The presence of an underground storage tank (UST), whether in use or out of service, could mean that your facility is subject to additional regulations. It’s possible that you have an underground storage tank, but are not aware of it. If you have items resembling those depicted to the left, you will need to examine them further to determine if you do have a UST.
If “NO”, skip question 1a.
Note: Underground storage tanks storing fuel for heating are exempt.
If you have a UST(s) that has not been registered with IDEM, you will need to submit an RTC plan form. To be in compliance, you will need to contact IDEM’s Office of Land Quality - Underground Storage Tank Section toll free at (800) 451-6027 ext. 234-4112 to register or close your tank.
