Underground Storage Tank Sump Maintenance
Overview
Despite advances that have greatly reduced the threat of petroleum releases from
UST systems into the environment, some UST systems continue to experience
releases. Inadequate operation and maintenance of sumps is one reason these
systems continue to leak into the environment.
In
this course, the student will learn about types of sumps, basic maintenance
procedures for sumps and spill buckets, how to access sumps and spill buckets
and what to do to ensure that the sumps and spill buckets are in good condition
to prevent loss of containment.
The
student is expected to read and review the material contained in the UST
Systems: Inspecting and Maintaining Sumps and Spill Buckets as published by the
US – Environmental Protection Agency
The student must take a
multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten questions at the end of
this course to obtain PDH credits.
