1. Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant, TN (United States)

The Underground Storage Tank (UST) Management Program at the Y-12 Plant was established with the mission of locating UST systems in operation at the Y-12 Plant, ensuring that all operating UST systems are free of leaks, and establishing a program for removing unnecessary UST systems and upgrading UST systems that continue to be needed. The Program requires an integrated approach to the management of UST systems, with each evaluated against the same requirements and regulations, and a common approach employed when corrective action is mandated. This Plan outlines the compliance issues that must be addressed by the UST Management Program; reviews the UST inventory and compliance approach; presents the status and planned activities for USTs to be upgraded, USTs to be closed, removed and closed USTs, and new installations and replacements; and presents a proposed schedule and priority listing under which the activities will be performed. The Y-12 UST Management Program is divided into five components: (1) overall program management, (2) UST system maintenance (including leak detection) and upgrades, (3) tank removals and closures, (4) site characterizations/investigations, and (5) site corrective actions. Forty-four USTs and former UST sites are included within the Y-12 UST Management Program. The status and planned activities required for these tanks to meet the applicable Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) and US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations are described in this plan.
