Understanding Pennsylvania's Underground Storage Tank Regulations; A Guidance Document for Storage Tank Owners and Operators

Abstract

Tiis capstone project is a proactive approach to addressing a problem observed in many underground storage tank facilities; owners and operator failure to understand the Pennsylvania state regulations. Tie Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) enacted the Storage Tank and Spill Prevention Act in

• 1989. Now, twenty years later, government regulators are still struggling to achieve a high rate of compliance at

storage tank facilities. Most of the non-compliant storage tank facilities in question are gas stations. Some of the factors contributing to the non-compliance are: limited understanding of the English language; complexity of the regulations; constant evolution of the regulations; and the ignorance of responsibility and

• consequences. In many cases, these impediments lead to an apathetic atuitude toward the requirements. I have

created a plain-language guidance document that explains storage tank systems and key regulations. My goal is to have the document published by the PA DEP so that it may be handed out to the regulated community. Over the next few years, Pennsylvania will be implementing a federally mandated operator training. Tiis document would be a great complement to the training goals of the federal and state government agencies. In addition, achieving compliance at underground storage tank facilities is of great importance for protecting our groundwater supplies. Pennsylvania has had over 14,000 releases of regulated substances from storage tanks since 1989. Groundwater is an extremely valuable resource for drinking water purposes as well as for the natural environment. My document will assist storage take owners and operators in understanding the regulations, which will lead to a greater level of compliance with the regulations, and fewer release incidents.

1 CHAPTER ONE Introduction Statement of the Problem In my four years working in the storage tanks program at the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP), I have noticed a great need for clear, simple interpretation

• f regulations. Storage tank regulations can be confusing and foreign to the regulated

community, which leads to an apathetic attitude. Many times these people ignore the regulations until an enforcement action is issued. A laymen’s terms guidance document that covers all of the major requirements, as well as direction on what to do in case of an emergency, would be an important resource for storage tank owners and operators. A better understanding of their regulatory requirements would lead to a higher rate of compliance. Purpose of the Study I took a proactive approach to improving the regulatory compliance of Pennsylvania storage tank facilities by developing a guidance document specifically for underground storage tank owners and operators. The goal of this document is to improve compliance with the state storage tank regulations by simplifying the requirements and educating the regulated community. Need for Research Operator training is a relatively new compliance tactic for state storage tank regulators. Pennsylvania is currently in the process of developing an operator training program for storage tank operators. My guidance document would complement this program by serving as a reliable reference document for the regulated community.

2 Hypothesis Hypothesis: The document that I produce will improve gas station owner and operator compliance with the state environmental regulations. Research Questions The research questions being investigated are:

• 1. How can regulations be interpreted in a way that is easy for a layperson to

understand while still upholding legal caveats?

• 2. What are the most important sections of the storage tank regulations for operators

to understand?

• 3. What about the regulations is hindering operator understanding?
• 4. How can impediments to understanding the regulations be overcome?
• 5. Is understanding the regulations enough to facilitate compliance?
• 6. What is the benefit of having a guidance document of this type available?

Definition of Terms Storage Tank Regulations This term refers to 25 Pa. Code Chapter 245, Administration of the Pennsylvania Storage Tank and Spill Prevention Act. These are the Pennsylvania regulations that apply to regulated aboveground and underground storage tanks. Storage Tank Operator The storage tank operator (“operator”) is the person who is responsible for the use and maintenance of the storage tank system.

3 Storage Tank Owner The storage tank owner (“owner”) refers to the property owner for the property containing regulated storage tanks. This can be the same person as the operator, but does not have to be. Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) (“Department”) is the regulatory agency responsible for the enforcement of the Pennsylvania storage tank regulations. Regulated Storage Tanks Storage tanks which are subject to the regulations found in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 245. The majority of these tanks are located at gas stations. CHAPTER TWO Literature Review Storage Tank Regulation History On August 5, 1989, the State of Pennsylvania enacted the Storage Tanks and Spill Prevention Act, which established specific regulatory requirements for owners and operators of underground and aboveground storage tanks. (Pennsylvania code) A large majority of the facilities that have underground storage tanks covered by these regulations are gas stations. Although the total number of active storage tanks in Pennsylvania has been reduced from 90,321 in 1991 to 24,162 in 2009, there have been 14,766 confirmed releases of regulated substances from storage tanks since 1989. (US EPA, 2009) Pennsylvania currently has a backlog of 3,207

• pen releases that are still in the process of remediation. (US EPA, 2009) The impact of these

releases is mostly to groundwater. (Frye, 2008)

4 Groundwater A September 2008 LUSTline article states that groundwater is extremely important to human survival, not just for drinking, but for many other integral parts of our economy including energy and fuel production. However, groundwater has not gotten the attention and the respect that it deserves from the public. (Frye, 2008) In addition, it is widely accepted that contaminated groundwater sources are very difficult and expensive to replace. (Ground Water Protection Council, 2007) The Groundwater Protection Council, among other reputable sources, believes that underground storage tanks are a major contributor to groundwater contamination. The Council also recognizes that, while the federal and state regulations have become more stringent since the inception of the regulations, in order to protect groundwater resources, these regulations must be strictly enforced. (Ground Water Protection Council, 2007) Don Carr, spokesman for the Environmental Working Group stated in a recent USA Today article, “You can't put a price on the availability of clean, fresh sources of drinking water.” (Schweers, 2009) Impediments to Compliance A number of issues are preventing 100% compliance with the Pennsylvania storage tank

• regulations. A prime source of non-compliance is a disconnection between the regulations and

the operator of the storage tanks. Many times the root of this problem is due to the complexity of regulatory writing. This problem can be magnified when, as often happens, the operator is uneducated and/or foreign to the English language. In addition, many owners and operators are ignorant of their respective obligations and they fail to take responsibility for their property. The

• wner may assume that the requirements are solely for the operator, and the operator may

assume the owner is the only responsible party. Owners and operators also seem to be unaware

5

• f the consequences of failing to properly maintain their storage tank systems and non-

compliance with the regulations. This ties back into the issue of uneducated owners and

• perators. They may not realize that a release from their storage tank could result in a sizeable

financial obligation, as well as negative impacts to nearby residents’ drinking water. (Dee, 2009) An August 26, 2009, USA Today article focuses on the difficulties gas station owners are having with keeping up with the environmental requirements for their storage tanks, both economically and in dealing with the constant evolution of regulations. In the article, James Patneau Jr., owner

• f four independent gas stations in Ohio, says, “The bottom line is there is a progression that the

rules never get easier, they only get tougher.” He says regarding the regulations, “It is tough dealing with the federal and state government.” (Schweers, 2009) The issue of untrained storage tank owners and operators has been acknowledged by both federal and state government regulators all over the country. While it would be ideal if the government environmental agencies could make sure that each facility fully understands all of its regulatory obligations prior to operating their tanks, there is not nearly enough staffing in the agencies to complete this

• task. Marcel Moreau, a noted expert in the field of storage tanks says, “Today’s storage systems

are...complex and sophisticated (for reasons that are economic as well as environmental), as are the regulations governing them. Yet we still expect that people off the street will be able to successfully operate these systems. Is it any wonder that they so often fail?” (Moreau, 2002) Operator Training The state government of Oregon responded to this issue by instituting an operator training program in 2003. (England, 2008) Now that the program has been in place for a few years, critics are saying that while the training has not been a silver bullet for compliance, the

• perators are proving to be more knowledgeable, and compliance rates have gone up and

6 continue to do so. (England, 2008) The Federal Energy Policy Act of 2005 requires all states to begin an operator training program by August 8, 2009. (Hazardous Waste Consultant, 2006) Pennsylvania has developed an operator training program that requires all storage tank facilities to have DEP-certified class A, B, and C operators for their facility no later than August 8, 2012. (Environmental Quality Board, 2009) The Class A operator assists the owner and operator in maintenance and compliance. The Class A operator will typically be a DEP-certified tank handling company hired by the owner. The Class B operator oversees day-to-day operations, maintenance, and compliance. This person may be overseeing several facilities at the same time. The Class C operator is the person who is at the facility daily. This is the person physically performing the release detection, checking equipment, and responding to emergencies. (Environmental Quality Board, 2009) Summary At least some, if not all, storage tank owners and operators may require additional assistance with understanding the state storage tank regulations. The current lack of understanding is resultant of several issues, including ignorance of the requirements and consequences, language barriers, and lack of education. My guidance document is intended to aid the Class B and C operators. It will serve as a reference document for operators who do not have experience in operating underground storage tank systems. In addition, it will give new

• perators a baseline from which to work. It will be especially useful for facilities that have a

high turnover rate for their Class C operators. These people will have a very difficult time keeping up with the required operator training. This document will be a reliable source of easily understood information for any operator. The success of this guidance document will protect storage tank owner and operators from costly clean-ups and penalties as well as lighten the

7

• verwhelming workload of the understaffed PA DEP. Hopefully, attaining a higher rate of

compliance with the regulations will decrease the number of future releases from storage tanks into the environment. CHAPTER THREE Research Design & Methodology Proposed Evaluation Design My capstone project is a plain-language guidance document for storage tank operators. The document will be a manual for complying with the applicable Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) regulations. The document is written mainly for gas station

• wners and operators. The following topic headings are included in the document: My Tank

System; Identifying Storage Tank System Components; Registration; Corrosion Protection; Tank Release Detection; Piping Release Detection; Spill and Overfill Prevention; Facility Operations Inspections; Operator Training Requirements; Releases; Other Applicable DEP Regulations (air and waste); Testing Schedule Summary; Frequently Asked Questions; and Forms. I explained the regulations while trying to keep the information brief and easy to read so that the document does not become overwhelming for the reader. My goal is for this guidance document to be published by PA DEP and handed out to the regulated community. It is of utmost importance that this document is easy to use and understand. Otherwise, it will not achieve the intended purpose. Methods I used the Pennsylvania storage tank regulations along with current guidance documents both produced by the federal and several different state governments as resources to produce the

• document. I had DEP-certified tank inspectors and state regulators to review my document and

8 provide me with feedback regarding the information I chose to include and the clarity of my

• interpretations. These opinions confirmed that the document is easily understood and that I have

not overlooked any important regulations. I have a validity concern with the completeness and accuracy of my regulatory interpretations, due to the fact that I am trying to have it published by a government agency. This will be addressed by the storage tank program managers in PA DEP’s central office and the PA DEP policy office reviewing the document prior to publishing. Quantitative Analysis Time did not permit a pre-test/post-test to test my hypothesis. CHAPTER FOUR Results Discussion I expect that PA DEP will publish the document that I create. It will then be handed out to storage tank owners and operators by PA DEP storage tank program staff in all regions of

• Pennsylvania. I expect that owners and operators who use my guidance document will gain a

more complete understanding of their regulatory requirements. A better understanding of the regulations will improve facility compliance with the regulations. Conclusion I wrote a plain-language guidance document which explains underground storage tank systems and the Pennsylvania underground storage tank regulations. Research has shown that lack of understanding of the regulations is a major impediment of compliance for storage tank

• wners and operators. If PA DEP publishes my document, it will be an excellent tool for

government regulators to provide to storage tank owners and operators. It will also complement the new operator-training program in Pennsylvania, which will be fully phased in by 2012. My

9 guidance document explains the regulations in an easily understandable way and therefore promotes facility compliance. The compliant facilities will also be less likely to experience an incident where regulated substance is released into the environment including groundwater.
