Underground Storage Tank Program
San Antonio City Council has
adopted a policy identifying the installation of underground storage
tanks and related systems (UST) within the Edwards Recharge
Zone District (ERZD), as inappropriate, and that the use of
USTs within the Edwards Transition Zone shall only be allowed
conditionally.
Because some UST sites were installed
before the banning of UST sites in the ERZD, a monitoring and enforcement program has been put in place
to ensure the maintenance of these existing UST systems. The program also monitors compliance with rules and regulations designed to protect the public health, safety, and welfare.
The regulations contained in this division provide a monitoring
and enforcement program governing USTs within the ERZD and
the Edwards Transition Zone. These regulations are the result
of recommendations made by the Mayor’s Water Quality
Task Force for the purpose of protecting the water quality
of the Edwards Aquifer and the environment. They
are intended to be administered by the Resource Protection
and Compliance Department of the San Antonio Water System.
