2015-07-15; vol. 80 # 135 - Wednesday, July 15, 2015 80 FR 41566 - Revising Underground Storage Tank Regulations—Revisions to Existing Requirements and New Requirements for Secondary Containment and Operator Training
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This rule is effective October 13, 2015. 40 CFR Parts 280 and 281 Summary The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) is making certain revisions to the 1988 underground storage tank (UST) regulation and to the 1988 state program approval (SPA) regulation. These changes establish Federal requirements that are similar to key portions of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct); they also update the 1988 UST and SPA regulations. Changes to the regulations include: Adding secondary containment requirements for new and replaced tanks and piping; adding operator training requirements; adding periodic operation and maintenance requirements for UST systems; addressing UST systems deferred in the 1988 UST regulation; adding new release prevention and detection technologies; updating codes of practice; making editorial corrections and technical amendments; and updating state program approval requirements to incorporate these new changes. EPA thinks these changes will protect human health and the environment by reducing the number of releases to the environment and quickly detecting releases, if they occur.
2012-02-28; vol. 77 # 39 - Tuesday, February 28, 2012 77 FR 11750 - Idaho: Final Approval of State Underground Storage Tank Program
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final determination. Effective Date: Final approval for the State of Idaho shall be effective on February 28, 2012. 40 CFR Part 281 Summary The State of Idaho has applied for final approval of its underground storage tank program for petroleum and hazardous substances under subtitle I of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reviewed the State of Idaho's application and has made a final determination that the State of Idaho's underground storage tank program for petroleum and hazardous substances satisfies all of the requirements necessary to qualify for final approval. Thus, EPA is granting final approval to the State of Idaho to operate its underground storage tank program for petroleum and hazardous substances.
2012-02-15; vol. 77 # 31 - Wednesday, February 15, 2012 77 FR 8757 - Revising Underground Storage Tank Regulations—Revisions to Existing Requirements and New Requirements for Secondary Containment and Operator Training
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Proposed rule; extension of comment period. Comments must be received on or before April 16, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 280 and 281 Summary EPA is extending the public comment period for the proposed changes to the 1988 underground storage tank (UST) technical, financial responsibility, and state program approval regulations published in the Federal Register on November 18, 2011 (76 FR 71708) (FRL-9485-5). These changes establish federal requirements that are similar to key portions of the Energy Policy Act of 2005; they also update certain 1988 UST regulations. Proposed changes include: Adding secondary containment requirements for new and replaced tanks and piping; adding operator training requirements; adding periodic operation and maintenance requirements for UST systems; removing certain deferrals; adding new release prevention and detection technologies; updating codes of practice; making editorial and technical corrections; and updating state program approval requirements to incorporate these new changes. These changes will likely protect human health and the environment by increasing the number of prevented UST releases and quickly detecting them, if they occur. This document extends the comment period for 60 days, from February 16, 2012 until April 16, 2012.
