Environmental Containment Applications
Secondary Spill Containment — EPA RCRA & SPCC Compliance
Federal regulations require secondary containment for facilities that store petroleum products, hazardous chemicals, and other regulated substances. Under the EPA's Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rule (40 CFR Part 112) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), facilities must maintain secondary containment systems capable of holding the full volume of the largest container in a storage area, plus freeboard for precipitation.
Husky secondary containment berms are a proven portable solution for meeting these requirements. Available as drive-over berms, L-bracket berms, foam wall berms, and self-rising containment pools, Husky's berm lineup accommodates generators, fuel tanks, transformers, heavy equipment, and vehicles of virtually any footprint. Unlike permanent concrete or earthen berms, Husky portable berms can be repositioned as facility layouts change, stored when not in use, and deployed in minutes at temporary or remote job sites.
Fuel Spill Containment for Vehicles & Equipment
Mobile equipment fueling is one of the most common sources of hydrocarbon contamination at industrial, construction, and oilfield sites. Husky drive-over spill containment berms provide an instantly deployable secondary containment zone for refueling operations — the equipment drives in, refueling is completed, and any spill or drip is captured rather than reaching soil or stormwater drainage.
These berms are widely used by oilfield operators, construction contractors, mining operations, military logistics teams, and fleet maintenance facilities. They are compatible with single vehicles and large equipment alike, including tanker trucks, excavators, generators, and drilling rigs.
Industrial Wastewater & Washdown Containment
Equipment washdowns, vehicle decontamination, and industrial cleaning operations generate contaminated wastewater that cannot be allowed to enter stormwater systems or ground. Husky washdown containment berms and portable wash bays provide a contained collection area for wash water, allowing it to be pumped out and disposed of in compliance with local discharge regulations.
Common applications include military vehicle decontamination, emergency response equipment cleaning, aircraft maintenance, mining equipment washdowns, and municipal vehicle maintenance facilities.
Oilfield & Frac Operations — Portable Liquid Storage
Husky flexible frac tanks and large-capacity bladder tanks are used extensively in oil and gas production for temporary storage of produced water, brine, completion fluids, and other oilfield liquids. Compared to steel frac tanks, Husky flexible tanks are lighter, more compact in transport, faster to deploy, and significantly less expensive — making them the preferred choice for remote pad sites and short-duration operations.
Bladder tanks range from 25 gallons to 25,000 gallons and can be fabricated for compatibility with petroleum products, chemicals, and potable water depending on the liner material specified.
Chemical & Hazardous Material Storage
Husky chemical storage bladder tanks provide flexible, portable containment for recovered chemicals, wastewater, and industrial byproducts. These tanks are used in remediation projects, chemical processing facilities, and emergency response staging areas where rigid storage infrastructure is unavailable or impractical. Custom liner materials are available for compatibility with a wide range of chemicals — contact Husky for compatibility guidance on specific substances.
Spill Dikes & Drain Protection
Not all spill containment situations call for a full berm setup. Husky's portable spill dikes and drain seals are rapid-deploy tools for isolating a spill, protecting storm drains from contamination, and redirecting liquid flow away from sensitive areas. These products are essential components of any facility's spill response kit and are widely used by environmental response teams, industrial facilities, and municipalities.
Decontamination Systems
Husky decontamination pools and shower systems support personnel and equipment decontamination in hazmat response, industrial hygiene, and emergency management contexts. These portable systems provide a contained collection area for contaminated rinse water and can be set up quickly at incident scenes or temporary work sites, ensuring decontamination runoff is captured rather than released to the environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is secondary containment and when is it required?
Secondary containment is a containment system designed to capture liquid in the event of a spill or leak from a primary storage container. It is required by the EPA under the SPCC rule (40 CFR Part 112) for facilities that store oils or petroleum products above certain threshold quantities, and under RCRA regulations for facilities handling hazardous waste. Many states have additional secondary containment requirements that go beyond federal minimums. Husky portable berms and containment pools are widely used to satisfy both federal and state secondary containment requirements.
How much liquid does a secondary containment berm need to hold?
Under EPA SPCC rules, secondary containment must be capable of holding the volume of the largest single container in the containment area, plus additional capacity to account for precipitation in open-air systems. For most applications, this means the containment volume must equal or exceed 110% of the largest container's capacity. Husky offers berms in a wide range of sizes — contact us to help size a berm for your specific storage configuration.
What is the difference between a spill containment berm and a spill dike?
A spill containment berm completely surrounds a storage area or piece of equipment, creating a contained "pool" to capture any spill or leak. A spill dike is a directional barrier used to redirect the flow of a liquid spill away from drains, waterways, or sensitive areas. Husky manufactures both, as well as drain seals for immediate storm drain protection.
Can Husky containment berms be used for vehicles and heavy equipment?
Yes. Husky drive-over berms are specifically designed for vehicle and equipment containment. They feature low-profile entry and exit ramps that allow vehicles to drive into the berm without damage to the berm walls or vehicle undercarriage. They are rated for use with trucks, tankers, forklifts, and heavy equipment. Custom sizes are available for oversized footprints.
Are Husky bladder tanks compatible with fuel and chemicals?
Husky bladder tanks are available with different liner materials depending on the substance being stored. Standard liners are suitable for water and non-reactive liquids. Fuel-rated liners are available for diesel, gasoline, and petroleum products. Chemical-compatible liners are available for a range of industrial chemicals — compatibility depends on the specific substance. Contact Husky's team with your chemical compatibility requirements before ordering.
Do Husky containment products meet EPA standards?
Husky portable containment berms and spill containment products are engineered to support compliance with EPA SPCC (40 CFR Part 112) and RCRA secondary containment requirements. However, compliance determinations are facility-specific and depend on factors including container size, substance type, and site conditions. We recommend working with your environmental compliance team or a qualified PE to confirm that a specific Husky product meets your facility's regulatory requirements.
Can Husky products be used for temporary job sites?
Absolutely — temporary and remote deployment is one of the core advantages of Husky portable containment. Products are designed to set up quickly without tools or heavy equipment, store compactly for transport, and be repositioned or removed when operations are complete. This makes them ideal for construction sites, pipeline work, remote oilfield pads, military operations, and disaster response.
Does Husky offer custom containment sizes?
Yes. Husky's in-house fabrication team can produce custom berms, bladder tanks, and containment pools in non-standard sizes and configurations. Custom orders are common for oversized equipment footprints, unusual site geometries, and specialized chemical compatibility requirements.
