University Place issues a residential underground tank decommissioning permit. The city's 2019 handout lists a $55 fee and a notarized decommissioning report filed within 30 days, with no final inspection. Fees and steps may have changed, so confirm with the city before work starts.
Much of University Place was built in the 1950s-70s, the era of buried oil tanks. If you're selling, a buyer's inspector may ask about one even if you've never seen it.
