Chase Environmental Group (Chase) has removed over a hundred underground storage tanks in various locations in Kentucky and Indiana. Tanks have been located in military, industrial and commercial sites, and airports. Typical tank removal projects have ranged in size from 500-gallon to 10, 000-gallon tanks.

After a tank has been removed, soil and ground-water samples are collected and analyzed as required by state regulations. Samples are analyzed for benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, xylene, lead, or polyaromatic hydrocarbons.

Chase has managed the collection, validation, verification, reporting, and interpretation of hundreds of soil samples and groundwater samples from tank removal projects.

Tanks may contain sludge, which is sampled, profiled and disposed of as special waste or hazardous waste. Any water in tanks or tank pits is removed sampled, analyzed and treated, or recycled.

As appropriate, hydrogeologic assessments include installation, development, and sampling of monitoring wells; abandonment of inactive and/or improperly constructed monitoring wells; and development and implementation of monitoring programs for collection, interpretation, mapping, and reporting of ground-water data.

If the analytical results taken from the soil samples are above regulatory limits, Chase develops state approved corrective action plans for remediating the site. Activities may include excavation, profiling, and waste disposal, or remediation using alternative remedial measures such as insitu bioremediation and soil vapor extraction.

Financial assistance is available for eligible tank owners / operators through a motor fuel tax or fees collected by most states. The funds are then used to remove leaking USTs, conduct site remediation, and perform correction action if required. Chase acts as a liaison between UST owners / operators and regulatory agencies to minimize or eliminate out-of-pocket expenses incurred while closing the environmental incident.
