How often should the operator conduct a walk-through inspection according to EPA recommendations?

Weekly
Monthly
Quarterly
Annually

The correct answer is: Monthly

The correct frequency for conducting a walk-through inspection according to EPA recommendations is monthly. This timeframe is essential for maintaining compliance with regulatory standards and for ensuring the safe operation of underground storage tank (UST) systems. Monthly inspections allow operators to closely monitor for any potential leaks, operational issues, or maintenance needs that may arise over time. These inspections help identify problems early, thereby reducing the risk of contamination and ensuring that the UST facility operates safely and efficiently. Regular monthly inspections also provide a consistent opportunity for operators to review the condition of the facility, check for proper labeling, assess the functionality of leak detection systems, and ensure that safety equipment is in place. Establishing this routine helps create a proactive maintenance culture, minimizing potential environmental impacts and enhancing overall system reliability.
