Washington's Underground Storage Tank (UST) Program:

Tank Fee Increase in 2020

Washington's UST fees will increase on July 1, 2020, from $173.80 to $181.83 per tank.

As required by law, the fiscal growth factor was used to determine the amount of fee increase. The fiscal growth factor is calculated by the economic and revenue forecast council and adopted by the expenditure limit committee using the average growth in state personal income for the previous ten fiscal years.

More information on the UST fee increase can be found on the Washington department of ecology's UST program web page http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/tcp/ust-lust/tanks.html.
