Underground Storage Tank Program - Field-Based Research (FBR) Project Report
Senate Bill (SB) 989 (Stats. 1999, Ch. 812) required the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB)"initiate a field-based research program to quantify the probability and environmental significance of releases from underground storage tank systems meeting the 1998 upgrade requirements." Under contract with the University of California, Davis, Tracer Research Corporation performed testing of UST systems in California. The project results are discussed in the "Underground Storage Tank System Field-Based Research Project Report", which was submitted to the SWRCB on May 31, 2002. As required by SB 989, the draft report was peer reviewed by experts who are independent from the SWRCB and project team. The following documents are part of the final Underground Storage Tank System Field-Based Research Project Report:
