Featured Case Study

Tank Removal – O’Hare Super Satellite Tank Farm
RW Collins Co. was contracted to perform decommissioning and removal of (18) 50,000-gallon Jet A fuel underground storage tanks at O'Hare International Airport. These massive tanks were located in between taxiways near the International Terminal at O'Hare and provided a number of logistical challenges. In addition to the underground tank removal scope, RWC performed excavation of almost 50,000 tons of contaminated soil and final grading and restoration for the previous tank farm and support areas. This tank farm was the largest tank removal by volume in Illinois history.
