Oregon's Leaking Underground Storage Tank Program is part of the
Department's Land Quality Division. The LUST Program handles issues
related to cleanup of soil and groundwater contamination from spills
and releases from regulated underground storage tanks, contractors
working on cleanup of soil and groundwater contamination at LUST
sites and enforcement of state and federal LUST rules.

of Environmental Quality conducted three cleanup training seminars
in October 2012 focusing primarily on petroleum cleanup. Each
session covered the following topics:
- Updates and effective use of risk-based decision-making
guidance
- Vapor intrusion refresher
- Prospective purchaser agreement guidance update
- Quality assurance project plans updates, tanks and
brownfields
