Regulatory & compliance approach

Typical regulatory themes we consider

• Storage tank system integrity – condition of UST/AST systems, containment, overfill protection, leak detection, and associated appurtenances, with an eye toward future upgrade or replacement needs.
• Release prevention and response – spill control measures, on-site response materials, and documentation of incident reporting procedures required by state UST rules and EPA expectations.
• Inspection, testing, and maintenance – records for tightness testing, line leak detection, cathodic protection, overfill equipment checks, and other periodic requirements that must be documented for regulators and auditors.
• Operating practices – loading/unloading, product transfer, dispenser shutdown, and fueling procedures, including how day-to-day practices compare to written procedures and manufacturer guidance.
• Documentation & recordkeeping – permits, testing reports, inspection logs, and training records needed to demonstrate compliance to regulators, buyers, and insurers.

Condition-focused assessments for different audiences

Because our background is in construction and maintenance, our compliance work naturally leans toward condition assessments and forward planning. We routinely support:

• Owners and corporate EHS teams planning equipment upgrades to keep aging systems aligned with state UST program requirements.
• Portfolio-level reviews for corporate networks, where equipment condition and compliance risk factor into decisions to retain, sell, or reinvest in sites.
• Pre-purchase inspections and due diligence assessments for potential buyers and lenders evaluating petroleum facilities or fleet fueling sites.
• Government and municipal owners who need independent assessments of existing infrastructure to plan upgrades, funding requests, or risk reduction projects.

Our reports are organized to show what is required, what is strongly recommended, and what is a future planning consideration. That structure helps you sequence corrective actions over time instead of reacting only to the most recent inspection or violation.
