Illinois Administrative Code › Title 35 - ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › Part 724 - STANDARDS FOR OWNERS AND OPERATORS OF HAZARDOUS WASTE TREATMENT, STORAGE, AND DISPOSAL FACILITIES › Subpart H - FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS › Section 724.242 - Cost Estimate for Closure

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) The
				owner or operator must have detailed a written estimate, in current dollars, of
				the cost of closing the facility in accordance with the requirements in
				Sections
				724.211
				through
				724.215
				and applicable closure requirements in Sections
				724.278,
				724.297,
				724.328,
				724.358,
				724.380,
				724.410,
				724.451,
				724.701
				through
				724.703, and
				724.1102.
1) The estimate must equal the cost of final
				closure at the point in the facility's active life when the extent and manner
				of its operation would make closure the most expensive, as indicated by its
				closure plan (see Section
				724.212(b)
				).
2) The closure cost estimate
				must be based on the costs to the owner or operator of hiring a third party to
				close the facility. A third party is a party who is neither a parent nor a
				subsidiary of the owner or operator. (See definition of parent corporation in
				Section
				724.241(d).)
				The owner or operator may use costs for on-site disposal if the owner or
				operator demonstrates that on-site disposal capacity will exist at all times
				over the life of the facility.
3)
				The closure cost estimate must not incorporate any salvage value that may be
				realized with the sale of hazardous wastes, or non-hazardous wastes if
				permitted by the Agency pursuant to Section
				724.213(d),
				facility structures or equipment, land, or other assets associated with the
				facility at the time of partial or final closure.
4) The owner or operator must not incorporate
				a zero cost for hazardous wastes, or non-hazardous wastes if permitted by the
				Agency pursuant to Section
				724.213(d),
				that might have economic value.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) The owner or operator of a disposal
				surface impoundment, disposal miscellaneous unit, land treatment unit, or
				landfill unit or the owner or operator of a surface impoundment or waste pile
				required under Sections
				724.328
				or
				724.358
				to prepare a contingent closure and post-closure plan must have a defined
				written estimate, in current dollars, of the annual cost of post-closure
				monitoring and maintenance of the facility in accordance with the applicable
				post-closure regulations in Sections
				724.217
				through
				724.220,
				724.328, 724.358, 724.380, 724.410, and 724.703.
1) The post-closure cost estimate must be
				based on the costs to the owner or operator of hiring a third party to conduct
				post-closure care activities. A third party is a party who is neither a parent
				nor a subsidiary of the owner or operator. (See definition of parent
				corporation in Section
				724.241(d)
				).
2) The post-closure cost
				estimate is calculated by multiplying the annual post-closure cost estimate by
				the number of years of post-closure care required under Section
				724.217.
