Why Choose this Training Course?
An Underground Solvent Storage Tank system (USST) is a combination of tank and underground piping connected that has at least 10 percent of its combined volume underground. The greatest potential hazard from a leaking UST is that it can seep into the soil and contaminate groundwater. In addition, the USST environmental risks include the potential for fire and explosion. Such hazards highlight the importance of this customized course for the persons responsible for operating and maintaining this type of storage tanks.
