UST FAQ 7

Why do so many different agencies/departments inspect my facility?     

Each inspector that visits your facility is there to enforce a specific set of laws and regulations. Environmental Health (CUPA) inspectors visit your facility to protect the groundwater by making sure the underground tanks are being monitored and managed properly. Although the inspectors from different agencies might review some of the same equipment and documents, they are inspecting these items for different reasons.

Be aware that an inspector from one agency may refer what they believe is a serious issue or condition to another agency that has jurisdiction over that area.
