| Description | The Department of Ecology is proposing to amend Chapter 173-351 WAC Criteria for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills. Chapter 173-351 WAC applies to publicly or privately owned Municipal Solid Waste Landfill (MSWLF) units that may be a new MSWLF unit, an existing MSWLF unit, or a lateral expansion. The proposed rule would: *Adopt new federal regulations and allow for issuance of Research, Development and Demonstration (RD&D) permits. *Eliminate equivalent and arid liner designs and extend greater flexibility for alternate liner designs consistent with federal regulations. *Eliminate arid closure cover design criteria.*Add requirements for owners/operators to file an environmental covenant at closure in accordance with Chapter 64.70 RCW, Uniform Environmental Covenants Act. *Adopt new post-closure care period standards, which are based on potential risk to human and environmental receptors. *Add alternative borehole program approval requirements to ensure quality characterization of the geology and hydrogeology of a site. *Include prevailing wage law provisions for financial assurance for closure. *Address “general housekeeping” issues such as clarify definitions, make formatting changes, and ensure that the rule would be consistent with WAC 173-350, Solid Waste Handling Standards. |
