Melanie King Underground Oil Tank - Connecticut
11 December 2019 | 19 replies
there are two ways to properly close a tank: remove tank or clean it and fill with inert material. sounds like seller has not fully complied with tank closure requirements.soil samples should have been collected from beneath the tank as well as the sides. groundwater samples should also have been collected to make sure old spills did not impact groundwater.
James Carollo Is it harder to find contractors? Skilled trade shortage?
30 October 2019 | 38 replies
But one I'm pretty solid on is that the skills gap and shortages are worse in some places in the USA than in others, as are general skills levels on the part of subcontractors and expectations of acceptable work.I also think it's hard to argue that the school systems and general educational policies of this country are very wrongly focused on convincing young people that working in the trades is vaguely disgraceful and beneath the dignity of young men and women of intelligence and ability.
Nikki Cuozzo Underground oil tank

Usually, only heating oil USTs associated with commercial properties are regulated. thus, most home heating oil tanks may and often are taken out of service without any oversight from state regulators.Second- the rules that are in effect for heating oil tanks are usually less stringent than for diesel or gasoline tanks since heating oil tends to thicker and may not migrate as far. as a result, many states just require tanks to be cleaned out. they may also require the tanks to be filled with sand or concrete to prevent collapse. but sampling may not be required.Third- the key to determining if a tank has leaked is to collect soil samples from around and beneath the tank (groundwater also if groundwater is shallow). another quick way to see if a tank is leaking is to "dip" it with a stick that has a paste that turns color in the presence of water. generally, if water has gotten into a tank, it can mean oil has leaked out of the tank (although a certain amount of condensation may be present even where there is no leak so this is not a infallible test).Fourth- if there is currently a tank in the basement, ask the owner if there used to be a buried tank (a/k/a underground storage tank).Fifth, If the tank has impacted the soil, the cleanup generally varies from $25K to $50K though the costs will depend ont he depth of the contamination. i once had a home with a heated pool that had pressurized piping and used diesel. the contamination went down 40 feet and the consultant went crazy excavating the soil to the tune of $400K!!!
