MI HB5365

Transfers regulatory authority for underground storage tank systems from the Department of Environmental Quality to the State Fire Marshal.

Requires owners of underground storage tank systems to register annually with the State Fire Marshal and pay a $100 registration fee per tank, with fees deposited into the underground storage tank regulatory enforcement fund.

Creates the underground storage tank regulatory enforcement fund in the state treasury, funded by registration fees and used solely for enforcement; suspends registration fees if fund balance exceeds $8 million, reinstates them if balance falls below $4 million.

Allows the State Fire Marshal to delegate enforcement authority to local units of government with certified inspectors and permits the State Fire Marshal to establish certification qualifications and delegation criteria through rulemaking.

Requires owners to notify the State Fire Marshal within 24 hours of suspected or confirmed releases from underground storage tank systems and provide supplementary information including property ownership, tank contents history, and monitoring procedures.
