Protecting Precious Resources
Is Our Commitment
Protecting our environment is essential for a healthy planet. We are committed to protecting our precious communities from environmental risks posed by Fueling Systems, and we are a leader in this important industry.
Underground and Above Ground Storage Tanks pose unique threats to our groundwater. Their contents must be properly contained and inspected to ensure that leaks do not harm our water supply. At TAIT, we are passionate about this, and it is the core of our Environmental Business.
Our National Fleet of technicians, designers, and managers are responsible for the Construction, Testing, Repairs, and Regulatory Compliance of Underground and Above Ground Storage Tanks across the Country.
Featured Environmental Projects
Bishop, CA
Southern California Edison (SCE) is responsible for providng electricity to 14 million people across 50,000 square miles. TAIT designed and installed a complex above ground storage tank system which serves as SCE's remotely located hydroelectric facility, located in Bishop, CA.
Various Remote Rocky Mountain Locations
TAIT conducted vaulted tank inspections at remote communications facilities on behalf of CenturyLink. These tanks provide fuel for backup power systems at locations critical to CenturyLink’s communications network. Due to the significant terrain, TAIT coordinated air logistics to conduct the mandated inspections.
Various Locations, CA
Standard Pacific, one of the nation’s largest home builders, has developed multi and single-family homes throughout the United States for almost 50 years. TAIT provided critical environmental site assessment services for numerous potential developments throughout California. Services included environmental document review, Phase I Site Assessments and Phase II Site Investigations.
Various Locations
In the past several years, many 7 Eleven convenience stores began offering gas as a service line. TAIT, a vital member of 7 Eleven's new store development team, has provided the complete fuel system installation for a number of locations throughout the states of Texas and California.
TAIT Environmental Services has restored hundreds of Aboveground Storage Tanks across the nation for various clients. This adds years to the life of the tanks, which provide fuel for emergency generators to supply backup power for communications and other systems. This can be done at a fraction of the cost that replacing the tank would cost.
Northern California
TAIT works closely with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) in Northern California to keep their fueling systems up to date, and to make sure they meet all current regulations. We perform UST removals, and AST installations at their facilities. These projects are Design/Build. Our in-house team meets with PG&E staff to determine the needs for each facility, then we use the in-house Engineering Team to design the new systems, we permit the new installation, and then we construct the new Fueling system.
Irvine, CA
A major grocery retailer contracted TAIT to assist in bringing their reverse logistics operations into compliance with California’s complex hazardous waste regulations. TAIT conducts on-going audits of the returned retail products at one of their Southern California Distribution Centers. TAIT’s trained hazardous waste technicians regularly conduct audits of the returned retail products, helping to classify products that are RCRA or California hazardous waste to ensure regulatory compliance.
Various Locations,- US, Virgin Islands, Guam
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulates and oversees all aspects of civil aviation throughout the United States. TAIT installed or upgraded fuel systems that supply backup power for communication and navigation services critical to aviation safety. TAIT has serviced the FAA’s vast network at domestic locations as well as remote sites in American Samoa, the US Virgin Islands, Guam and Alaska.
Brea, California
During remedial excavation activities at the Brea Transfer Station, a deep zone of soil impacted by petroleum hydrocarbons was discovered in the southern part of the site. TAIT subsequently assessed the extent of impacted soils, and utilized large-diameter auger borings to remove the impacted soil from the subsurface. TAIT met the client’s goal to remediate the site for future residential development, achieving site closure from the Orange County Health Care Agency.
