Hard to get certified
Class A/B means required state training and a tough exam. That’s a second job most owners never wanted.

UST = tanks · NJ = here
UST NJ means exactly what it says: underground storage tank Class A/B operators for New Jersey. No clever brand. No guessing what we do.
The problem
NJ requires a Class A/B operator. Most owners do not want that job.
02
No name on file = risk
Without designated operators, registration can stall. That can stop fuel deliveries. Bad day for a station.
03
The “program” is a pile of details
Release detection, spill buckets, Class C staff, records for DEP… Easy to ignore until an inspector doesn’t.
How UST NJ works
Three steps. That’s the whole company.
Built for busy people who need compliance — not a 40-page binder.
Audit the site
We check registration, who’s on file as A/B, Class C coverage, and obvious gaps. You get a scorecard: good / fix / urgent.
Usually week oneWe manage the UST program
UST NJ’s licensed Class A/B goes on your Facility Certification Questionnaire. We train Class C staff and keep the calendar simple.

Why UST NJ
Named for the job. Built for the job.
Class A/B
That’s literally what we are
NJ only
NJDEP rules, not generic USA fluff
Plain English
Station owners, not lawyers
Multi-site
One operator across your NJ sites
In plain English
What is Class A, B, and C?
If the letters are new, you’re normal. Here’s the 30-second version.
Every regulated UST facility in NJ needs three operator roles. One person can hold more than one if trained for each. UST NJ covers A and B. We train your people for C.
- Class A
- Big-picture operator. Program, people, records, overall compliance.
- Class B
- Day-to-day program person. Equipment, detection, recordkeeping on the ground.
- Class C
- People on site (often clerks). First response to alarms and spills. We train them.
- You as owner
- You still own the tanks and the liability. We become the trained A/B on file. That’s honest.
Who calls UST NJ
If you have regulated tanks in NJ, this is for you.
Gas stations & c-stores
Retail fuel sites that need A/B on registration and Class C people who know the alarms.
Fleet & card-lock fueling
Municipal and commercial yards — including unmanned sites that still need operators designated.
Generator USTs
Backup fuel tanks that still need Class A/B/C under NJ rules even when nobody “sells gas.”
Multi-site owners
One licensed A/B across your New Jersey locations instead of training someone at every address.

FAQ
Straight answers
What does UST NJ actually do?
We are your Class A/B operator for New Jersey underground storage tanks. We start with an audit, put a licensed Class A/B on your Facility Certification Questionnaire, train Class C staff, and keep a simple compliance program running. If problems hit, we do problem response.
Can a company be my Class A/B operator in NJ?
Yes. NJ allows contractors to be designated. You still keep owner/operator liability. UST NJ becomes the trained A/B on file.
Do you replace my tank testing company?
No. Certified UST contractors still do physical testing and repairs. We manage the operator program and help you know when those things are due.
How fast can we start?
Most sites can kick off and audit within days. Designation timing depends on your registration paperwork — we map that on the first call.
