During tank work, an on-site ZimTech professional will direct environmental sample collection, observe activities of contractors, and document compliance with appropriate environmental standards. In the unfortunate event a release has occurred, ZimTech specializes in the use of risk-of-exposure assessment methods to limit the need for unduly expensive corrective actions. |
