Underground Storage Tank Services

Underground storage tanks (USTs) and the liabilities associated with them have become an increasing concern to commercial and industrial companies. A release from a UST can cause contamination problems for the property owner and create a cleanup responsibility that can run into many thousands of dollars. JMS provides technical and regulatory expertise to assist clients in managing the environmental risks inherent to USTs.  JMS responds to clients' needs while keeping them well-informed of the environmental issues that affect their decisions.
JMS has been providing UST management services for over 20 years.   Our expert staff consistently assists clients in bringing UST projects to closure on schedule and within budget. JMS is certified by the NJDEP in tank closure and subsurface evaluation and maintains the required UST certifications as appropriate.

The regulatory compliance experience of our company ranges from clearing improperly closed tanks to the closure of special hazardous substance tanks.  In New Jersey, the pre-qualified professionals or "Cleanup Stars" can be used on UST investigation and cleanup projects.  The JMS staff of environmental scientists and geologists is certified in their respective fields, and currently includes five Cleanup Star professionals. The JMS staff has experience ranging from single tank projects to large multi-tank closure programs.
