Welcome
to the NWGLDE website!
We are an independent
Work Group comprised of 11 members: 10 of whom represent various
states and 1 from the U.S. EPA. All our members are state or
federal employees whose full time job is to regulate storage tanks
for their agency�s regulatory program. We appreciate these
agencies� willingness to allow our members to participate in the
NWGLDE.
The Mission of the
NWGLDE is to:
-
Review
leak detection system evaluations to determine if each evaluation
was performed in accordance with an acceptable leak detection test
method protocol;
-
Ensure
that the leak detection systems under review meet EPA and/or other regulatory performance standards, if applicable;
-
Review only draft and final leak
detection test method protocols submitted to the Work Group by a
peer review committee to ensure they meet equivalency standards
stated in the EPA standard test procedures;
- Make the results of such reviews
available to interested parties.
- An important change to the Disclaimer has been made. Please refer to the last item on the Disclaimer page.
The
List of Leak Detection Evaluations for Storage Tank Systems was
created by the
NWGLDE to fulfill our mission. It is a compilation of
storage tank and associated piping
leak detection equipment that have undergone Third-Party Evaluations
and have been found by the Work
Group to meet the evaluation requirements contained in accepted
protocols.
The Work Group maintains a website version of the List. The website version of the List is updated continuously and has the most up-to-date information available. An annual list of changes to the listings is maintained on our “News & Events" page. Beginning in 2017, the Work Group will retain the annual list of changes for your reference.

your equipment included on the NWGLDE's List, please download

Group:
