Comments:
Please be advised that tank tightness testing was performed on the Greystone 10,000 gallon
underground fuel storage tank (US1) on Monday, March 3, 2003 by the Ira D. Conklin Co. As per our
telephone conversation of that date, our office was informed by Conklin that the tank failed the test. As
required by law, the Contractor reported this test failure to the NYS Department of Environmental
Conservation, who enter the information in their .spill" registry.
The Contractor noted that the leak was above the liquid level in the tank, and could be the result of
leaking plumbing connections rather than a leak in the tank itself. He suggested that the best way to
deal with the situation is to dig up the tank, disconnect all plumbing connections Oe: fill lines, vents,
manways) and perform another tightness testing. The cost to perform this additional testing would be
$ 2,050.00 (see enclosed Proposal). While they have not provided our office with a written estimate to
replace the tank completely, the representative from Ira D. Conklin stated that it could easily be in the
range of $ 50,000 to $ 70,000. Please keep in mind that this tank was reputedly installed in 1959.
I have been in contact with Ms. Barbara Yukoweic of the NYSDEC, and have advised her of all actions
taken to date. I have also informed her that we would be presenting all this information to the Town
Board to determine how you would like us to proceed in the matter.
Thank you.
Please feel free to contact this office if you have any questions or comments regarding this matter.
