The property owner said he never used that tank and it was there when he bought it, so he or she is not paying for any testing or removal?
A13.Just because the current owner made a bad decision doesn’t’t mean you should. Depending on the state where the property is located, there maybe a construction code requiring a tank that is out of service for longer than a year to be removed or properly abandoned, this could help budge the owner to do the right thing and address the tank issue.
