  1. Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau May 2002 presentation Introduction to Regulation of Underground and Above Ground Storage Tank Systems

  2. Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau Our Mission is to reduce, mitigate and eliminate the threats to the environment posed by petroleum products or hazardous material or wastes released from petroleum storage tanks. Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau

  3. Currently regulated by: Federal (US EPA 40 CFR) Underground Storage Tank Program State (NMED 20NMAC5) Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau Currently regulated by: Federal (US EPA) currently no one Federal Regulatory Program Governing ASTs is active. HOWEVER, there are existing statutes & regulations that apply directly or indirectly to ASTs. So Federal Reg’s are in the works from US EPA just like the… State (NMED) Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau, currently in progress of being created........ Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau Underground Storage Tank (UST) Aboveground Storage Tank (AST)

  4. Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau • Hazardous Waste Act, NMSA 1978 • Ground Water Protection Act, amended, NMSA 1979 • Environmental Improvement Act, NMSA 1979 • Senate Bill 333, Legislative Session, 2001 NMED REGULATORY BACKGROUND

  5. Petroleum Storage Tank Bureau • Are being generated with the assistance from the following: • Several states with existing regulations governing ASTs • State NMED PST Bureau Inspector’s experience • Industry Standards and Codes • Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) • National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) • Steel Tank Institute (STI) • others Aboveground Storage Tank Regulations
