The facility is operational and plays a role in the local fuel supply chain, serving the surrounding agricultural and rural communities. As a fuel terminal in the United States, this facility operates under federal and state regulations including the EPA's Underground Storage Tank (UST) requirements and Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rules.
