Major East Coast C-Store Gets the "Green Light" with Approval of Unique Underground Fuel Storage System

Turkey Hill had a problem with their newest C-Store location. Blasts from a nearby Quarry combined with the close proximity to a protected watershed caused enough concern with local officials that they would not allow fiberglass underground tanks on the property. For Turkey Hill the solution was an innovative Liquid Containment Vault (LCV) system. This unique concrete seamless sectional vault offers uncompromising environmental protection to soil and groundwater, resists corrosion and rising water tables and even the sudden trauma of earthquake activity.
