Underground Storage Tank Program The Underground Storage Tank (UST) Program works with owners and operators of underground storage tanks to ensure that the compliance, leak detection, new installations, upgrades and tank closures are completed in accordance with North Dakota's Underground Storage Tank Rules. The rules are available on our website or purchasable from the Division Of Waste Management. The UST program also works with leaking underground storage tanks (LUST). The LUST program uses Federal funds to conduct investigations and remediation activities at LUST sites where the owner/operator is unable or unwilling to pay for these activities. The funds used in LUST contracts are cost recoverable. The UST Program maintains a UST/LUST registry. Owners/operators of tanks regulated under the UST program are required to notify the Division and register their tanks. The registry is compiled in an Access database. Formats available are: Excel, Word, and Wordperfect. Printouts provide location and owner names, addresses and status. Persons or businesses who wish to purchase a copy are required to provide the UST Program with storage media or the database can be e-mailed. For more information or questions concerning the UST/LUST database, contact, by e-mail, Carl Ness. Underground Storage Tank Program Documents Additional information on underground storage tanks may be found at the Environmental Protection Agency's UST page.
