Section 21790 - CIWMB-Preliminary Closure Plan Contents
(a) The purpose of the preliminary plan is to provide a basis for the operator to establish a preliminary estimate of closure costs certified for accuracy by a registered civil engineer or certified engineering geologist, and enable the CIWMB to assess the reasonableness of the cost estimate for non-water quality aspects of closure.
(b) The plan shall identify the steps necessary to perform either partial final closure, in accordance with § 21120, or complete landfill closure and shall include, but is not limited to, the following information:
(1) a closure cost estimate pursuant to §§ 21815 and 21820;

(4) a location map of the current monitoring and control systems including: leachate control and drainage and erosion control systems as required pursuant to chapter 3 (§ 20180 et seq.); landfill gas monitoring and control systems as required pursuant to chapter 3 (§ 20180 et seq.);
(5) a description of proposed postclosure land uses;
(6) an estimate of the maximum extent of the landfill that will ever require closure at any given time during the life of the landfill;
(7) an estimate of the closure date based on volumetric calculations, including supporting documentation. The estimate shall account for the effects of settlement and for volume occupied by daily cover material; and
