As in tank closure, a building permit must first be procured. The area is excavated. All fluids and sludge are removed from the exposed tank. Access holes are cut in the tank, and the inside is cleaned and hand wiped. PRO TANK technicians remove the tank from the ground and also remove the vent and fill pipes. The tank is inspected for perforations and eroded areas, and the soil which immediately surrounded the tank is examined for signs of leakage. After the local building inspector and/or fire code official has approved the open excavation site, the tank is taken for disposal at an appropriate scrap yard. The hole is filled with clean dirt from the excavation and other inert material. The site is graded and, if appropriate, grass seed and hay are applied. PRO TANK issues a Certificate of Removal. |
