Fuel Tank Seismic Stability

The Fuel Tank Seismic Stability program regulates the large-capacity oil and fuel storage and distribution facilities located in Lane, Multnomah and Columbia counties. The program requires the facilities to assess their vulnerability to earthquakes and develop a plan to minimize risk of damage from earthquakes and secondary effects to employees, surrounding communities and environment.
