Virginia Administrative Code › Title 9 - ENVIRONMENT › Agency 20 - VIRGINIA WASTE MANAGEMENT BOARD › Chapter 81 - SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS › Part V - Permitting of Solid Waste Management Facilities › Section 9VAC20-81-470 - Part B permit application for solid waste disposal facilities.

Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
Part B permit application requirements for all solid waste
					 disposal facilities regulated under Part III (9VAC20-81-100 et seq.) are
					 contained in this section. The Part B applications shall include the following
					 requirements and documentation:
A.
				  Plans submitted as part of the Part B application shall include the following:
1. Design plans. Design plans shall be
				  certified by a professional engineer and shall consist of, at least, the
				  following:
a. A title sheet indicating the
				  project title, who prepared the plans, the person for whom the plans were
				  prepared, a table of contents, and a location map showing the location of the
				  site and the area to be served.
b.
				  An existing site conditions plans sheet indicating site conditions prior to
				  development.
c. A base grade plan
				  sheet indicating site base grades or the appearance of the site if it were
				  excavated in its entirety to the base elevation, before installation of any
				  engineering modifications or the beginning of any filing.
d. An engineering modification plan sheet
				  indicating the appearance of the site after installation of engineering
				  modifications. More than one plan sheet may be required for complicated sites.
				  This plan is required only for those sites with engineering
				  modifications.
e. A final site
				  topography plan sheet indicating the appearance of the site, and final contours
				  of the site at closing including the details necessary to prepare the site for
				  long-term care.
f. A series of
				  phasing plan sheets showing the progression of site development through time.
				  At a minimum, a separate plan shall be provided for initial site preparations
				  and for each subsequent major phase or new area where substantial site
				  preparation must be performed. Each such plan shall include a list of
				  construction items and quantities necessary to prepare the phase
				  indicated.
g. A site monitoring
				  plan showing the location of all devices for the monitoring of leachate
				  production, groundwater quality, and gas production and venting. This plan
				  shall include a table indicating the parameters to be monitored for the
				  frequency of monitoring before and during site development. The groundwater
				  monitoring plan shall include information as applicable under
				  9VAC20-81-250 or
				  9VAC20-81-260.
h. A series of site cross-sections shall be
				  drawn perpendicular and parallel to the site base line at a maximum distance of
				  500 feet between cross-sections and at points of grade break and important
				  construction features. The location of the cross-sections shall be shown on the
				  plan sheets and the section labeled using the site grid system. Where
				  applicable, each cross-section shall show existing, proposed base and final
				  grades; soil borings and monitoring wells that the section passes through or is
				  adjacent to; soil types, bedrock and water table; leachate control, collection,
				  and monitoring systems; limits of filling for each major waste type; drainage
				  control structures; access roads and ramps on the site perimeter and within the
				  active fill area; the filling sequence or phases; and other site
				  features.
i. Detailed drawings and
				  typical sections for drainage control structures, access roads, fencing,
				  leachate and gas control systems, and monitoring devices, buildings, signs, and
				  other construction details.
j. Plan
				  sheets shall include:
(1) A survey grid with
				  base lines and bench marks to be used for field control.
(2) Limits of filling for each major waste
				  type or fill area.
(3) All drainage
				  patterns and surface water drainage control structures both within the actual
				  fill area and at the site perimeter. Such structures may include berms,
				  ditches, sedimentation basins, pumps, sumps, culverts, pipes, inlets, velocity
				  breaks, sodding, erosion matting, or other methods of erosion
				  control.
(4) Ground surface
				  contours at the time represented by the drawing. Spot elevations shall be
				  indicated for key features.
(5)
				  Areas to be cleared and grubbed and stripped of topsoil.
(6) Borrow areas for liner materials, gas
				  venting materials, berms, roadway construction, daily cover, and final
				  cover.
(7) All soil stockpiles
				  including daily and final cover, topsoil, liner materials, gas venting
				  materials, and other excavation.
(8) Access roads and traffic flow patterns to
				  and within the active fill area.
(9) All temporary and permanent
				  fencing.
(10) The methods of
				  screening such as berms, vegetation, or special fencing.
(11) Leachate collection, control, storage,
				  and treatment systems that may include pipes, manholes, trenches, berms,
				  collection sumps, storage units, pumps, risers, liners, and liner
				  splices.
(12) Gas, leachate, and
				  groundwater monitoring devices and systems.
(13) Severe weather solid waste disposal
				  areas.
(14) Support buildings,
				  scale, utilities, gates, and signs.
(15) Special waste handling areas.
(16) Construction notes and references to
				  details.
(17) Other site
				  features.
