Before you search
Start with the right identifiers.
Millburn or Short Hills property address, block and lot, approximate tank-work year, and any SDL permit number.
Bring what you have. Missing identifiers can be part of the route review.01
Start with the Township's permit link
Millburn's records instructions point to SDL for building permits and a separate property-card resource. Match the property first and preserve any permit number and displayed status.
The same instructions direct records requests to NextRequest, where the account shows requests, status, communications, and provided records. Preserve the request number. Account confirmation or an email receipt is not document delivery.
Our review compares the supplied work description and final inspection against the original permit entry. If a state environmental reference appears, follow it separately; unresolved differences remain in the brief.
A property-matched record trail showing what each document actually establishes.
Permit or index
Compare parcel/address, issuer, reference and the proposed work.
Still missing? Permission to do work is not evidence that the work was completed.
Completion evidence
Compare inspection date, tank location and removal versus abandonment wording.
Still missing? Keep a seller's statement or invoice separate from the agency's completion record.
Remaining scope
List environmental references, missing attachments and the exact scope of any no-record reply.
Still missing? Stop calling the search complete while an applicable source or attachment remains unresolved.

Your private record worksheet
Keep the next step clear.
Prepare search keys here, open the official sources above, then record what happened. Nothing is searched or sent automatically. A postal city or ZIP does not establish legal jurisdiction.
Suggested document scope for this route: the tank-related permit, final inspection and removal or abandonment completion documents. Narrow this to the files you still need.
Your next actions
Start with the identifiers and first applicable source. An online blank, an inaccessible portal and an agency no-record reply are three different outcomes.
No result is not proof of no tank. A candidate document still needs its property, issuer, dates and stated scope checked.
Review and edit bracketed fields after copying. Use the agency’s current official form, disclosures and fee instructions. Drafted ≠ sent ≠ acknowledged ≠ delivered.
Default: this tab’s session only. Device saving is optional; avoid it on shared devices. No property details enter the page URL or analytics.
Optional human research is available for NJ/NY, subject to intake review. The worksheet is separate and is not attached automatically.
Make the request specific
A ready-to-adapt outline.
Please provide the underlying tank-work permit, final inspection, and completion documents for [Millburn/Short Hills address; block/lot], SDL reference [number], approximately [dates].
Replace the bracketed fields and follow the agency’s current form, disclosure, and fee instructions. This is a draft, not a sent request.
Keep the limits visible.
A portal status does not establish what happened to every tank. Short Hills is included in this Township research route, not presented as a separate verified records system.
Send the property and your question. First, we confirm whether we can help and which records to pursue. You do not need an existing file to get started.
Cost
Free during the founder-led beta. Any agency fees are identified separately before a paid request.
First response
Initial route review target: 2 business days—not a final report deadline.
Your records
Private intake. No public case pages.
We confirm the scope and any request authorization before agency outreach. Agency timing varies; a record may be unavailable. Research is not a safety certification or legal opinion.
