14 Nov Heating Oil Tank Cleanups in Oregon - Are We Done Yet? Heating Oil Tank Cleanups in Oregon - Are We Done Yet? Wednesday, November 14, 2018 (9:30 AM to 10:30 AM) 1 CE Hours Webinar Details You're Registered! DescriptionLocationCancellation Policy Contamination from leaking heating oil tanks emerged as an environmental issue in Oregon in the 1980's. In 1999 Oregon developed a contractor certification system for heating oil tank cleanups designed to match timelines and needs of typical residential real estate transactions. Current estimates suggest only one third of the tanks in Oregon have been identified so far. In this webinar Oregon DEQ staff will summarize information about remaining heating oil tanks and common issues with project work. Homeowner and real estate transaction interests will be emphasized. We will also review a DEQ budget request being prepared for the 2019 legislative session intended to improve the effectiveness and outcomes of this work. DEQ is seeking questions and comments about these issues from Realtors. The input from this session may influence design, funding and pace of heating oil tank cleanups in Oregon. A webinar titled "Heating Oil Tank Closures in Oregon: Status and Process" was presented by OAR in March 2018 with basic information about tank discovery, investigation and closure. Viewing it before this session will provide background but is not a prerequisite. This webinar will provide 1 credit of CE in Environmental Protection Issues in Real Estate.
