| Short Description |
The Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) needs to modify its underground storage tank (UST) compliance inspection program because of new federal legislation. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 places new requirements on the EPA and states to help prevent or reduce the possibility of leaks to the environment from UST systems (tanks, pipes, and dispensers). Leaks can and do pollute groundwater, a precious resource which supplies drinking water for 60 percent of Washingtonians. | |
