A list of Leaking Petroleum Storage Tank (LPST) sites in Texas, maintained by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. It includes site location, PST Registration ID, the date each site was reported, and its closure date if applicable. The dataset was last updated in February 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze the time-to-closure duration for sites by comparing the report date and closure date fields.
• Map the geographic distribution of LPST sites using the provided location information to identify regional contamination patterns.
• Track the operational status of sites by filtering on the closure date to separate active from remediated cases.
• Correlate site data with PST Registration ID numbers to link incidents with specific registered storage tank facilities.

Strengths

• Data is current, with a last update timestamp of February 2026.
• Includes key temporal fields for tracking site lifecycle: report date and closure date.
• Provides specific location information for spatial analysis of environmental incidents.
• Managed by the authoritative state environmental agency, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.

Limitations

• The total number of records (rows) and specific data fields (columns) are not documented.
• Data completeness for the closure date field is unknown, potentially limiting analysis of remediation outcomes.
• The license is listed as 'notspecified', which may create uncertainty for commercial or redistribution use.
