Must all notification forms related to USTs be submitted to the EPA?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only if there is a significant release

  4. Only during inspections

The correct answer is: False

The statement that all notification forms related to USTs must be submitted to the EPA is false. While certain notifications are required to be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), not every notification form is mandated for submission. For instance, notifications regarding the installation or closure of underground storage tanks (USTs) may be required to be submitted, but routine updates or certain operational changes might only need to be reported to local or state regulatory agencies, based on jurisdictional requirements. This intricate system of reporting ensures that while the EPA oversees broad regulatory compliance for hazardous materials, local and state agencies often handle day-to-day operational oversight and notification processes. This reduces redundancy and allows for a more focused approach to environmental protection at the appropriate regulatory level.
