Re: Subsurface Investigation Reporting and Requirements
Manning Short Stop Texaco, located at 3878 West Highway 13, Corinne, Utah
Facility Identification No. 0100520, Release Site OLD
Dear Mr. Manning:
A release of petroleum from an aboveground petroleum storage tank at the above-referenced
site was reported on July 29, 2024, to the Division of Environmental Response and Remediation
(DERR) based on laboratory results of samples collected during a subsurface assessment. According
to Utah Senate Bill 40 (2021), you are required to report, control, abate, and characterize the release
by defining the extent and degree of petroleum contamination and remediate (clean up) the release.
This law requires that you address the release and submit necessary reports to the DERR within
specified time frames following the release.

Your project manager has reviewed the release report information and recommended that
additional investigation work be required. The project manager relied on the information provided
and did not conduct an independent investigation of the facility. The investigation's intent is to
define the extent and degree of subsurface petroleum contamination and evaluate the potential risks
to human health and the environment. A Subsurface Investigation Report (SIR) outlining the results
of the investigation must be submitted to the DERR within 90 days of your receipt of this letter.
Requirements for an SIR are detailed in the Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST)
Subsurface Investigation Report Guide (May 2014), which can be found on our website:
https://documents.deq.utah.gov/environmental-response-and-remediation/ust-lust/leaking-undergr
ound-storage-tanks-remedial-assistance/lust-subsurface-investigation-report-guide.pdf.

If you hire a consultant to perform work related to this release, they must be a Certified
Underground Storage Tank (UST) Consultant (Utah Admin. Code R311-201-2).
Facility ID# 0100520

Upon submitting your SIR, the investigation results will be evaluated to determine if no
further action (closeout) is needed or if additional work is necessary. This additional work may
consist of performing additional investigation activities, conducting cleanup, implementing
environmental monitoring, and/or performing a risk assessment.
During the 2014 Utah Legislative Session, Section 19-6-420(10)(a) of the UST Act was
amended to allow the DERR to recover certain expenses incurred by the DERR for petroleum
releases not covered by the Petroleum Storage Tank Trust Fund. The DERR’s expenses for
managing and overseeing the abatement, investigation, or corrective action are billed quarterly to
the responsible party. These expenses are billed at a rate set by the Utah Legislature for oversight
and review, currently $125.00 per hour. Payment will be due within 30 days from the billing. Certain
factors may be considered by the Division Director when determining whether to recover these
management and oversight costs. If the responsible party can demonstrate an inability to pay, the
Division Director may grant an exemption from paying these expenses. You may contact us to
request an application for exemption, if needed.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Eileen Brennan, the DERR
project manager, at [phone].
Sincerely,
Brent H. Everett, Director
Division of Environmental Response and Remediation
