Inspections are the cornerstone of the cost-effective Minotaur
program.
If a Stormceptor unit is not inspected, you don't know when
it needs to be serviced. If it isn't serviced, it may eventually
cease to perform the environmental function for which it
was selected, and you risk a discharge and the subsequent
liabilities involved.
When an unreported incident occurs (i.e. engine oil dumped
in a catch basin; gasoline or diesel fuel tank leak), the
scheduled inspection will alert you to the fact that an
unreported spill has taken place.
Immediate
action will reduce the risk of a discharge and the resulting
costly environmental cleanup costs.
Additionally, inspections can uncover obstructions at the
inlet, as well as any
damage
or irregularities present that will impede the functionality
of the unit.
Scheduled inspections fulfil your obligations in the environmental
section of your site plan/subdivision agreement.
Inspections by qualified Minotaur specialists will both
ensure that your program is cost-effective and reduce your
risk of discharge. Typically, one site inspection every
six months for a minimum of three years will provide the
data necessary to establish a maintenance program based
on need.
Inspections are supported by full
reports
needed for ISO approval, site plan agreements and "sign
offs" for reductions or releases of letters of credit.
