storage tank systems regulated by the National Energy Board Act or the Canada Oil and Gas Operations Act.

aboveground tanks that have a total combined capacity of 2,500 litres or less and are connected to a heating appliance or an emergency generator.

indoor storage tank systems where the building provides the required level of secondary containment.

storage containers with a capacity of 230 litres or less.

The following storage tank systems do not fall under the regulations:

operated to provide a service to, or belongs to, a federal work or undertaking, including a railway, a port authority, or an airport.operated by a federal department, board or agency, or owned by the Crown regardless of where the systems are located.located on federal land, including systems in federal parks owned or operated by private companies.located on aboriginal land, including systems owned or operated by band councils or private businesses such as gas stations.contain petroleum products such as used oil, home heating oil, jet fuel, diesel and gasoline, or allied petroleum products such as biodiesel, general-purpose thinners for lacquers, isopropanol, uninhibited ethylene glycol and E85 fuel (see Schedule 1 of the regulations for a complete list of allied petroleum products).are comprised of tanks that have a capacity of more than 230 litres and are designed to be installed in a fixed location.The regulations apply to storage tank systems that ( section 2): This section will help you become more familiar with the requirements set out in the regulations and help determine when they apply and how to comply with them. Other reliable and useful tools include a video that explains the application of the regulations, a video on the identification requirements for storage tank systems and a User's Guide for the Online Federal Identification Registry for Storage Tank Systems (PDF, 438KB). At the time, about 15% of systems under federal jurisdiction were more than 20 years old and had no leak detection, corrosion protection, or structures to contain releases.

The regulations came into force in 2008 to help reduce the risk of releases of petroleum products, such as leaks and spills. Some of these requirements are found in the Environmental Code of Practice for Aboveground and Underground Storage Tank Systems Containing Petroleum and Allied Petroleum Products (PDF, 749KB), parts of which are incorporated by reference in the regulations. The Storage Tank Systems for Petroleum Products and Allied Petroleum Products Regulations, under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act 1999 (CEPA), establish requirements for storage tank systems under federal jurisdiction.
