Nevada Revised Statutes Title 40. Public Health and Safety § 445C.340. Registration of storage tanks: Collection of annual fee; exempt tanks; reimbursement and other liability for noncompliance

1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the Division shall collect for deposit in the Fund an annual fee not to exceed $100, set by the Board, for the registration of each storage tank.

2. No fee is to be collected, and no registration is required, with respect to a storage tank used to store heating oil for consumption on the same premises where the oil is stored, or a storage tank operated by a person not required to pay the fee for petroleum produced in or imported into this State.

3. The operator of a storage tank required to be registered pursuant to this section who fails to register that tank or to pay the annual fee when required shall reimburse the Division for any expense incurred by the Division in cleaning up a discharge from that storage tank and for any discharge of liability to a third person. If, in cleaning up the discharge from that storage tank, the Division expends money from the Fund in accordance with NRS 445C.320, the Division shall, upon being reimbursed by the operator of the storage tank pursuant to this subsection, deposit that money in the Fund.
