What documentation must be submitted for a UST upgrade?

When upgrading a UST (Underground Storage Tank), it is critical to maintain accurate and up-to-date records with the appropriate regulatory bodies. In New York State, an amended registration form must be submitted within 30 days of the upgrade. This is important for ensuring that the state's records reflect the current status and details of the tank, including any changes made during the upgrade process.

Submitting an amended registration form informs regulatory agencies of modifications such as changes in the tank's capacity, material upgrades, or alterations to the system that may affect its operational integrity or safety compliance. This documentation helps to maintain oversight and can be essential in the case of inspections or regulatory checks.

Other options, while they may seem relevant, do not fulfill the requirement for documentation specific to upgrades. A new registration form may be needed for new installations rather than upgrades, while a report of the upgrade process is not a standard requirement. Stating no documentation is necessary contradicts regulatory expectations, as proper record-keeping is a fundamental element of UST management.
