Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a)
				  The owner or operator of landfill units subject to section
				  66265.301(a)
				  shall submit a proposed action leakage rate to the Department when submitting
				  the notice required under section
				  66265.301(b). The
				  Department will establish an action leakage rate, either as proposed by the
				  owner or operator or modified using the criteria in this section.
(b) The Department shall approve an action
				  leakage rate for landfill units subject to section
				  66265.301(a). The
				  action leakage rate is the maximum design flow rate that the leak detection
				  system (LDS) can remove without the fluid pressure head on the bottom liner
				  exceeding 1 foot (30.5 cm) at any given portion of the liner. The action
				  leakage rate shall include an adequate safety margin to allow for uncertainties
				  in the design (e.g., slope, hydraulic conductivity, thickness of drainage
				  material), construction, operation, and location of the LDS, waste and leachate
				  characteristics, likelihood and amounts of other sources of liquids in the LDS,
				  and proposed response actions (e.g., the action leakage rate shall consider
				  decreases in the flow capacity of the system over time resulting from siltation
				  and clogging, rib layover and creep of synthetic components of the system,
				  overburden pressures, etc.).
(c) To
				  determine if the action leakage rate has been exceeded, the owner or operator
				  shall convert the weekly or monthly flow rate from the monitoring data obtained
				  under section
				  66265.304 to an average daily flow
				  rate (gallons per acre per day) for each sump. Unless the Department approves a
				  different calculation, the average daily flow rate for each sump shall be
				  calculated weekly during the active life and closure period, and monthly during
				  the post-closure care period when monthly monitoring is required under section
				  66265.304(b).

				  plan shall set forth the actions to be taken if the action leakage rate has
				  been exceeded. At a minimum, the response action plan shall describe the
				  actions specified in subsection (b) of this section.
(b) If the flow rate into the leak detection
				  system exceeds the action leakage rate for any sump, the owner or operator
				  shall:
(1) Notify the Department in writing
				  of the exceedence within 7 days of the determination;
(2) Submit a preliminary written assessment
				  to the Department within 14 days of the determination, as to the amount of
				  liquids, likely sources of liquids, possible location, size, and cause of any
				  leaks, and short-term actions taken and planned;
(3) Determine to the extent practicable the
				  location, size, and cause of any leak;
(4) Determine whether waste receipt should
				  cease or be curtailed, whether any waste should be removed from the unit for
				  inspection, repairs, or controls, and whether or not the unit should be
				  closed;
(5) Determine any other
				  short-term and longer-term actions to be taken to mitigate or stop any leaks;
				  and
(6) Within 30 days after the
				  notification that the action leakage rate has been exceeded, submit to the
				  Department the results of the analyses specified in subsections (b)(3), (4) and
				  (5) of this section, the results of actions taken, and actions planned. Monthly
				  thereafter, as long as the flow rate in the leak detection system exceeds the
				  action leakage rate, the owner or operator shall submit to the Department a

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) An owner or operator required to have a
				  leak detection system under section
				  66265.301(a)
				  shall record the amount of liquids removed from each leak detection system sump
				  at least once each week during the active life and closure period.
(b) After the final cover is installed, the
				  amount of liquids removed from each leak detection system sump shall be
				  recorded at least monthly. If the liquid level in the sump stays below the pump
				  operating level for two consecutive months, the amount of liquids in the sumps
				  shall be recorded at least quarterly. If the liquid level in the sump stays
				  below the pump operating level for two consecutive quarters, the amount of
				  liquids in the sumps shall be recorded at least semi-annually. If at any time
				  during the post-closure care period the pump operating level is exceeded at
				  units on quarterly or semi-annual recording schedules, the owner or operator
				  shall return to monthly recording of amounts of liquids removed from each sump
				  until the liquid level again stays below the pump operating level for two
				  consecutive months.
(c) "Pump
				  operating level" is a liquid level proposed by the owner or operator and
				  approved by the Department based on pump activation level, sump dimensions, and
				  level that avoids backup into the drainage layer and minimizes head in the
				  sump. The timing for submission and approval of the proposed "pump operating
				  level" will be in accordance with Section
				  66265.302(a).
