Caring for Alaska, Season After Season
How We Care for Alaska at Work and at Home
At Delta Western, protecting Alaska isn’t tied to a date on the calendar. Providing high-quality fuel and helping protect the land we share go hand in hand, all year long.
Summer is also the season to get ahead of winter. With long days and dry ground, now is the ideal window for tank inspections and service — before the fall rush. Here are a few ways we put those principles into practice, and how you can do the same.
Maintaining Your Tank
For customers, one of the most important ways to support safe, responsible fuel use is through regular tank maintenance. We recommend conducting periodic inspections to:
Check for signs of wear or leaks.
Keep the surrounding area clear of debris.
If you notice an unusual odor or anything out of the ordinary, it warrants a professional assessment.
Routine upkeep helps keep your system operating reliably while reducing risk to your property and the area around it. For more guidance, our blog offers a quick refresher on fuel tank safety.
Keeping Our Beautiful Landscape Clean
Protecting Alaska’s natural resources starts with safe, well-managed operations. At Delta Western, we strictly adhere to EPA, ADEC, OSHA, and DOT requirements, maintain oil spill contingency plans at all of our facilities, and partner with regional spill response organizations including SEAPRO in Southeast Alaska and Chadux in Western Alaska.
That same focus on safety guides our day-to-day work. Through our Alaska-specific SAVE program, we work to reduce risk, avoid cross-contamination, and ensure fuel stays where it belongs.
A Promise to Alaska
Our standards don’t shift with the seasons. Last year, Delta Western recorded zero safety reportable incidents, a milestone that reflects the training and accountability we bring to every part of our operation. We are proud of that progress and remain focused on protecting the places we call home.
