How do I demonstrate to EPA that my petroleum contaminated site is eligible for grant funding?
A. One approach for addressing petroleum site eligibility in a grant proposal would be to contact a state petroleum program official (link to ASTSWMO website for identified state petroleum program contacts -http://www.astswmo.org/programs_tanks.htm) and discuss the following: 1) whether the state believes the site to be of “relatively low risk” as compared with other petroleum-only sites in the state; 2) whether the state believes there is no “viable responsible party” for the site; and 3) whether the state believes that the person assessing, investigating, or cleaning up the site is a person who is not potentially liable for cleaning up the site. In your grant proposal, if you receive a determination from the state that the site is of low risk, that there is no viable responsible party, and the person assessing, investigating, or cleaning up the site is a person that is not potentially liable for cleaning up the site, you should identify the state petroleum program official you contac
