Bret LeRoux, P.G.   Manager

In 1983, Florida was one of the first states in the union to pass legislation, adopt rules, and develop a program for the regulation of underground and aboveground storage tank systems.

Responsibilities of the Section include:

   Compliance Assurance

• Enforcement for non-compliant facilities that have been referred by contracted counties

• Contract management and auditing of compliance contracts

• Petroleum cleanup management (Chapter 62-770, F.A.C.) for all sites not eligible for state-funded cleanup in counties without cleanup contracts

Do I Need to Register My Storage Tank?
