HB4941

OLD UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS

Final Passage·5/21/26

HB4941 amends the Environmental Protection Act to modify eligibility and deductibles for accessing the Underground Storage Tank Fund.

HB4941 amends the Environmental Protection Act to change how owners and operators can access the Underground Storage Tank Fund. Owners and operators can access the fund for costs related to confirmed releases or removal of underground storage tanks installed over 30 years ago. Eligibility requires the owner or operator to not be the United States Government, the tank to not contain exempt fuel, and the costs to not have been covered by insurance or other agreements. Deductibles vary based on when the release was reported and whether the tank was registered before July 28, 1989.
