  • Prepped the immediate areas outside the tank with plastic and elevated the staging cell for containment drums in order to centralize the work area and help prevent cross contamination of non impacted areas within the facility.
  • Application of approved caustic cleaner to neutralize interior surfaces of the tank to a pH of 7.
