Federal Regulations 40 CFR 280.21, and most state regulations require that 10 year and older Underground Storage tanks (USTs) be internally inspected, or assessed for corrosion holes prior to the addition of cathodic protection. These regulations have prompted industry to develop alternate techniques for assessing USTs. One of these assessment techniques utilizes specifically designed video and lighting assemblies which can be inserted into the USTs via the fill pipe riser, thus eliminating the need for any excavation or other construction activities.
