TASTP/TCEQ Q & AOctober 12, 2010Q. 1) Are there any methods of tank release detection for an existing single wall used oil UST other than manual tank gauging and vapor monitoring? That would leave vapor monitoring for a used oil UST greater than 1000 gallons. A. 1) Yes, one can use any method in used oil tanks as it applies. Vapor Monitoring probably will not work in the used oil tank. Q. 2) Do generator AST day tanks that are less than 1100 gallons not have to complete a construction notification form (CNF) or be registered? Do they have to complete a CNF and be registered if they are larger than 1100 gallons? Are all AST generator day tanks excluded from TCEQ regulations? A. 2) They do not have to complete the form and they do not have to be registered. Q. 3) On a tank that is being considered for Temporary Removal from Service and the tank meets (d) Empty system, does that exclude release detection for the tank? Leaving just 334.49 corrosion protection requirements. A. 3) Yes, it does not meet the exclusion and yes, it does leave corrosion. One should check the spill bucket every 60 days even with the temporary removal. Q. 4) Status update on rule package? A. 4) The proposed rules are in public comment period. The rules are in the Texas Register.
