Under 40 CFR 112 (SPCC Rule), facilities storing 1,320 gallons or more of oil in ASTs (each container ≥ 55 gal) that present a reasonable expectation of discharge into navigable waters—such as the Souris River (Mouse River), which flows directly through Minot—must maintain an SPCC Plan. That plan must include documented inspections of tanks, piping, valves, and secondary containment systems to demonstrate readiness against spill events.
North Dakota enacted AST-specific statutory authority under N.D. Cent. Code ch. 23.1-04.1 (via House Bill 1058, 2025), with implementing rules adopted by the North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality, Division of Waste Management – AST Program under N.D. Admin. Code ch. 33.1-13-01, effective October 1, 2025 / April 1, 2026. The rules address leak detection, secondary containment, release reporting, and corrective action for petroleum ASTs. Under NDAC 33.1-13-01, owners and operators are required to conduct monthly visual inspections of tanks, piping, and containment areas, along with periodic leak-detection testing. Tank integrity testing must follow STI SP001 (shop-built tanks) or API 653 (field-erected tanks) per N.D.C.C. § 23.1-12-02(17). PTRCF registration under N.D.C.C. ch. 23.1-12 is mandatory for AST owners seeking cleanup-fund eligibility, with annual fees of $150–$300 per tank. The State Fire Marshal separately enforces NFPA 30/30A fire-safety standards for fuel-dispensing and bulk storage facilities under NDAC 10-07.
