"Tanks, but no tanks" Washington state provides spill insurance to tank owners who register their tanks. Are you insured?

The mission of the Pollution Liability Insurance Agency (PLIA) is to make pollution liability insurance available and affordable to the owners and operators of regulated petroleum underground storage tanks (USTs) and heating oil tanks by offering reinsurance services to the insurance industry. In 1995 the Legislature added pollution liability coverage for heating oil tanks to PLIA's responsibilities (heating oil tanks are not covered under the UST reinsurance program). The program was created in response to the rising number of heating oil tank releases and the significant impact contamination had on property values, as well as the environment.Website http://www.plia.wa.gov/ The Remediators Inc. can help with tank replacement or removals, and provides soil cleanup services when leaks or spills are encountered.
