Section 374-60-010. Authority and purpose.  


Latest version.
  • The purpose of this chapter is to clarify eligibility criteria and requirements for the underground storage tank community assistance program as set forth in chapter 70.148 RCW.
    This chapter recognizes the hardship posed by loss of local sources of petroleum products faced by rural and remote communities, local governments and rural hospitals due to an inability to meet U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and department of ecology regulations and requirements for petroleum underground storage tanks. The underground storage tank community assistance program will award grants to qualifying privately owned and operated sources of petroleum products, local government entities, and rural hospitals meeting vital government, public health, education, recreation, or safety needs for replacement or upgrading and, if required, clean up of underground petroleum storage tank sites.
