How many days must reports for cleanup be submitted after certification?

The requirement to submit reports for cleanup within 60 days after certification is established to ensure timely tracking and monitoring of cleanup efforts. This timeframe allows for the quick evaluation of the effectiveness of interventions taken to address any issues related to heating oil tank leaks or spills.

By limiting the reporting period to 60 days, it facilitates quicker responses if there are ongoing issues and ensures that all parties involved, including regulatory agencies, are kept informed of the progress. The 60-day window strikes a balance between providing adequate time for comprehensive assessment while emphasizing the importance of prompt action and accountability. Submitting reports within this period also helps in maintaining compliance with environmental regulations and standards, ultimately protecting public health and the environment.
