CERC Oil Tank Removal Discusses Homeowner Liability In Oil Tank Removal

(Newswire.net — May 29, 2015) North Vancouver, BC –Many Vancouver homeowners choose to remove their old oil tanks due to concerns over the environment. However, as Fabio Chesia from Vancouver-based CERC Oil Tank Removal points out, it is also important to consider possible legal liability when making a decision to remove an underground oil tank.

“Failure to consider government guidelines and regulations when removing an old oil tank can result in expense, delay and even legal liability,” says Chesia, a veteran of many years of oil tank removals in the Vancouver area. “All areas of Vancouver require permits, but not every area requires the same paperwork. In fact, the bylaws for every area are different, so it is very important to know where to pull the permits and what is required for each section of the city to avoid legal issues.”

Homeowners who fail to meet all bylaws and standards can face fines and even a lawsuit. “One homeowner sued a former owner of the property for $160,000 in damages after he found the ground was contaminated with oil,” says Chesia.
