Underground Storage Tank Cleanup Fund - Technical Forms and Information
The Fund's Technical Unit consists of Engineers and Geologists who make determinations on compliance of technical and cost requirements. Their reviews consist of eligibility of tank systems and substances released, reasonableness of corrective action technology and costs, and compliance with environmental laws. In addition, the Technical Unit assists claimants with the Fund's pre-approval of costs for proposed corrective action activities and with the State's mandated three-bid process.
The Fund has recently implemented a new Pay for Performance (PFP) Pilot Program. The use of PFP as a way to pay for cleanups began in Florida and other eastern states and is growing in popularity nationally. The concept is simple, a fixed, lump sum price is negotiated, a target cleanup goal is set and the contractor receives progress payments as pollutant concentrations are reduced.
Update ! The Fund has temporarily suspended approving any new PFP contracts indefinitely.
Listed below are forms and guidance documents that the Technical Unit has developed to assist claimants.
