Our Illinois Class ABC Underground Storage Tank (UST) Operator Training Course was the first one approved by the Office of the Illinois State Fire Marshal (OSFM), Division of Petroleum & Chemical Safety in June 2012. Our course was also the first Illinois Class ABC UST Operator Course to be renewed and re-approved (February 2020) to address the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) revisions to the federal UST regulations and the subsequent revised Illinois UST regulations.  According to the OSFM UST Operator Training Provider List, several Illinois Class ABC trainers have not been re-approved. Our Illinois Class A/B UST Training Course covers UST operator classifications, UST systems, UST operation, UST release detection, financial responsibility and investigation and reporting of suspected and confirmed releases from USTs. Our Illinois Class ABC UST Operator Training Course includes an exam at the end of the course.

We have also developed and received approval from the Illinois OSFM of our Illinois Class C UST Operator Training Course designed to provide the initial Class C UST training needed to know how to recognize and respond to problems, alarms, fuel delivery, suspected releases, and spills at Illinois UST facilities.  The training of the Illinois Class C UST operator is the responsibility of the Illinois Class ABC UST operator.  Our training includes a method to create-specific UST procedures that the Illinois Class ABC UST operator can utilize to provide site-specific training to the Illinois Class C UST Operator.
