What the EPA UST Finder snapshot (2018–2021 state data) shows for Washington County, population 587,291.
Washington County has 770 registered underground storage tank facilities in the national snapshot — gas stations, fleet yards, and other regulated fuel sites — holding 438 tanks in service and 1,842 tanks that have been closed or removed, plus 37 temporarily out of service. Over the life of the program, 772 fuel releases were reported here; 657 (85% of records) were investigated and closed with No Further Action, and 115 of those cleanup cases were still open when the snapshot was compiled.
