Section Summary Section 2.7 definition is amended to provide that all solid waste facilities must meet the requirements of this rule. The current rule provides that the DEP can provide exceptions to this requirement. This language is removed. These facilities now include facilities where the solid waste is generated, and does not include facilities where the owner composts only his or her own waste. Section 3.7 is amended to insert criteria that the DEP is to consider when establishing the monthly tonnage limits for solid waste land fills.
Major modifications require preparation of a draft permit and public notice and input.
Several of these criteria have been deleted or modified. Two definitions are added to Section 3.18.b.2.I . 3.E is inserted into the rule and provides that the DEP may establish surface impoundments for solid waste facilities. These liners must be at least as stringent as liner requirements for the disposal cell areas of the facility. Section 4.8.,d.2 is amended to change the testing requirement for leachate at landfills from quarterly to semiannually.
