  • Underground petroleum tanks mar Albemarle drinking water - C-ville, 6/30/09: As of June 2009, Albemarle County had 34 cases of leaking underground petroleum storage tanks, the highest of any locality covered by the Va. Dept. of Environmental Quality?s (DEQ) Valley Regional Office, which is handling some 200 such cases. Factors leading to the relatively high number of Albemarle cases include its population density, the area's geology, a high number of residences built in the 1960s and 1970s with home heating oil tanks, and a high number of small gas stations with relatively old tanks. In at least one case, residential development near the site of a former business resulted in gasoline contamination of new homes' wells. Prospective home buyers are largely responsible for investigating whether a property might be near the site of a former storage tank. More information about the DEQ?s petroleum program is available online at www.deq.virgin ia.gov/tanks/h omepage.html, from your regional DEQ office, or from the DEQ Petroleum Program at (804) 698-4010.
