Other in Mesa County

207 of the 708 tank facilities in Mesa County — 29.2% — are recorded as other.

How this group compares

Mesa County holds 3.9% of Colorado’s 5,283 other facilities, while holding 3.6% of the register overall — so it is over-represented in this category.

Other means the Division’s catch-all. It is the largest single category, which is worth knowing before reading anything into it.

Between them these facilities carry 220 tanks, of which 9 are still in use.

Bare steel among these

42 of the 207 facilities among these have at least one tank recorded as asphalt-coated or bare steel — 20.3%. 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.

Petroleum releases among these

127 of the 207 facilities among these have a release on record — 61.4%. Of those, 3 have one that is not yet closed , and 3 have one the State is running itself.

None of the open cases is at a facility with tanks still 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.
