Somerset County has 368 registered underground storage tank facilities in the national snapshot — gas stations, fleet yards, and other regulated fuel sites — holding 226 tanks in service and 876 tanks that have been closed or removed, plus 17 temporarily out of service. Over the life of the program, 177 fuel releases were reported here; 163 (92% of records) were investigated and closed with No Further Action, and 14 of those cleanup cases were still open when the snapshot was compiled.
