2021 New York Laws ENV - Environmental Conservation Article 27 - Collection, Treatment and Disposal of Refuse and Other Solid Waste Title 9 - Industrial Hazardous Waste Management 27-0918 - Closure and Post-Closure Plans.

§ 27-0918. Closure and post-closure plans.1.  Owners and operators of hazardous waste facilities shall submit to   the department for its approval plans for the closure  and  post-closure   monitoring  and  maintenance  of  their  facilities.  The department may   promulgate rules and regulations concerning the contents of such  plans.   Such  regulations  shall  reflect  due consideration of relevant federal   requirements and except where necessary to serve the public interest  or   inconsistent  with  the  purposes  of  this  section,  shall  conform to   relevant federal regulations, but shall in no  case  be  less  stringent   than  such  federal  requirements  and  regulations.  In the case of new   facilities, such plans shall be approved prior to the effective date  of   the  facility's  operating  permit.  In the case of existing facilities,   such plans shall be submitted to the department within six months of the   effective date of  this  section,  and  shall  be  approved,  denied  or   modified by the department within twelve months of submission.2. Together with the submission of a plan for closure and post-closure   monitoring  and  maintenance, the owner or operator of a hazardous waste   facility shall submit to the department for approval a written  estimate   of  the  costs  associated therewith. The estimate of closure costs must   equal the cost of closure at the point in the facility's operating  life   when  the extent and manner of its operation would make closure the most   expensive, as indicated by its closure plan.3. The owner or operator shall prepare new  closure  and  post-closure   monitoring and maintenance cost estimates whenever the department or the   owner  or  operator  determines  that  a change in either the closure or   post-closure monitoring and maintenance requirements affects the cost of   closure or post-closure care respectively.4. One year after the approval of the cost estimates as set  forth  in   subdivision  two  of this section, and annually thereafter until closure   of the facility, the owner or operator  shall  adjust  the  closure  and   post-closure   monitoring  and  maintenance  estimates  to  account  for   inflation.5. All estimates made pursuant to this section and  revisions  thereto   shall be subject to the review and approval of the department.6.   The   department   shall  periodically  review  the  methods  and   instruments  of  financial  assurances  for  permitted  hazardous  waste   facilities  to  determine  whether they are adequate in light of changed   circumstances to insure proper closure and post-closure  monitoring  and   maintenance of such facilities.7.  The provisions of this section relating to post-closure monitoring   and maintenance plans and cost estimates associated therewith shall only   apply to owners and operators of disposal facilities.

2021 New York Laws ENV - Environmental Conservation Article 27 - Collection, Treatment and Disposal of Refuse and Other Solid Waste Title 9 - Industrial Hazardous Waste Management 27-0921 - Short-Term Management.

§ 27-0921. Short-term management.   1.  a.  The  commissioner  shall  immediately  begin  preparation of a proposal for a short-term hazardous waste  management  program  for  the effective  and  safe disposal, treatment and storage of hazardous waste. Such program  shall  be  coordinated  with  the  on-going  comprehensive program for the long-term treatment and disposal of hazardous waste.   b.  As  part of the proposal, a comprehensive study shall be made with regard to the short-term needs of New York state generators of hazardous waste consistent with the protection of public health and safety and the environment and in light of:  (1) federal and state laws, rules and regulations designed  to  ensure proper  disposition  of hazardous waste from generation to final storage or treatment which place substantial  responsibilities  on  industry  to responsibly and safely dispose of hazardous waste;  (2)  the identified shortfall in existing available storage, treatment and disposal capacity, and  the  potential  economic  and  environmental problems  that  may  occur  as  a  result of the potential disruption of operation of the presently  permitted  commercial  industrial  hazardous waste  disposal,  treatment  and storage facilities located in New York; and  (3) the fact that it will take a period  of  several  years  before  a comprehensive  program  for  the  long-term  disposal  and  treatment of hazardous waste is in operation sufficient to replace or reduce  present methods of hazardous waste disposal.   c.  The  proposed  short-term hazardous waste management program shall incorporate the best short-term methods and means available to  contain, store and treat hazardous waste. In preparing the program, consideration shall  be  given to the short-term needs of New York state generators of hazardous waste, to the siting of  secure  landfills  or  other  storage facilities  on  suitable private or state-owned land, to the development and construction of such facilities in a manner to safely allow for  the eventual  retrieval  of  hazardous  waste  for  the  purpose of ultimate destruction, detoxification, or neutralization by  industrial  hazardous waste  treatment  facilities,  to  the  options of public versus private ownership and operation of such facilities, to the  ongoing  efforts  to establish  and  maintain  a  statewide waste exchange system, and to the establishment of incentives to encourage  reduction  of  the  amount  of hazardous waste generated.   2.  Not  later  than  January  first, nineteen hundred eighty-two, the commissioner shall submit to the legislature the study and the  proposal for a short-term hazardous waste management program required pursuant to subdivision  one  of  this  section, including any proposed implementing legislation and rules and regulations where appropriate.

§ 27-0926. Use  and recycling of elemental mercury and dental amalgam bydentists.1. No dentist shall use or possess elemental mercury in  the  practice   of  dentistry  unless such elemental mercury is contained in appropriate   pre-encapsulated capsules specifically designed for the mixing of dental   amalgam.

2021 New York Laws ENV - Environmental Conservation Article 27 - Collection, Treatment and Disposal of Refuse and Other Solid Waste Title 10 - Litter and Solid Waste Control 27-1001 - Legislative Findings.

§ 27-1001. Legislative findings.The  legislature  hereby  finds  that  litter  composed  of  discarded   beverage containers is a growing problem of state concern and  a  direct   threat to the health and safety of the citizens of this state. Discarded   beverage  containers  create  a hazard to vehicular traffic, a source of   physical injury to pedestrians and farm animals, a hazard  to  farm  and   other  machinery  and  an unsightly accumulation of litter which must be   disposed of at  increasing  public  expense.  Beverage  containers  also   create  an  unnecessary  addition  to  the  state's  and municipalities'   already  overburdened  solid  waste   and   refuse   disposal   systems.   Unsegregated  disposal  of  such containers creates an impediment to the   efficient  operation  of  resource   recovery   plants.   Further,   the   legislature  finds  that  the uninhibited discard of beverage containers   constitutes  a  waste  of  both  mineral  and  energy   resources.   The   legislature  hereby  finds  that  requiring  a  deposit  on all beverage   containers, along with certain other facilitating measures, will provide   a necessary incentive for the economically efficient and environmentally   benign collection and recycling of such containers.

A  dealer  or operator of a redemption center may refuse to accept   from a redeemer, and a deposit initiator or distributor  may  refuse  to   accept  from  a  dealer  or  operator  of  a redemption center any empty   beverage container which does  not  state  thereon  a  refund  value  as   established  by  section 27-1005 and provided by section 27-1011 of this   title.2. A dealer or operator of a redemption  center  may  also  refuse  to   accept any broken bottle, corroded, crushed or dismembered container, or   any  beverage  container  which contains a significant amount of foreign   material, as determined in rules and regulations to  be  promulgated  by   the commissioner.
