TRIPLE CLEAN LIQIFUELS Fuel Terminal in Bay City, Michigan

TRIPLE CLEAN LIQIFUELS is a fuel terminal situated at 401 Atlantic Street in Bay City, Michigan, within the United States. As a fuel terminal, it serves as a critical node in the regional petroleum supply chain, handling the storage and distribution of fuels to downstream markets. 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 US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including the Underground Storage Tank (UST) regulations and the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rules. These regulations mandate secondary containment, leak detection, and spill response plans to mitigate environmental risks. In Michigan, additional state-level oversight from the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) applies, particularly for facilities near the Great Lakes watershed. Located in Bay County, the terminal is situated in an industrial area near the Saginaw River, which flows into Saginaw Bay of Lake Huron. This proximity to sensitive water bodies underscores the importance of robust containment and monitoring systems. The facility's role in the local fuel distribution network supports transportation, agriculture, and industrial activities in the region, contributing to energy security and economic stability.

The facility is located in an industrial area of Bay City, Michigan, near the Saginaw River, which drains into Saginaw Bay of Lake Huron. This proximity to a major freshwater ecosystem heightens the importance of spill prevention and secondary containment measures. The region experiences cold winters, which can affect tank integrity and increase the risk of leaks from freeze-thaw cycles. Typical environmental concerns for fuel terminals include vapor emissions, groundwater contamination from leaks, and stormwater runoff. Regulatory compliance with SPCC and UST rules is critical to protect the sensitive aquatic environment.
