EVERGREEN RESOURCES MGT. OPS. Fuel Terminal in West Memphis, Arkansas

EVERGREEN RESOURCES MGT. OPS. is a fuel terminal situated at 1282 S 8TH ST in West Memphis, Crittenden County, Arkansas. As a fuel terminal, it plays a key role in the storage and distribution of petroleum products within the United States. The facility is currently operational and classified under NAICS code 424710, which covers petroleum bulk stations and terminals. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including the Underground Storage Tank (UST) regulations and the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rule. These regulations require secondary containment, leak detection, and spill prevention measures to mitigate environmental risks. The terminal's location in the Mississippi River Delta region places it in an area with a high water table and proximity to sensitive water bodies, necessitating robust containment systems. As a fuel terminal, this facility is part of the critical infrastructure that supports local and regional fuel supply chains. Its operations contribute to the energy needs of West Memphis and the broader Arkansas region. The facility's environmental management practices, including spill prevention and vapor recovery, are essential for minimizing impacts on the surrounding community and ecosystems.

The facility is located in West Memphis, Arkansas, near the Mississippi River, an area with a high water table and sensitive aquatic ecosystems. The region's alluvial soils and proximity to groundwater resources require careful management of fuel storage to prevent spills and leaks. Secondary containment systems, such as double-walled tanks and bermed areas, are typical for such terminals to protect against soil and water contamination. Vapor recovery systems help reduce air emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which is important given the area's industrial and urban context.
