Manual: Operating and Maintaining Underground Storage Tanks Systems in Michigan

Contact:  Storage Tank Unit 517-335-7211
Agency: Environmental Quality


This manual is the Michigan version of a similarly titled Environmental Protection Agency manual. It contains brief summaries of the state and federal underground storage tank (UST) requirements for operation and maintenance (O&M), as well as practical help that goes beyond the requirements. Checklists prompt the user to look closely at what kinds of equipment are in use and how to keep that equipment working properly over the lifetime of the UST system. The manual provides record-keeping forms that also help the UST owner and operator keep equipment operating properly. Owners and operators of underground storage tank (UST) systems will find this manual contains checklists and information that will help them properly operate and maintain their USTs.
