Your questions answered about tank inspections in the Winston-Salem, NC area.
Under 40 CFR 112 (SPCC Rule), facilities storing 1,320 gallons or more of oil in aboveground storage tanks (each container ≥ 55 gal) that could reasonably discharge into navigable waters—such as the Yadkin River and its tributaries flowing through the Winston-Salem area—must maintain an SPCC Plan. That plan must include documented inspections of tanks, piping, valves, and containment systems to demonstrate ongoing spill prevention and response readiness.
North Carolina does not maintain AST-specific technical regulations; NCDEQ explicitly states it does not regulate the installation, construction, permitting, or monitoring of aboveground storage tanks. AST construction standards are addressed in Chapter 22 of the North Carolina Fire Code and NFPA 30/30A, enforced locally by county and municipal fire prevention departments. Oil spill prevention for qualifying facilities is governed by the federal SPCC Rule (40 CFR Part 112), with NCDEQ's role limited to release reporting under the Non-UST Program and registration of Oil Terminal Facilities storing more than 21,000 gallons under NCGS 143-215.96. Inspections are commonly performed under STI SP001 (shop-built tanks) or API 653 (field-erected tanks).
Genesis Inspection Services helps businesses in Winston-Salem and throughout Forsyth County maintain safe, compliant aboveground storage tank operations by delivering certified API 653 and STI SP001 inspections with thorough documentation—supporting full compliance with EPA SPCC regulations and North Carolina state requirements.
