Underground Storage Tanks

EPA's underground storage tank (UST) guidance is organized by subject area (such as Energy Policy Act of 2005 and American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009). See A To Z Subject Index For Underground Storage Tanks.

• Between 1988 and 1999, EPA issued guidance via policy directives. See UST program directives, which is organized by topic.

As part of EPA's annual strategic planning and budgeting, EPA publishes guidance for national program managers (NPMs). This guidance defines national policy, strategic goals, and priority activities and related enforcement goals for regions, and in some instances, states and tribes. NPM guidance for the UST program is part of EPA's Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response annual guidance. See EPA's Planning, Budget, and Results, Annual Planning and Budgeting.
