Petroleum-contaminatedsoil removal
Fuel and oil releases from tanks, lines, vehicles and equipment soak into soil. Getting it out properly means sampling, digging the right amount and documenting disposal.
DOSH
Fuel inthe ground
Petroleum contamination usually traces back to leaking underground or above-ground tanks, broken fuel lines, equipment and vehicle leaks, or spills during fueling and transfer. Gasoline, diesel and heating oil move down and outward through soil, and the visible stain at the surface rarely shows how far it actually went.
Alliance samples to map the release, excavates the impacted soil, and hauls it under manifest to an approved facility, then confirms with sampling that what's left meets cleanup standards.
Tank & line releases
Soil around leaking underground and above-ground tanks and piping.
Spills
Fueling, transfer and equipment spills at yards, shops and job sites.
Legacy sites
Former fueling, shop and industrial sites found during a sale or redevelopment.
From stain toclean soil
Sample
Map the depth and spread of the release.
Plan
Size the excavation and arrange disposal.
Excavate
Remove impacted soil with dust and vapor control.
Dispose
Characterize, manifest and transport to an approved facility.
Confirm & restore
Confirmation sampling, clean backfill and regrade.
Petroleum-Contaminated SoilFAQ
How do I know if soil is petroleum-contaminated?
Odor, staining or a known release are clues, but sampling and lab analysis are the only way to know the type and extent of contamination.
Does all the stained soil have to go?
Excavation is sized by sampling results and cleanup standards, not just visible staining. That keeps the dig and disposal costs right-sized.
Can you remove the tank too?
Yes. Alliance cleans and removes tanks and remediates the surrounding soil.
Where does the soil go?
It's characterized, manifested and hauled to an approved disposal or treatment facility, and you get the records.
