Removing electrical transformers as exempted aboveground storage tanks

Summary

SB 1022 amends the state's Aboveground Storage Tank Act to eliminate the exemption that currently shields electrical transformers from regulation. Owners of transformers that store oil or other fluids will now have to register, provide notice, and post required signage like other storage tanks. The change aims to close a regulatory gap and improve environmental oversight.
