Storage tanks in San Miguel County
The Division has 65 facilities on the register in San Miguel County — 0.3% of the state total — carrying 153 tanks, of which 49 are still in use.
What kind of sites these are
A tank on this register is not necessarily a filling station. In San Miguel County the register breaks down as:
| Facility category | Facilities | Share |
|---|---|---|
| State/local Government | 20 | 30.8% |
| Retail Gas Station | 12 | 18.5% |
| Lpg Only | 12 | 18.5% |
| Commercial/industrial | 9 | 13.8% |
| Other | 9 | 13.8% |
| Emergency Generator Only | 2 | 3.1% |
| Airport | 1 | 1.5% |
2 of them exist only to run a standby generator, and 12 hold propane rather than petroleum. Neither behaves like a petrol station, and neither is what people picture.
Bare steel in San Miguel County
17 of the 65 facilities in San Miguel County have at least one tank recorded as asphalt-coated or bare steel — 26.2%. 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 in San Miguel County
22 of the 65 facilities in San Miguel County have a release on record — 33.8%. Of those, 0 have one that is not yet closed .
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.

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.
