What the EPA UST Finder snapshot (2018–2021 state data) shows for Ulster County, population 185,613.
Ulster County has 655 registered underground storage tank facilities in the national snapshot — gas stations, fleet yards, and other regulated fuel sites — holding 499 tanks in service and 1,963 tanks that have been closed or removed, plus 43 temporarily out of service. Over the life of the program, 495 fuel releases were reported here; 475 (96% of records) were investigated and closed with No Further Action, and 20 of those cleanup cases were still open when the snapshot was compiled.
