Underground Tank Pull in Santa Ana, CA

Environmental Management Technologies was called out by one of our long standing clients to help out in the removal of a couple of underground storage tanks that were found on site during the grading process. Since the project was already so far along, and these tanks that were discovered were not a part of the original plans, time was of the essence. This project was for one of the largest home developers in the United States.

We responded quickly with a crew to make sure these tanks were properly managed and hauled off-site for recycle. In order to properly handle an underground storage tank, you must first identity the contents, or former contents if empty, and put a plan in place accordingly.

For the fuel tank (UST), the gasoline must be removed via vacuum tanker. And then the tank must be “inerted”, a process in which the oxygen in the tank is displaced with another inert, non-explosive gas like carbon dioxide. Once the tank has been cleared of vapors, with confirmation from an LEL reading, the tank can be cleaned and removed from the ground and sent away for scrap.

Environmental Management Technologies provides a variety of services related to homeless camps or encampments. Biohazard cleanup at homeless encampments is the main reason our customers call us. The liability to government agencies that utilize their own employees to clean an encampment site can be huge.

Removing the trash and waste from the homeless camps is often an overwhelming task for government entities and businesses. Many of our customers contract for weekly or monthly cleanings so homeless encampments never grow too large and become unmanageable.

While Environmental Management Technologies is hired by cities, counties, businesses, and banks, it is important to realize the very real human element about what we do. Discarding a persons’ only possessions is no easy task. We make every effort to work with our customers to give notice to all of those whose contents we will be taking. Posting signs with 72 hour vacate notices, and will even hand over any items of monetary or sentimental value over to the authorities for the owner to claim.
