PRLog -- All oil tank sweeps are not created equal and just because a buyer has a oil tank sweep completed does not mean the site is not contminated with petroleum contaminated soils. Many oil tank sweeps are completed using a 'Wand magnetometer or metal detector that just detects metal. Ground Penetrating Radar used by Environmental Systems can identify non metalic object and disturbances in soil that could indicated a previously removed oil tank. Most metal detectors can only see down to 2 feet below the surface, Ground Penetrating Radar can read soil consitions down to 18 feet. Wand type metal detectors only beep while Ground Penetrating Radar provides a screen image. No oil tank sweep is complete with completing extra cost soil borings that can identify petroleum contamination. It is not on come to have a wand tank sweep that found no tanks completed and 6 months later find out that the basement sump pump is filling with heating oil. This buyer mistake cost over $ 20000 to remediate. Ground Penetrating Radar protects the buyer, as buried non metallic objects on a vacant lot can prevent foundation installation later by being a obstruction. Environmental Systems provides complete Ground Penetrating Radar Tank sweep services and also provides Commercial tank services also including remediation and removal.
