Petroleum Fund Enrollment Forms

Operators of underground storage tank (UST) systems must register with NDEP's UST Program using the below UST notification form prior to enrollment in the Petroleum Fund.

What leak detection must I provide when enrolling an underground storage tank in the Nevada Petroleum Fund?

Enrollment coverage for aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) begins 6 months from date of receipt of an AST enrollment form (below) and enrollment payment unless this is a continuing enrollment (NRS 445C.410.2).

All operators of AST systems enrolled in the Fund must visually inspect their systems monthly (NAC 445C.250). The below inspection form may be used to meet this requirement. In addition to visual inspections, any operator with an aboveground storage tank that uses underground distribution piping that cannot be visually inspected, must have the piping tested prior to enrollment (and annually thereafter) for tightness by a certified tester. Any underground delivery piping that is constructed of steel, must also have a corrosion prevention system installed that must also be tested by a qualified corrosion tester annually (Fund Policy Resolution #2017-01).

Tax Documentation for Fund Reimbursements

Nevada operators that had a petroleum release from their storage tank and have received reimbursement claim payment(s) from the Nevada Petroleum Fund may receive tax form 1099-G from the State of Nevada Controller’s office. The Board to Review Claims and NDEP have received a determination from the US Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service that Fund reimbursement payments (i.e. cost-share payments) may be eligible for exclusion from an operator’s reported gross income under Section 126 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended. If you have received tax form 1099-G for the current tax year, download the below Record of Decision to submit to your tax professional along with claim payment documents received from NDEP.
