				the action leakage rate must 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.).
b) To determine if the action leakage rate
				has been exceeded, the owner or operator must convert the weekly or monthly
				flow rate from the monitoring data obtained under Section
				724.403(c)
				to an average daily flow rate (gallons per acre per day) for each sump. The
				average daily flow rate for each sump must be calculated weekly during the
				active life and closure period and monthly during the post-closure care period,
				unless the Agency approves a different frequency pursuant to Section
				724.403(c)(2).

2) Submit a preliminary written assessment to
				the Agency 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 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
				Agency the results of the determinations specified in subsections (b)(3),
				(b)(4), and (b)(5), the results of actions taken, and actions planned. Monthly
