The Environmental Protection Agency released two documents associated with the recently revised underground storage tank (UST) regulations. 

The first document,  summarizes federal UST requirements for installation, reporting, spill and overfill prevention, corrosion protection, release detection, walkthrough inspections, compatibility, operator training, repairs, financial responsibility, release response, and closure.
 
The second document,  discusses UST compatibility requirements for tank systems storing biofuels (such as biodiesel) and petroleum-biofuel blends. It also presents actions for minimizing the risk of a release from UST systems due to incompatibility.
