UST/AST Compliance. Removal/Closure
|
Cribbs & Associates, Inc. provides complete Underground Storage Tank (UST) and Aboveground Storage Tank (AST) compliance services including:
Site Specific Installation Permits also require a full geologic investigation by a licensed Professional Geologist. |
Cribbs & Associates Inc. provides complete removal/closure services for USTs and ASTs. |
Cribbs & Associates Inc. also provides complete removal/closure services
of USTs and ASTs. Removal services include confined space vessel entry
cleaning, removal, transportation and disposal of storage tanks. All
activities are overseen by the certified storage tank inspectors and all
associated environmental assessment activities are overseen by a
licensed Professional Geologist.
Property owners dealing with underground storage tank cleanups may also
be eligible for USTIF funding (Underground Storage Tank Indemnification
Fund). Approximately 1 penny for every gallon of gas purchased in
Pennsylvania goes into this fund for environmental assessment and
remediation of UST facilities, but eligibility and fund procurement can
be an exacting process. At Cribbs & Associates, Inc., we possess both
demonstrated skill and experience in obtaining USTIF funding.
Act 2 Liability Release
The Pennsylvania Land Recycling and Remediation Standards Act (Act 2)
encourages the remediation and reuse of contaminated industrial and
commercial sites. Redevelopment of existing sites already integrated
into the local infrastructure of utilities, water lines, sewers, and
roads is a cost-effective alternative to new construction and helps
preserve virgin land.
Act 2 provides uniform remediation standards and review procedures, with
cleanup plans geared to the actual risk of contamination from a specific
site. Under Act 2, sites can be cleaned to the highest state-wide
standards for residential use, or can be maintained for non-residential
and industrial use at less stringent standards. An Act 2 Liability
Release provides current and subsequent future property owners with
liability release for impacted properties.
Geotechnical Investigations
|
Cribbs & Associates, Inc. is experienced in providing the
highest quality geotechnical investigations for both commercial
and residential construction projects. These projects typically
involve soil boring and rock coring activities to obtain
classification data including density/consistency, USCS
classifications, moisture, plasticity, cohesiveness, and rock
quality designations for the determination of bearing capacity
and lateral load capacity of the subsurface material. This data
can then be utilized to supplement foundation designs and
determine site preparation requirements. |

Certified Asbestos Inspector
Because of its unique physical properties, such as resistance to fire, high tensile strength, low heat/electrical conductivity, and chemical durability, asbestos was utilized in a vast array of construction materials. However, exposure to asbestos is known to cause mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis in humans. As per U.S. EPA guidelines, any person performing asbestos inspections in the state of Pennsylvania must hold a valid Asbestos Inspectors Certification issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry. Cribbs and Associates, Inc. has a Licensed Asbestos Inspector (Gary Cribbs, Certification #038570), and is capable of conducting asbestos inspections and overseeing asbestos abatement services.
