Spills and leaks from storage tanks containing petroleum products can cause
considerable environmental damage. If petroleum gets into ground water,
that water can become unusable for drinking or stock watering. Just one
gallon of a petroleum product can pollute one million gallons of water. Even
ground water not used to supply drinking water is of concern. Petroleum
products can be carried by the ground water and may impact subsurface utilities
or basements.
To help prevent future contamination, DTE is committed to the design, operation,
and maintenance of aboveground and underground storage tanks that comply with
legislative and regulatory requirements, and safeguard health, ensure safety and
protect the environment.
All of our tanks meet or exceed the
specifications of the Underwriter's
Laboratory of Canada (ULC) and carry the ULC
label. This will help to ensure that the DTE tank system you purchase has
the DTE Industries seal of approval and meets the following requirements:
- The system has structural integrity of design and materials
- The system is exceeds ULC standards
- That our manufacturing process follows a given level of testing and
quality control to insure that each system produced exceeds ULC standards.
