Report Description

As of May 2018, the Postal Service had 145 active and 35 inactive tanks in its underground storage tanks (UST) program. Active USTs contain fuel (gasoline and diesel) to power generators and its fleet of vehicles. USTs are designated as inactive when the tank is no longer economically viable to keep in place and operating, it is not sufficiently used to keep operating, or it is no longer needed. Our objective was to assess the Postal Service’s effectiveness in managing its UST program.
