§ 23-1305. Procedure for abandoning storage reservoir.    In   connection  with  the  abondonment  of  any  underground  storage  reservoir for which a permit has been granted pursuant to  this  article  or  in connection with the revocation of any such permit, the department  shall require the premises to be placed in a  condition  which,  to  the  extent  practicable,  shall  assure  the  continuance  of  the same in a  condition which does not constitute a menace to the  present  or  future  health or safety of persons, or safety or value of property. In case the  operator  shall  fail  to  put  the premises in a satisfactory condition  prior to any such  abondonment  or  immediately  upon  revocation  of  a  permit,  the  department may do or cause to be done all things necessary  to place the premises in satisfactory condition and the  operator  shall  be liable for the cost.
