  Chairman McNutt invited Carol Eighmey to report on recent releases from insured AST systems.
  ...
  Ms. Eighmey noted 13 such claims had been filed in FY07, seven of which involved identifiable leaks or spills.She gave a presentation summarizing the cause of loss for those seven claims and showing pictures of the releases and some of the cleanups.
  ...
  Ms. Eighmey reviewed discussions and actions taken over the last year in an effort to better quantify the Fund's risk for cleanup of tank sites where the tanks were taken out of use by December 31, 1997.She summarized a memorandum provided in their notebooks, noting more than 2000 properties had been identified where regulated USTs were once registered with the DNR, were subsequently taken out of use, and no NFA has been issued.She suggested an effort be undertaken to contact the owners of these properties prior to the Fund's sunset date, since they are subject to regulatory action concerning the former USTs, and asked the Trustees for direction on whether and how to proceed.
  
  Considerable discussion followed.There was general consensus that an effort should be made to contact all such property owners.Various people questioned what percentage of the property would respond to a mailing, noting that if there is substantial response it would create additional workload for both the PSTIF staff and the DNR Tanks Section.Ms. Eighmey explained that county officials will have to be contacted to obtain names and addresses of the current owners of the properties, which will take some time.

  "We needed good information that could be economically delivered on a state-wide basis," said Carol Eighmey, executive director of PSTIF.
  
  "When the PSTIF Board reviewed the Petroleum Equipment Institute's (PEI) online Learning Center, we knew we had our answer," she continued."PEI is the leading authority on petroleum equipment, so we know the information is right.The courses are offered via the Internet,so they are available everywhere on demand," says Eighmey.Educating underground fuel tank owners and operators about the management of their storage systems is a national issue.Missouri is the first state to tackle the problem by offering training directly to the people who need it.After reviewing PEI's courses, the PSTIF Board of Trustees agreed to purchase courses in bulk and offer them free to insured tank owners."If we succeed in preventing only one gasoline leak, we will more than make up the cost of providing the courses," says Eighmey.

  Ms. Eighmey then commented briefly on other bills of interest described in the Trustees' notebooks, including the appropriations bills that authorize spending from the PSTIF.
  
  Record Retention Schedule Ms. Eighmey explained that the PSTIF, as a state agency, is allowed to store files in the State Archives, which is managed by the Missouri Secretary of State.In order to do this, however, she said a record retention schedule for the Board's various types of files must first be submitted to and approved by the State Records Commission.Ms. Eighmey referenced the draft schedule in the Trustees' notebooks and asked Trustees for comments on how long the Fund's underwriting and claims files should be retained.
  
  Some Trustees opined the records should be kept indefinitely.Others asked whether the records can be scanned and stored digitally.Ms. Eighmey noted that about ¼ of the documents being received by Williams & Company Consulting for insurance renewals are being submitted in electronic form, and that Williams has recently initiated some scanning and electronic document storage procedures for their claims staff; she noted Williams' focus is on scanning and storing new documents, and commented that the Board's 15 years of historical records also are creating a storage challenge.
  
  Trustees suggested Ms. Eighmey undertake some research to determine what would be involved in scanning the PSTIF's historical records, noting that costs to scan documents would be offset, to some degree, by the savings in storing paper records for many years.
