What
is a Leaking Underground Storage Tank? |
Leaking
underground storage tanks can lead to pollution
of the environment by releasing their contents
(gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, etc.) into the soil
and / or groundwater that surrounds them.

|
What are the Dangers of
Leaking Underground Storage Tanks? |
By law, the party
responsible for the release is required to fully
investigate and remediate (if deemed necessary)
the contamination. If you don't act
properly, you can be subject to fines of up to
$5,000 per day! In addition, the
devaluation of the real estate caused by an
unknown or unaddressed environmental problem is
monumental.
