Your questions answered about tank inspections in the Eugene, OR area.
Under 40 CFR 112 (SPCC Rule), facilities storing 1,320 gallons or more of oil in ASTs (each container ≥ 55 gal) and with a reasonable expectation of discharge into navigable waters—such as the Willamette River and its tributary the McKenzie River, both of which flow through the Eugene area—must maintain an SPCC Plan. This plan must address documented inspections of tanks, piping, valves, and containment systems to reduce the risk of oil reaching these waterways.
Oregon regulates aboveground storage tanks primarily through the 2022 Oregon Fire Code, administered by the Oregon Office of the State Fire Marshal under OAR 837-030. Oregon DEQ explicitly states it has not adopted rules for AST installation or removal; the State Fire Marshal holds primary responsibility. For flammable and combustible liquid ASTs over 1,000 gallons, the State Fire Marshal requires a plan review and a final installation inspection before the tank may be filled. There is no state-mandated periodic inspection frequency for ASTs; ongoing inspection intervals are governed at the federal level by the SPCC Rule. Facility operators commonly use STI SP001 (for shop-built tanks) or API 653 (for field-erected tanks) as the applicable inspection standard.
Genesis Inspection Services helps Eugene-area businesses operating aboveground storage tanks throughout Lane County by conducting certified API 653 and STI SP001 inspections and delivering the thorough documentation needed to support compliance with EPA SPCC regulations and Oregon state requirements.
