Secondary containment systems are essential for preventing leaks and spills from contaminating the surrounding environment. Begin by evaluating the type and volume of the material to be contained, as this will determine the size and material of your containment system. Choose a location that's accessible for inspections and maintenance, yet far from drainage paths to avoid potential environmental contamination.
Once you've selected the system that meets your needs, prepare the site by ensuring it's level and free of debris. Install the containment system as per the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring that all joints and seams are sealed properly to prevent leaks. Regularly inspect the system for wear and damage, and maintain it appropriately to ensure its effectiveness and longevity.
