Soil protection in tank pits according to PGS 29 and BB-cvm
We are regularly asked to inspect the soil protection facilities of tank pits and above-ground storage tanks. Our specialists check whether tank wells comply with the set standards as described in PGS 29 and the Bb-cvm directive.
An inspection gives you insight into the condition of the soil protection facilities and you know whether they comply with the applicable guidelines and requirements.
Our approach
Our inspectors assess the soil protection facilities on the basis of the applicable guidelines and standards. This can be done using our own inspection method or a company-specific method. After the inspection, you will receive an insight into the condition of the facilities and we will think along with you and clearly indicate which follow-up steps are possible.
