1、Designation: E2681 13Standard Guide forEnvironmental Management of Underground Storage TankSystems Storing Hazardous Substances or Petroleum1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2681; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the c
2、ase of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis guide provides an overview of environmental practices for design, installation, oper
3、ation andmaintenance, and corrective action for underground tank systems used for storage of hazardoussubstances and petroleum products. The training and application of these practices should serve toprevent accidental releases of petroleum or hazardous substances from underground storage tanksystem
4、s and to facilitate effective detection and response when and if such releases do occur. Theguide is intended for use by tank system owners and operators and other persons concerned withpractices for prevention and control of environmental releases and remediation of affected environ-mental media. T
5、he guide provides an overview of environmentally sound management practices,identifying key management considerations and referring the user to other related ASTM standardsand industry guidelines for more detailed information. All personal safety considerations are notaddressed in this guide, and it
6、 is the responsibility of the user to identify relevant safety and healthprotection practices and regulations related to tank system management. Caution is warranted due tothe flammable or combustible property of some materials stored in underground storage tanks. Firecodes should be followed.1. Sco
7、pe1.1 The framework discussed in this guide is limited tofacilities with underground storage tanks (USTs) storing haz-ardous substances or petroleum at ambient temperature andatmospheric pressure. This guide is not intended to providedetailed technical specifications for implementation of theapproac
8、hes described in this document, nor to be used as anenforcement tool, but rather to identify the important informa-tion used for environmental management of underground tanksystems. The term “must” is used where United States federalrequirements apply. References to ASTM standards and otherindustry
9、guidelines have been provided to address implemen-tation of the approaches discussed in this guide. Many statesand some local agencies have adopted UST rules that placeadditional responsibilities on the owners/operators of USTsystems. Refer to state and local regulations that may containadditional r
10、equirements. It is not possible to identify allconsiderations or combinations of conditions pertinent to aunique underground storage tank system.1.2 This guide addresses principal considerations related tothe prevention and response for environmental releases fromtank systems and is organized in the
