MONTHLY WALK-THROUGH INSPECTIONS AT

UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS SITES

Division of Waste Management – Underground Storage Tank Program

Revision: 05/2015 (Information Sheet - Page 2 of 2)

As part of the 2005 Energy Policy Act, facilities that operate regulated

underground storage tank (UST) systems are required to have their Class B

operator perform or oversee the performance of a monthly inspection of their

UST system(s). These inspections are conducted to ensure essential

equipment is operating properly. The North Dakota Department of Health’s

Underground Storage Tank Program has developed a “Monthly Walk-Through

Inspection Checklist” in order to assist UST owners and operators with this

requirement (see reverse).

Inspections are required on a monthly basis and must be documented to be in

compliance. Initial each box below the date of inspection to indicate that the

device/system was inspected and found to be operating properly on that date.

A minimum of one year’s monthly walk-through inspections must be

kept on site. If the monthly inspection results indicate a potential leak in

your underground storage tank system, the reason for the leak must be

investigated and corrective action taken to address the source. In addition, if

a release of product has occurred, it must be reported to the North Dakota

Department of Health’s Underground Storage Tank Program at

(701) 328-5166.
