Gasoline Dispensing Facilities Veeder Root ISD Software Advisory
An Advisory has been issued for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities (GDF) that have a Veeder Root monitoring console with In Station Diagnostic (ISD) software. GDFs with ISD software installed are permitted to dispense more than 600,000 gallons of gasoline annually.
IF THIS ADVISORY APPLIES TO MY GDF, WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO?
No later than March 31, 2023, complete Option #1 or Option #2. The District recommends that the chosen option is implemented when the facility already has a service contractor on-site for other repairs or regular testing. Failing to complete an option by the deadline may result in
enforcement.
District inspectors will verify current compliance at GDFs during regular inspections, but the
District would appreciate a courtesy notification when a facility corrects this problem. Please send a brief email to gdf@ysaqmd.org with the following information:
• Facility name and address
• Date of repair work
• Specify if software was updated (Option 1) or if ACCEPT HIGH ORVR is ENABLED (Option 2).
