Underground Storage Tanks (USTs)

Federal Facilities Reports About Underground Storage Tank Compliance - 2005 Energy Policy Act

Background and Requirements

Title XV, Section B of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 amends Subtitle I of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, the original legislation that created the underground storage tank (UST) program. The UST provisions of the Energy Policy Act focus on preventing releases and direct EPA to help states comply with new UST requirements.

Section 1528 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 requires a compliance report from each federal agency that owns or operates one or more underground storage tanks, or manages land on which one or more underground storage tanks are located. A copy of the report was sent to both Congress and EPA's Administrator on August 8, 2006.

Compliance Reports

Listed below are links to reports from 24 federal agencies regarding the compliance status of underground storage tanks owned or operated by federal agencies or located on land managed by federal agencies. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 required this one-time reporting by federal agencies to Congress and EPA's Administrator by August 8, 2006. Please note that the information reported is a snapshot in time; information was current as of the date federal agencies submitted their reports. A facility's compliance status may have changed since the report was submitted to EPA.
