Chemical Storage Safety in Schools Matters
Proper chemical storage isn’t just about organization—it’s about protecting students, staff, and the environment. Sand County Environmental offers help with making sure these requirements for safety are met.
Here are a few key reminders:
✔️ Store chemicals by compatibility, not alphabetically
✔️ Clearly label all containers with contents and hazard information
✔️ Keep flammable and corrosive materials in appropriate safety cabinets
✔️ Ensure proper ventilation in storage areas
✔️ Regularly check for expired or degraded chemicals
A safe lab and school starts with smart storage practices. Taking a few extra steps today can prevent accidents tomorrow.
💧 What is a Tank System Site Assessment?💧
A Tank System Site Assessment (TSSA) evaluates tanks and surrounding areas to determine if leaks or releases have impacted soil or groundwater.
The assessment typically includes:
- Reviewing tank design and maintenance history
- Inspecting tanks, piping, and containment areas
- Collecting soil or groundwater samples if needed
- Meeting state reporting requirements
These assessments are often required when tank systems are upgraded, replaced, or closed and help ensure environmental protection and regulatory compliance. TSSA can apply to underground and aboveground storage tanks (UST and AST) for heating oil, fuel, and other hazardous substances.
Our team currently has four qualified personnel available to perform Tank System Site Assessments.
