Storage Tank (UST) / SPCC Management
Close, upgrade, and stay compliant on fuel and oil storage, from a licensed pollutant storage systems contractor.
What it is, and when you need it.
GeoTech is a licensed Pollutant Storage Systems Contractor. We handle underground storage tank (UST) removal and closure, tank system compliance, Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) planning, and discharge response for gas stations, fleet yards, and industrial sites. Where a closure turns up impact, we run the remediation during the closure rather than as a separate phase.
You likely need this if…
- You own a gas station, fleet yard, or fuel-using facility
- A tank is being removed, replaced, or taken out of service
- You need an SPCC plan for bulk oil storage
- A tank system failed a compliance inspection
- A closure turned up a suspected discharge

What drives cost and timeline.
Number and size of tanks
More and larger tanks mean more permitting, removal, and disposal.
Whether a discharge is found
A clean closure ends quickly; a discharge triggers assessment and cleanup.
System upgrade scope
A straight closure differs from a full replacement or upgrade.
Site conditions
Access, canopy, and paving affect the work and restoration.
Frequently asked questions.
Do you handle both the tank and the cleanup?
Yes. Running assessment and any remediation during the closure saves a separate mobilization and time.
What is SPCC?
A federal Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure plan required for many facilities storing bulk oil above threshold quantities.
Can you close a tank before a sale?
Yes, and documenting the closure removes a common deal-killer for buyers and lenders.
