A+ Environmental Solutions, LLC

A+ Environmental Solutions, LLC (AES), has many years of experience in the removal and disposal of underground storage tanks (USTs). These tanks are used to liquids such as gasoline, diesel, fumigants, and solvents. Other tanks include clarifiers, used for industrial wastewater processing, and sumps, pits, and other subsurface features which store, convey, or process wastewater, chemicals, and chemical waste.

AES helps clients obtain reimbursement from state Leaking Underground Storage Tank funds (LUFT). This insurance program for qualified clients pays for most remediation work and reporting conforms to standards. Federal and state regulations prescribe strict design, operation, and decommissioning practices for USTs and other such subsurface containers. Many states mandate specific requirements including permits, containment, monitoring, inspections, and sampling for the removal and closure of the subsurface elements. In the event that said subsurface container has been determined to be leaking, the cleanup of resulting soil contamination is typically under the oversight of a local regulatory agency. As such, groundwater investigation and cleanup activities are typically regulated by regional water quality control boards.

AES will determine all relevant information regarding the container, regulatory requirements for removal, meet or exceed all regulatory guidelines for removal, provide reporting and communication with regulators with the goal of achieving “closure” to the site as it pertains to said subsurface containers. AES understands that often, time is of the essence in completing such projects, we invest all efforts in competing these projects as time-efficiently as possible.
