Your questions answered about tank inspections in the Stamford, CT 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 expectation of discharge into navigable waters—such as the Mianus River or Stamford Harbor, both of which drain into Long Island Sound—must maintain an SPCC Plan. That plan requires documented inspections of tanks, piping, valves, and containment systems to prevent spills from reaching these waterways.
Connecticut does not maintain AST-specific technical or inspection regulations at the state level. CT DEEP's tank program (RCSA 22a-449(d)) applies exclusively to underground storage tanks; aboveground tanks are instead governed by the federal SPCC Rule and by NFPA standards—including NFPA 30A—as adopted locally and enforced by the Connecticut Office of State Fire Marshal and municipal fire marshals. There is no state-mandated AST registration, no state-prescribed inspection frequency for ASTs, and no CT DEEP environmental oversight specific to aboveground tanks. Inspections are commonly performed under STI SP001 (for shop-built tanks) or API 653 (for field-erected tanks) to satisfy both federal SPCC documentation requirements and NFPA standards as enforced by local authorities.
Genesis Inspection Services works with businesses in Stamford and throughout Fairfield County to provide certified API 653 and STI SP001 tank inspections, delivering the thorough documentation needed to demonstrate compliance with EPA SPCC regulations and Connecticut state requirements.
