Underground Storage Tank Removal, Loraine County, Ohio

Hull's experience in resolving petroleum issues safely, quickly and cost-effectively is what sets us apart. We do this by streamlining investigations, implementing risk-based corrective action, using and evaluating innovative technologies, and staying on top of regulatory requirements. We have successfully managed hundreds of UST projects, including more than 850 for a major oil company.

Hull strives to conduct corrective actions in the most effective manner by applying a risk-based corrective action that can save both time and money, and limit liability. We follow applicable regulations and incorporate site-specific exposure assumptions to develop an investigative or remedial approach that minimizes site closure costs and protects human health and the environment.

Hull has evaluated numerous sites and can quickly determine the most suitable techniques to obtain reliable data and perform corrective actions. Hull maintains a data management system that electronically accepts data from the laboratory and places the data in a tabular format for interpretation. Hull can also employ geographic data position system (GPS) data management allowing for efficient spatial site data management with GIS.

Hull is a member of the Ohio Bureau of Underground Storage Tank Regulations rule development committee and serves on the Petroleum Underground Storage Tank Release Compensation Board. Hull developed the BUSTR Tier 2 spreadsheets for both the 1999 and 2005 BUSTR corrective action rules.

Providing full-scale remediation system design, Hull has successfully used system control and data acquisition (SCADA) to remotely monitor and control remediation systems decreasing system operation and maintenance visits and increasing overall system operational time by 30 to 40 percent, thus decreasing lifecycle costs to cleanup.
