Potential points of contention

  • Environmental liability and cleanup standards – Questions about who bears responsibility for contamination and what remediation standards apply
  • Business compliance costs – Whether new or updated storage requirements impose significant expenses on fuel retailers, distributors, and storage operators
  • Local versus state authority – Whether the bill preempts local zoning and safety ordinances or allows municipalities additional regulatory power
