(B) a request for no further action that is based on meeting state standards or risk-based cleanup goals; or
(ii) provides for a phased approach to investigation of the full vertical and horizontal extent of contamination and cleanup of hazardous wastes and constituents, as necessary, based on state standards or risk-based cleanup goals.
(d) Corrective Action Plans approved under this section:
(1) shall specify the date they become effective;
(2) shall specify actions the applicant must take to comply with the closure or corrective action requirements of Part 264 or 265, as appropriate, and a schedule for implementing such actions; and
(3) may designate corrective action management units or temporary units under § § 264.551, 264.552 or 264.553, in accordance with § 100.21(e);
(e) Corrective Action Plans approved under this section are subject to the provisions of § 100.32.
(f) Corrective Action Plans approved under this section do not authorize any action that requires a permit under this Part for the treatment, storage, or disposal of hazardous waste.
(g) Corrective Action Plans approved under this section, and any determinations that the Department makes pursuant thereto, are requirements of Part 3 of the Act, and are subject to appeal pursuant to the provisions of § 25-15-305, C.R.S.
(h) Corrective Action Plans approved under this section do not excuse, nor constitute a defense to, any prior violation of the Act or the Regulations. Approval of a Corrective Action Plan under this section does not impair the Department's ability to take any other appropriate action (including issuing or modifying permits or orders) regarding releases of hazardous wastes or hazardous constituents that are not addressed in the Corrective Action Plan.
