# Storage tanks in Lake County, Colorado — 62 facilities

> Every facility on Colorado's regulated storage tank register in Lake County: 62 sites, 140 tanks, 39 still in use. Three public files joined on the facility ID.

## Storage tanks in Lake County

The Division has **62** facilities on the register in Lake County — 0.3% of the state total — carrying 140 tanks, of which **39** are still in use.

### What kind of sites these are

A tank on this register is not necessarily a filling station. In
Lake County the register breaks down as:

| Facility category | Facilities | Share |
|---|---|---|
| [Other](/category/other.md) | 22 | 35.5% |
| [Retail Gas Station](/category/retail-gas-station.md) | 13 | 21.0% |
| [State/local Government](/category/state-local-government.md) | 9 | 14.5% |
| [Commercial/industrial](/category/commercial-industrial.md) | 7 | 11.3% |
| [Lpg Only](/category/lpg-only.md) | 6 | 9.7% |
| [Federal Government](/category/federal-government.md) | 2 | 3.2% |
| [Petroleum Distributor](/category/petroleum-distributor.md) | 1 | 1.6% |
| [Airport](/category/airport.md) | 1 | 1.6% |
| [Bulk Plant](/category/bulk-plant.md) | 1 | 1.6% |

0 of them exist only
to run a standby generator, and 6 hold propane rather
than petroleum. Neither behaves like a petrol station, and neither is what
people picture.

### Bare steel in Lake County

**22** of the 62 facilities in Lake County have at
least one tank recorded as asphalt-coated or bare steel —
35.5%. That is the material the federal upgrade rules were
written to replace: unprotected steel corrodes, and corrosion is how a tank
fails.

It describes what a tank is *made of*, not what
condition it is in, and many such tanks are long closed.
[Why it is still the number to know](/steel.md).

### Petroleum releases in Lake County

**25** of the 62 facilities in Lake County have a
release on record — 40.3%. Of those,
**2** have one that is *not yet closed*
.

**2** of them still have tanks in use.

Colorado records the *stage* a cleanup has reached, not
merely open or closed — characterisation requested, plan being
implemented, state lead. That distinction is the useful part, and it is on
each facility’s own record. [What each stage
means](/stage.md).

### Cities and towns in Lake County

| City | Facilities | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Leadville | 55 | 88.7% |
| Twin Lakes | 6 | 9.7% |
| Climax | 1 | 1.6% |

Cities do not get pages of their own: a city page would be a subset of this one, and two pages describing the same facilities is how a site starts repeating itself.

### A tank on a property in Lake County?

62 facilities are on the Division’s register in Lake County, 2 with a release not yet closed. This site tells you a record exists; it is not an assessment. Tell us the address and we pass the request to environmental consultants and tank contractors working in Colorado.
