OIL TANK REMOVAL VANCOUVER
Posted on February 2nd, 2008 by Roland Lewis
Many homes in Vancouver were heated by furnace oil particularly prior to natural gas becoming available which started in 1957. The furnace oil was stored in underground tanks initially because above ground tanks were not allowedin Vancouver. Most tanks were located in the back yards of residences with the tank sizes ranging from 300 gals to 1000 gals. As conversions to natural gas took place the oil tanks were commonly left in the ground sometimes havingbeen pumped out of any remaining oil, but not always.
