SCS Engineers has performed several thousand tank projects covering virtually every issue faced by tank owners and operators. Storage tank owners are faced with a complex series of federal regulations, state regulations, and industry standards addressing a myriad of issues such as design, registration, construction, operation, integrity testing, inventory control, and monitoring, maintenance and upgrades, spill response, training, closure, and remediation.

SCS’s experience includes underground storage tanks (USTs), above-ground storage tanks (ASTs), process tanks, petroleum tanks, hazardous materials (raw material and product) tanks, wastewater tanks, oil/water separators, fracking tanks, transformers, mobile tanks, temporary tanks, and more. Our petroleum experience includes gasoline (leaded, unleaded, MTBE, ethanol), diesel, heating oil (No. 2, 4 and 6), bunker C, aviation gas, jet fuel, waste oil, crude oil, asphalt, and others.

Sustainable stormwater management involves integrating multiple considerations during the design and build of water resource management solutions. SCS Engineers helps the private and public sectors determine the quantitative and qualitative factors important to achieving sustainable solutions and meeting future water demand forecasts. Quantitative factors such as return on investment and financing are always important. Qualitative factors impact the longer-term value of a solution and have implications for the bottom line. These factors include social elements, such as waterway health; political elements; and environmental factors, such as climate change.

Environmental consciousness is growing, and SCS is increasingly hired for our expertise in developing appropriate self-imposed standards to ensure that the water quality of our clients’ discharges remains beneficial to the downstream natural ecosystem. SCS’s stormwater clients have facilities spanning a large variety of industries, from solid waste to manufacturing to industrial waste. Still, they all have one thing in common: they all appreciate knowing the degree to which they are serving as protectors of the environment by meeting or exceeding water quality standards.

Companies and municipalities worldwide are examining their net-zero commitments and seeking to capture greater value from their investments. SCS Engineers’ climate and sustainability consulting teams include scientists, construction professionals, and engineers with over five decades of specialized expertise that help our public and private clients organize, refine, and implement their plans for better returns. SCS’s long history of solution experience helps you avoid gaps between plans and goals or the overstatement of what can be accomplished, thus protecting your investment.

There is a high interest in organic materials management – composting – anaerobic digestion, which is being driven by emerging state regulations for diversion of organics from disposal facilities. SCS Engineers helps communities evaluate their waste streams and the applicability of established and emerging technologies to their specific communities and circumstances.

SCS Engineers has one of the longest and most successful Biogas practices in the United States primarily in landfill gas to energy (LFGE) and digester gas-to-energy (DGE). Our clients attribute our quality to SCS Energy®, our practice specializing in waste gas utilization; combined with our expertise in solid waste management and compliance. Our experienced engineering and field personnel perform all work, and we have an exemplary safety record. SCS designs, constructs, and operates more LFGE and DGE facilities than any other engineering firm in the nation. Our biogas and biomass experts offer turn-key services for Renewable Natural Gas plants using byproducts from diary, swine, or poultry farms. We offer Anaerobic Digestion plants that turn organic byproducts — such as meat and food scraps, used cooking oil, or spoiled produce — into carbon-negative renewable energy.

SCS Engineers helps clients address the challenges of integrating renewable energy solutions with conventional energy facilities. SCS’s long-established expertise in environmental compliance and renewable energy services means we have the skills and experience to develop strategies combining our clients’ organizational and production goals with our ability to integrate the sustainable technology factors relevant to their business goals.
