ELATION: It Underground tank owners protesting Underground storage tank owners are angry. Recent EPA and state regulations have put most of them in impossible positions. Some are looking at clean up requirements that could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Some service station owners say they will close down rather than comply with regulations. But that wont help either. They will still be liable for the cleanup and may face fines of thousands of dollars. In order to comply with regulations and qualify to receive petroleum products, tank owners must register their underground storage tanks, pay fees, conduct and provide the results of a tank and line tightness test on each tank, write a statement about any known releases from the tanks, and document that they have met financial insurance requirements. The easiest of those requirements, the tank testing is expensive, and difficult for small service station owners to comply with. A tank test can cost from $375 to $1200. It must be done by a certified tester. Some companies have installed a computerized testing system in their tanks. That can cost around $25,000. It is possible at lest until June, to keep a daily record of tank levels and sales and deliveries to check for leaks. But most service stations have a problem satisfying state requirements. If there are any signs of leakage, soil testing must be done to check for contamination. At least two samples must be taken at each tank site, and a sample for every 50 feet of line, as well as one at the pump. Each sample costs $130. Operators must also pay to have a state inspector monitor the process. The station owner is responsible to cleanup the contaminated soil. Over a period of time this can spread for hundreds of feet. Some cleanup processes have cost in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Removal of underground tanks can cost around $3,000 if there is no contamination. By law, tanks are to be upgraded on an age schedule. Oldest tanks are to be brought into compliance or upgraded. Tank owners who fail to do so are subject to a $10,000 fine. Residential or farm tanks under 11,000 gallons dont come under the regulations. But if the tanks were ever used in a business such as for filling trucks on construction equipment, they are subject to the regulations. If tanks were abandoned before 1974 they arent subject to the same requirement. However, owners still have to show the state the tanks contain no vapors or sludge, and that there is no soil contamination. If soil is contaminated, it has to be removed and treated or replaced Continued on Page 2 |
