				  waste in landfills, except as otherwise provided in COMAR
				  26.13.05.01, the permit applicant
				  shall provide the following information:
(1)
				  A list of the hazardous wastes placed or to be placed in each landfill or
				  landfill cell;
(2) A detailed plan
				  and an engineering report that:
(a) Describe
				  how the landfill is or will be designed, constructed, operated, and maintained
				  to comply with the requirements of COMAR
				  26.13.05.02-2 and 14B;
				  and
(b) Provide information on the
				  following items as specified in COMAR
				  26.13.05.14B:
(i) The liner system and leachate collection
				  and removal system, except for an existing portion of landfill;
(ii) If an exemption from the requirements
				  for a liner and a leachate collection and removal system is sought as provided
				  by COMAR 26.13.05.14B(2) or
				  (4), detailed plans and engineering
				  hydrogeologic reports as appropriate, describing alternate design and operating
				  practices that will, in conjunction with location aspects, prevent the
				  migration of any hazardous constituents into the ground water or surface water
				  at any future time;
(iii) Control
				  of run-on;
(iv) Control of
				  run-off;
(v) Management of
				  collection and holding facilities associated with run-on and run-off control
				  systems; and
(vi) Control of wind
				  dispersal of particulate matter, when applicable;
(3) A description of how each landfill,
				  including the double liner system, leachate collection and removal system, leak
				  detection system, cover system, and appurtenances for control of run-on and
				  run-off will be inspected in order to meet the requirements of COMAR
				  26.13.05.14C(1) -
				  (4) as part of the inspection plan submitted
				  under Regulation .02D(19) of this chapter;
(4) Detailed plans and an engineering report
				  describing the final cover which will be applied to each landfill or landfill
				  cell at closure in accordance with COMAR
				  26.13.05.14J(1),
				  and a description of how each landfill will be maintained and monitored after
				  closure in accordance with COMAR
				  26.13.05.14J(2)
				  as part of the closure and post-closure plans submitted under Regulation
				  .02D(29) of this chapter;
(5) If
				  food-chain crops are to be grown, and cadmium is present in the land treated
				  waste, a description of how the requirements of COMAR
				  26.13.05.13G(5)
				  will be complied with;
(6) A
				  description of the vegetative cover to be applied to closed portions of the
				  facility, and a plan for maintaining the cover during the post-closure care
				  period, as required under COMAR
				  26.13.05.13K(1)(h) and
				  (3)(b). This information should be included
				  in the closure plan and, when applicable, the post-closure care plan submitted
				  under Regulation .02D(29) of this chapter;
(7) If ignitable or reactive wastes will be
				  placed in or on the treatment zone, an explanation of how the requirements of
				  COMAR 26.13.05.13L will
				  be complied with;
(8) A waste
				  management plan for EPA Hazardous Waste Nos. F020, F021, F022, F023, F026, and
				  F027 that:
(a) Describes how a landfill is or
				  will be designed, constructed, operated, and maintained to meet the
				  requirements of COMAR
				  26.13.05.14P;
				  and
(b) Addresses the:
(i) Volume, physical characteristics, and
				  chemical characteristics of the wastes, including their potential to migrate
				  through soil or to volatilize or escape into the atmosphere;
(ii) Attenuative properties of underlying and
				  surrounding soils or other materials;
(iii) Mobilizing properties of other
				  materials co-disposed with these wastes; and
(iv) Effectiveness of additional treatment,
				  design, or monitoring techniques;
(9) If the leak detection system is located
				  in a saturated zone, detailed plans and an engineering report explaining the
				  leak detection system's design and operation, and the location of the saturated
				  zone in relation to the leak detection system;
(10) The construction quality assurance plan
				  required by COMAR
				  26.13.05.02-2;
(11) If required under COMAR
				  26.13.05.14E, a
				  proposed action leakage rate with rationale and supporting information;
				  and
(12) If required under COMAR
				  26.13.05.14F, a
				  response action plan.
