Summary:

The Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund was established in 1986. The trust fund provides money for the Environmental Protection Agency or the states to pay cleanup and related costs involving leaking tanks if no financially solvent owners can be found, or if the owner or operator refuses or is unable to comply with an urgent corrective order.
