Underground storage tanks assessment and cleanup 

The Division of Waste Management received $7.55 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act grant funds from the Environmental Protection Agency to assess and clean up underground storage tank petroleum leaks. The grant will provide funding for assessment and cleanup at approximately 172 “orphan” sites where the responsible party is unable or unwilling to conduct the cleanup. The state’s Underground Storage Tank program will award contracts for the assessment and cleanup operation to as many as four contractors and two laboratory service providers. Two time-limited hydrogeologist positions are included in the grant application to direct and oversee the cleanup contractors and to report on the expenditure of funds and the progress of the work.

These funds are expected to be spent within two years of the date of grant award. However, eligible assessment and cleanup activities may continue beyond two years if funds remain available.
