Pursuant to Chapter 6.75, Article 9, Section 25299.81(d) of the Health and Safety Code (H&SC), the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) is mandated to prepare an annual report to the Legislature describing the status of the Underground Storage Tank Cleanup Fund (Fund). This annual report discusses recent legislative changes to the Fund for improving the efficiency of the program, with special emphasis on expediting environmental cleanup and the distribution of monies from the Fund
Although Assembly Bill 116 (Chapter 870, Statutes of 1996) established a moratorium on the preparation and submission of this annual report until October 1, 1999, the SWRCB has prepared this annual report as a continuing effort to provide quality customer service to our claimants, local regulatory agencies, and other public members serviced by the Fund.
