State Water Resources Control Board staff presented a comprehensive rewrite of Chapter 16 (underground storage tank regulations). The rewrite reorganizes definitions and administrative requirements, tightens construction, monitoring, testing, closure and reuse rules for USTs, formalizes electronic submittal channels (CERS and GeoTracker), and adds enforcement clarifications including red‑tagging and IME plans. The board adopted the regulations on Sept. 3; they are under review at the Office of Administrative Law and staff said they are expected to take effect Jan. 1.
