The Act authorizes the Director of the Division of Environmental Response and Remediation (Division Director) to enforce the Act and rules promulgated thereunder by issuing notices and orders. At the request of the Division Director, the Division of Environmental Response and Remediation (DERR) performed a compliance review for the facility owned or operated by you. This facility contains three USTs and is located at 905 North Main Street, Fillmore, Utah. The designated Facility Identification Number is 2000055. The compliance review indicates you have not satisfied the requirements of the Act and regulations. To achieve compliance, you must do all of the following within 60 days of the date of this letter: 1. Submit documentation to show that you have removed the water/product from the containment sump at the submersible pump/dispenser for USTs 5 and 6. All containment sumps must be kept dry and free of water, product, debris, etc., so they can function properly and protect metallic system components from corrosion. At the time of the inspection, the inspection report indicates that this containment sump had several inches of water/product in it. 2. Submit documentation to show that the facility has class C operators that are properly trained and documented, as required by Section R311-201-12 of the Utah UST rules. Please submit a current list of designated class C operators, showing the date they were trained and the name of the person who provided the training. Facility ID# 2000055 Page 2 3.Submit documentation that an emergency contact sign has been posted with the name and phone number of who to contact in the event of an emergency with the USTs. 4.Submit documentation to show that you have removed the product/debris from the under dispenser containment (UDC) for dispenser 7/8. All UDCs must be properly maintained, and must be kept dry and free of water, product, and debris, so they can function properly. At the time of the inspection, the inspection report indicates that this UDC had product and debris in it. 5.Submit documentation to show that you have repaired or replaced the boot on UDC 1/2, so it can function properly. Additionally, submit documentation that the UDC for Dispenser 1/2 has been tested. At the time of the inspection, the boot on one of the lines was ripped, possibly allowing free product to get to the ground if a leak would happen to occur. The Act, Utah Code Ann. §§ 19-6-407 and 19-6-408, gives the Division Director the authority to assess a civil penalty of $1,000.00 if an owner or operator of an UST fails to register the tank or fails to pay fees within 60 days of due date, and to assess interest on the unpaid registration fee balance. Under Utah Code Ann. § 19-6-425, other violations of the Act, rules, or orders may result in civil penalties of up to $10,000.00 per day. Failure to comply with the Act and regulations may also result in revocation of your certificate of compliance under Utah Code Ann. § 19-6-414. Failure to comply with the requirements of the Act and rules may result in the issuance of a Notice of Violation and Order and/or a Notice of Agency Action and the assessment of a civil penalty. If your facility remains out of compliance with the requirements outlined above, the class A/B operator may be subject to re-training requirements and must successfully complete an appropriate training course and examination.
