SEEK will host the most up to date information previously found in the Storage Tank Facility Data Search. Also included is a user portal for RST owners, operators, and contractors to submit required forms, track upcoming testing requirements, and make annual registration payments. Fees for registration must be paid before a submission will be processed. Online payment through SEEK after signing and submitting forms is preferred.

These tanks are primarily located at retail gasoline and diesel sales facilities but may also include bulk petroleum storage facilities, private fleet fueling facilities, schools, health facilities, and emergency generating stations.</p> <p>Prior to the mid-1980s, underground storage tanks had been regulated piecemeal by the federal government through various environmental statutes. When studies revealed growing problems with a large number of tank systems, along with potential for future problems, Congress mandated changes that were initiated by the states. These standards focused on new tank system installation standards, existing tank upgrades, registration requirements, closure requirements, and corrective action requirements.</p> <p>Besides overseeing the regulatory program, the office administers a trust fund for storage tank owners to help them meet their financial responsibility requirements or use for cleanup costs. The agency also may activate the fund for emergencies associated with storage tanks.</p> <aside id="division" class="row"> <div class="blueBox"> <p class="h2SS blue bold">Regulated Storage Tanks Data Files</p> <ul class="blue"> <li><a href="/rst/programs/fees/facility_data.aspx" class="pSS">Storage Tank Facility Data Search</a></li> <li><a href="/rst/programs/fees/owner_data.aspx" class="pSS">Storage Tank Operators Data Search</a></li> </ul> <p>Check out our online searches to find regulated storage tank data files for the following: </p> <ul class="pSS"> <li>Leaking Tank Information</li> <li>Storage Tank Facility Information</li> <li>Storage Tank Fees and</li> <li>Financial Assurance Information</li> <li>Storage Tank Owner Information</li> </ul> </div> </aside> </article> <aside id="rightCol" class="col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-4 col-lg-4" role="complementary"> <div id="rightColBorder" class="spacingBottom"> <h2 class="rightColHeading" style="margin-bottom:0">REPORT A COMPLAINT</h2> <a class="pSS" href="/complaints/forms/petroleum_complaint.aspx">Online Complaint Reporting Form</a> <h2 class="rightColHeading">Office of Land Resources (OLR) Contacts</h2> <address class="rightColSpacing"> <div class="rightColPosition"> <p>Associate Director</p> <p>Office of Land Resources</p> </div> <p><a href="mailto:bryan.leamons@arkansas.gov?subject=Email from RST Main Webpage">Bryan Leamons</a></p> </address> <address class="rightColSpacing"> <div class="rightColPosition"> <p>OLR Compliance Branch Manager</p> </div> <p class="bold"><a href="mailto:Jay.Rich@arkansas.gov?subject=E-mail from RST Main Webpage">Jay Rich</a></p> <p>501-682-0856</p> </address> <address class="rightColSpacing"> <div class="rightColPosition"> <p>RST Inspector Supervisors</p> </div> <p class="bold"><a href="mailto:Randy.Beard@arkansas.gov?subject=E-mail from RST Main Webpage">Randy Beard</a></p> <p>501-837-6957</p> <p class="bold"><a href="mailto:Bryan.Paul@arkansas.gov?subject=E-mail from RST Main Webpage">Bryan Paul</a></p> <p>501-682-0799</p> </address> <address class="rightColSpacing"> <div class="rightColPosition"> <p>OLR Programs Trust Fund Administrator</p> </div> <p><a href="mailto:Jacqueline.Trotta@arkansas.gov?subject=E-mail from RST Main Webpage">Jacqueline Trotta</a></p> <p>501-682-0632</p> </address> <address class="rightColSpacing"> <div class="rightColPosition"> <p>OLR Technical Branch Manager</p> </div> <p><a href="mailto:Dianna.Kilburn@arkansas.gov?subject=E-mail from RST Main Webpage">Dianna Kilburn</a></p> <p>501-682-0844</p> </address> <div class="rightColSpacing"> <p><a href="/rst/forms/questions-intro.aspx">Questions or Comments?</a></p> </div> </div> <div class="blueBox" style="padding:0.25em 1em 0.5em 1em">  <p class="h2SS blue bold">FOIA Requests</p> <p class="black pSS wrapText">Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests from the public, should be directed to the Arkansas Department of Energy and Environment's public information coordinator listed below.</p><p><a href="mailto:EE.FOIA@arkansas.gov?subject=E-mail from RST Main Webpage">FOIA Requests</a></p> </div> </aside> </div> </div> </div> </div> <hr class="footerHR" /> <footer> <div id="footerWrapper" class="row" role="navigation" aria-label="Footer Navigation"> <div id="CustomFooter"> </div>  <div id="footerMain"> <ul id="footerColFirst" class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4 col-md-4 col-lg-4"> <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> <li><a href="/infosvs/website/">About This Site</a></li> <li><a href="/infosvs/website/forms/survey.aspx"> <img src="/images/user_experience_survey.svg" width="225" height="64" alt="User Experience Survey" class="home" /></a></li> <li> <div id="google_translate_element" style="margin-top: 12px"></div> <script type="text/javascript"> function googleTranslateElementInit() { new google.translate.TranslateElement( {pageLanguage: 'en'}, 'google_translate_element' );
