MANN COMPANY Fuel Terminal in Brawley, California | United States Fuel Infrastructure

MANN COMPANY is a fuel terminal situated at 1313 Main Street in Brawley, California, within Imperial County. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS code 454319, which covers other fuel dealers. As a fuel terminal, it plays a key role in the local fuel supply chain, handling storage and distribution of petroleum products. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including Underground Storage Tank (UST) regulations and Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rules. In California, additional state-level requirements from the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) and local air quality management districts apply. Fuel terminals of this type typically have multiple storage tanks with secondary containment systems to prevent leaks and spills. Located in the agricultural region of Imperial Valley, the terminal supports local farming operations and transportation needs. Its proximity to the U.S.-Mexico border also positions it as a potential hub for cross-border fuel distribution. The facility's operational status ensures continued fuel availability for the community and surrounding areas.

The facility is located in the Imperial Valley, a region with a hot desert climate and intensive agriculture. Fuel terminals in such areas face risks of soil and groundwater contamination from spills or leaks, particularly given the reliance on underground storage tanks. Secondary containment systems and regular monitoring are critical to mitigate these risks. The proximity to sensitive agricultural lands and the Salton Sea ecosystem underscores the importance of robust spill prevention measures.
