My response:

First of all, you haven't given us enough information on the tanks.

Second, what does this have to do with "Buying and Selling a Home"? That's the forum you're on.

Third, when you posed this question, with ALL of your known information and facts, to the EPA, what did they tell you?

Yes lots of them, most old dry cleaners with underground storage tanks have at least some contamination.

The cost to clean up can be as little as a few tens of thousands and as much as many millions. The average is over $100k. Talk to the North Carolina Department of Environmental and Natural Resources about it. If you are concerned about revealing your identity or problems they will usually talk to you on an anonymous basis.

Unless you are in a Superfund site the EPA will not govern this.

Good luck
