				effectiveness of the final cover as well as other appurtenances of the
				facility, control erosion, fill subsidences, comply with the water quality
				monitoring plan, maintain the leachate collection system, measure volumes of
				leachate removed, and maintain the stormwater system, in accordance with an
				approved closure plan for 30 years from the official date of closing. Before
				the expiration of the long-term care monitoring and maintenance period, the
				Department may extend the time period if the closure design or closure
				operation plan is found to be ineffective, or if the permittee has not
				performed all required monitoring and maintenance. For purposes of this
				subsection, "ineffective" means that:
(a) The
				water quality monitoring system indicates that the landfill continues to impact
				ground water or surface water at concentrations that may be expected to result
				in violations of Department water quality standards or criteria;
(b) The gas monitoring system indicates that
				the landfill continues to produce gas in amounts that may be expected to exceed
				the concentrations of combustible gases allowed in paragraph
				 62-701.530(1)(a),
				F.A.C.;
(c) Significant subsidence
				of waste has not ceased, or
(d) The
				final cover does not have well established vegetation or is showing signs of

Current through Reg. 50, No. 138; July 16, 2024
(1) Applicability.
(a) No person shall construct, operate or
				close an off-site construction and demolition debris disposal facility without
				a permit issued by the Department. All holders of construction or operation
				permits issued prior to January 6, 2010, that contain conditions not in
				conformance with this chapter shall apply for modification of the permit to
				conform to this chapter to the District Office of the Department that issued
				the permit. The submission shall occur at the time of application for renewal
				of an existing permit, or before July 5, 2010, whichever is earlier. For
				purposes of this paragraph, a permit issued prior to January 6, 2010, is deemed
				to include a completed permit application received by the Department prior to
				January 6, 2010. However, the provisions of paragraph (4)(d) of this rule, will
				not apply to any disposal units of a facility that have received a Department
				permit authorizing construction or operation prior to January 6,
				2010.
(b) After the applicable
				compliance deadline specified above, facilities shall operate only in
				accordance with the provisions of this section. However, any disposal unit that
				received a significant amount of waste in accordance with the conditions of its
				permit prior to the applicable compliance deadline is not required to comply
				with any siting or construction design requirements of this chapter that were
				not in effect prior to the applicable compliance deadline. For purposes of this
				subsection:
1. A "significant amount of waste"
				means that the disposal unit has received sufficient waste for disposal, in
				accordance with its normal operational plan, so that it is impractical to
				remove that waste or to relocate or reconstruct the disposal unit.
2. "Siting or construction design
				requirements" do not include the hydrogeological investigation required by
				subparagraph  62-701.730(2)(a)

Florida Administrative Code › 62 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › 62 - Departmental › Chapter 62-709 - CRITERIA FOR ORGANICS PROCESSING AND RECYCLING FACILITIES › Section 62-709.305 - Exemptions

Current through Reg. 50, No. 138; July 16, 2024
The following activities do not require a permit or
				  registration under this chapter provided no public nuisance or any condition
				  adversely affecting the environment or public health is created and the
				  activity does not violate other state or local laws, ordinances, rules,
				  regulations, or orders.
(1) Backyard
				composting and the resulting compost.
(2) Normal farming operations. For purposes
				of this chapter, the following will be considered normal farming:
(a) Composting or anaerobic digestion of
				wastes generated on the farm, as part of agronomic, horticultural or
				silvicultural operations, for use on the farm, as part of agronomic,
				horticultural or silvicultural operations;
(b) Composting of wastes generated on the
				farm, as part of agronomic, horticultural or silvicultural operations, for sale
				or use off the farm; although no permit is required, the generator must meet
				the requirements of Rules
				 62-709.530 through
				 62-709.600, F.A.C., for any
				compost that is sold for use by persons other than the generator;
(c) Composting or anaerobic digestion of yard
				trash, manure, or vegetative wastes generated from off the farm, for use on the
				farm, as part of agronomic, horticultural or silvicultural
				operations;
(d) Composting of yard
				trash, manure, or vegetative wastes generated from off the farm, for sale or
				use off the farm; although no permit is required, the generator must meet the
				requirements of Rules
				 62-709.530 through
				 62-709.600, F.A.C., for any
				compost that is sold for use by persons other than the generator. For this
				exemption to apply, the yard trash, manure, or vegetative wastes brought to the
				farm must be necessary to optimize composting of the yard trash or manure
				generated on the farm, as part of agronomic, horticultural or silvicultural
				operations (e.g., bringing in yard trash as a source of carbon and pile
				structure) to optimize composting of manure generated on the farm). Yard trash,
				vegetative wastes, or manure which is brought to the farm solely to increase
				the amount of compost produced is not considered to be part of the agronomic,
				horticultural or silvicultural operations at the farm and is not covered by
				this exemption, except as provided for in paragraph (e), below; and,
(e) Manure management operations that are
				regulated under Chapter 62-670, F.A.C., as concentrated animal feeding
				operations (CAFO) or animal feeding operations (AFO). If the facility is
				permitted, this includes manure received from off-site as well as generated
				on-site when the facility permit addresses these waste
