 UST Facility Ownership Changes

New owners of UST facilities must submit a UST-8, UST-15, Financial Responsibility and other supporting documentation of the change-in-ownership of a UST system to the Division of Waste Management, UST Section within 5 days of the closing of the sale. The change-in-ownership must be finalized with the section within 30 days of the sale date. If the ownership has not been changed with the UST Section within 30 days of the sale date then the UST operating permit is no longer valid.  In accordance with NCGS 143-215.94U a UST facility must have a current UST operating permit that lists the current owner or operator of the UST facility to place or receive petroleum in any of the UST systems at the facility.
