Environmental Remediation Services
Colossal Contracting cost-effectively manages the remediation of contaminated materials caused by leaking oil tanks, while diligently working within Ontario Contaminated Sites rules and regulations as while catering to our client’s needs.
Underground Storage take leakage usually starts with small perforations in the metal that gradually increase in size over time. Even if a tank has been pumped out and abandoned in place, typically there is still a thick layer of “sludge” that remains along the bottom interior surface. The surrounding groundwater will flow into the tank through these holes. With continued metal corrosion, the sludge now mixed with groundwater, starts to leak into the surrounding soil causing contamination of surrounding soil.
