Douglas County has 199 registered underground storage tank facilities in the national snapshot — gas stations, fleet yards, and other regulated fuel sites — holding 109 tanks in service and 444 tanks that have been closed or removed, plus 30 temporarily out of service. Over the life of the program, 271 fuel releases were reported here; 243 (90% of records) were investigated and closed with No Further Action, and 28 of those cleanup cases were still open when the snapshot was compiled.
