Properly label spent solvents and store on drip pads or in diked areas and only with compatible materials. Eventually, the recycled wastewater will need to either be removed and disposed of by a licensed hauler or discharged to sewers or surface waters. State and local authorities need to be contacted prior to any discharge to obtain the necessary permits and to determine if treatment is necessary prior to discharge or disposal. Prevent contamination of runoff by not cleaning the fueling area with running water. Consider using absorbent pads or a mop to clean fueling area.
Air pollution is reduced by using undyed fuels because they contain less sulfur.
Leaking USTs can contaminate ground water. For the requirements that apply to your UST, call your State or local agency. Check with local and state authorities to determine permit requirements. Contain and control leaks and spills as quickly as possible. Clean leaks and spills immediately using dry methods, such as absorbent wipes.
