The bill proposes amendments to section 49-1008 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which pertains to the management of underground storage tanks. The changes focus on the procedures for the temporary closure, permanent closure, and change in service of these tanks to ensure they are conducted in a manner that prevents the release of regulated substances.

The bill modifies the language to align with federal regulations, replacing the word "which" with "that" and "parts" with "sections" to reference the specific sections of the 40 Code of Federal Regulations (280.70 through 280.74) that provide the standards for these activities. The director is tasked with prescribing rules that are consistent with these federal regulations, and until new rules are adopted, the existing federal standards must be followed.
