Re:Notice of Non-Compliance for Underground Storage Tank Violations
Rally Stop #2, located at 924 South Main Street, Cedar City, Utah
Facility Identification No. 6000097
Dear Mr. Jenkins:
The Utah Underground Storage Tank Act (Act) imposes certain obligations on the owner or
operator of a facility having underground storage tanks (USTs). 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 924 South Main Street, Cedar City, Utah. The designated Facility Identification
Number is 6000097.
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:
Submit documentation to show that you have had a qualified cathodic protection
tester test your cathodic protection system within the last three years for the premium
and diesel USTs. Failure to have a cathodic protection test performed within
the last three years may result in re-training for the class B operator.
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.
If you have any questions, please contact Kim Viehweg, the DERR Project Manager, at
[phone].
Sincerely,
Brent H. Everett, Director
Division of Environmental Response and Remediation
