Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
The engineering report must contain, at a minimum:
(a) A site description and analysis of the
					 proposed facility including the following:
(1) A
					 brief description of the type and amount of waste, in tons, accepted by the
					 facility, specifying the anticipated maximum amount of wastes to be accepted on a
					 daily and annual basis, including those wastes anticipated to be accepted for use
					 as alternative operating cover, the anticipated maximum in-place density of waste
					 to be placed in the landfill, and the proposed maximum amount of waste and
					 alternative operating cover that will be placed in the landfill.
(2) A description of the number, types and
					 specifications of all machinery and equipment needed to effectively operate the
					 facility at the proposed rate of waste acceptance, and all proposed structures
					 and areas designated for unloading, processing, sorting, storage, and
					 loading.
(3) A description of the
					 materials and construction methods that demonstrate compliance with the
					 requirements in Subpart 363-6 of this Part and are used for the placement of:
(i) each monitoring well pursuant to the
					 requirements of section
					 363-4.4(k)  of this
					 Part;
(ii) the landfill gas
					 management system;
(iii) the leachate
					 conveyance, storage, treatment and disposal system;
(iv) the cover system; and
(v) the liner and leachate collection and
					 removal system. The description must also include the precautions that will be
					 taken to prevent frost action upon the composite liner system in areas where
					 waste will not be placed within one year of department approval of construction
					 certification;
(4) A
					 description of post-construction care measures to be taken to ensure that the
					 construction materials noted in paragraph (3) of this subdivision meet the
					 specifications and comply with the requirements of Subpart 363-6 of this Part
					 from the time of construction completion to the beginning of landfill
					 operation.
(5) A comprehensive and
					 detailed description of each of the following features of the operation of the
					 landfill gas management system:
(i) a
					 year-by-year estimate of the quantities of landfill gas that will be generated
					 during the active life and post-closure care period, including a year-by-year
					 estimate of greenhouse gas emissions;
(ii) how landfill gas will be
					 managed;
(iii) how any landfill gas
					 condensate generation will be minimized, disposed, and/or recirculated into the
					 landfill waste mass;
(iv) all
					 machinery, equipment, and construction materials to be used at the facility,
					 including the equipment design capacity;
(v) how the landfill gas management system will
					 be designed, constructed and maintained so as not to interfere with the integrity
					 of the proposed or existing landfill final cover system; and
(vi) a description of how the landfill gas
					 management system will effectively control landfill decomposition gas-related
					 odors.
