Underground Storage Tanks in Washington County, WI — 566 facilities, 359 leak records
What the EPA UST Finder snapshot (2018–2021 state data) shows for Washington County, population 135,837.
Washington County has 566 registered underground storage tank facilities in the national snapshot — gas stations, fleet yards, and other regulated fuel sites — holding 284 tanks in service and 1,186 tanks that have been closed or removed, plus 2 temporarily out of service. Over the life of the program, 359 fuel releases were reported here; 347 (97% of records) were investigated and closed with No Further Action, and 12 of those cleanup cases were still open when the snapshot was compiled.
