A double containment and leak detection apparatus including a tank, having a bottom and a surrounding shell, with a con- tainment baffle means above the bottom and a leak detection means in a containment space between the containment baffle means and the tank bottom. The containment baffle means includes a baffle plate sealingly joined to the interior of the shell to form a sealed containment space between the containment baffle and the bottom. The leak detection means is installed in the con- tainment space to detect the presence of stored material held in the tank in the event such material leaks into the containment space. The leak detection means is connected, through a leak-proof access, to means external to the tank for responding to such leaks of stored material so detected inside the containment space. The invention further includes a primary containment means, made of liner material, located inside the tank above the containment baffle means and within the shell, capable of containing such stored material. The invention further provides a method for converting existing tanks to incorporate the double contain- ment and leak detection apparatus of the present invention into existing facilities.
