For Pennsylvania data center developers and operators
Johnston Construction Company provides turnkey solutions for data center emergency generator and associated fuel storage system installations. Our design-build team can coordinate initial planning, permitting, equipment installation, construction management and commissioning.
These installations bring together civil, concrete, mechanical and electrical work. We can help coordinate the construction team and applicable regulatory requirements from planning through final installation.
PADEP storage tank requirements
Depending on the tank type and capacity, a data center fuel storage system may be subject to Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) requirements. A Site Specific Installation Permit (SSIP) is required for certain new or modified tank systems, including new aboveground tanks over 21,000 gallons and new facilities where the total aboveground tank capacity exceeds 21,000 gallons. Other regulated tanks may require registration and an operating permit. Applicable requirements should be assessed for each project before construction.
PADEP requires appropriately certified individuals for regulated tank installation and tank handling work. We coordinate the required qualified participants as part of the project delivery team. See PADEP storage tank permitting guidance for current permit criteria.
