Your questions answered about tank inspections in the Seward, AK area.
Under 40 CFR 112 (SPCC Rule), facilities storing 1,320 gallons or more of oil in aboveground storage tanks (each container ≥ 55 gal) and with a reasonable potential to discharge into navigable waters—such as Resurrection Bay and its tributary waterways at Seward's doorstep—must maintain an SPCC Plan. This includes documented inspections of tanks, piping, valves, and containment systems to prevent releases from reaching those waters.
Alaska's aboveground storage tank regulations under 18 AAC 75 (Articles 1, 4, and 9), administered by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, Division of Spill Prevention and Response, apply to large regulated facilities storing 420,000 gallons or more of refined petroleum product (or 210,000 gallons or more of crude oil). Those facilities must maintain oil discharge prevention and contingency plans, secondary containment, and inspection programs for field-constructed tanks that follow API 653 or API RP 12R1 risk-based schedules—with internal inspection intervals determined by tank condition, up to 30 years. Secondary containment areas at regulated facilities require documented weekly inspections under 18 AAC 75.075. Mid-size ASTs below the large-facility threshold are not subject to state technical regulation and fall under the federal SPCC Rule and the State Fire Marshal's fire and building codes. Inspections are commonly performed under STI SP001 (shop-built tanks) or API 653 (field-erected tanks).
