Storage Tanks Hold More Than Just Oil

There are a lot of misconceptions out there about heating oil tanks. You may think tanks are unsafe ... or that they're subject to legal issues. Educating new and prospective homeowners about the benefits of oil tanks will allow them to feel more comfortable when choosing an Oilheated home.



Safety

  • Today's oil tanks are designed with corrosion-resistant materials for long life and safety.
  • Below-ground tanks are installed using new, innovative technologies.
  • Oil actually protects the tank.
  • According to a scientific study, less than 1/4 of 1% of all underground tanks nationwide ever experience a release.
  • Heating oil moves slowly in most soils, so any discharge is usually confined to a small area.

Legal Issues

  • In the U.S., all underground residential heating oil tanks regardless of size are exempt from all federal regulations.
  • In New York, all underground tanks with a capacity greater than 1,100 gallons need to be registered. (The typical home heating oil tank is 275 gallons.)

Convenience

  • A tank located on his or her property puts the homeowner in charge of supply.
  • Homeowners pay only for Oilheat received.
  • Tanks are cost-efficient - the homeowner uses only what's needed.
  • Automatic delivery assures that the homeowner never runs out of Oilheat.
  • Independence and peace of mind are big tank benefits.

Versatility

  • Tanks can be located in the basement, garage, underground or next to the home.
  • New tanks are compact in size, to fit inside small nooks and crannies in the basement or garage.



WHAT TO DO IF AN OIL TANK IS LEAKING

Suspect a leak in an underground oil tank? Call a TSSA registered fuel oil contractor to help find and stop the leak and clean up any leaked fuel oil. In Ontario, homeowners are also required to call the Spills Action Centre of the Ministry of Environment at 1-800-268-6060. Insurance companies may also have resources of information.

Underground tanks are required to be upgraded with specific leak and spill prevention equipment or be removed.

WHAT TO DO WITH UNUSED UNDERGROUND OIL TANKS

An unused underground oil tank must be removed and all contaminated soil must be cleaned. Underground tanks are required to be removed by TSSA registered fuel oil contractors.

When an underground tank is removed, the soil around the tank must be assessed for contamination and all contamination cleaned.


The following steps must be taken to decommission a storage tank:

1. All remaining oil must be pumped out from the storage tank and connected pipes. 2. Sufficient holes are cut along the top of the storage tank to inspect the tank. 3. Any residual oil or sludge along the top of the storage tank must be removed. 4. The tank must be filled with an inert material such as low density concrete slurry mix, or sand/gravel. The access must be large enough to ensure the tank has been fully filled. 5. Associated piping shall be removed from the ground or purged of vapors and the ends permanently sealed by capping or plugging. 6. Written verification from a licensed contractor is required to the District Fire Inspector for work complete. 7. For your own protection, soil around the old tank site should be tested for contamination if contamination is found, you must contact the Environmental Protection Branch for instructions on how to replace soil with clean fill.
