Aboveground Petroleum Storage Act (APSA)

The purpose of this program is to protect waters of the state (surface water and groundwater) from exposure to (petroleum-based) oil stored in aboveground storage tanks by confirming compliance, for specified facilities, with the federal Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure rule. This is achieved through routine, periodic, and complaint inspections, surveillance, enforcement, public education, and assistance to industry.
