List in order of most mobile to least mobile: Bunker C, heating oil, diesel,
gasoline
Gasoline, diesel, heating oil, Bunker C
Is oxygenated gasoline more or less likely to dissolve in water?
More likely; fuel additives like MTBE are more soluble than gasoline
Where to sample on dispenser?
2 feet below where the piping enters the UST
Where to sample along piping?
Every 50 linear feet and along joints/elbows
How many GW samples are needed after decommissioning if a release to GW is
confirmed, and where relative to the tank?
3; 1 upgradient, 2 downgradient
What vapor is an FID used to measure?
Methane
What is a PID measuring?
Mixture of all volatiles
What conditions might impede a PID?
Moisture/humidity, dust, transformers, power lines
What UST capacity does not require a site assessment at closure?
Less than 110 gallons
Purpose of a site check
To investigate a UST site for the presence of a release when evidence indicated that a
release may have occurred
Purpose of a site assessment
To investigate a UST site at the time of closure or change-in-service to determine if a
release has occurred
Site check vs. site assessment
A site check is an investigation of a UST site for a release when evidence indicates that
one many have occurred; a site assessment determines if a release has occurred
, If a confirmed release is identified and reported within 24 hours, what is and is
