The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 allotted $200 million from the Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Fund to EPA for cleaning up releases from underground storage tanks throughout the country. The State of Alabama is receiving $4,086,000 to address releases from underground storage tank systems within our state. These releases are at sites that do not have a viable responsible party identified.
