Section 444.731 - Minimum standards; reduction or waiver of requirements1. Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2 and 3, each Class III site must comply with the standards for location, design, construction, operation and maintenance set forth in NAC 444.733 to 444.747, inclusive.2. A solid waste management authority may adopt less restrictive standards for a Class III site which receives waste material which is inert or unlikely to create an environmental hazard or threaten the health of the general public.3. A solid waste management authority may waive the requirements for a Class III site if the owner or operator of that site demonstrates that:(a) All waste which is placed in the landfill is incidental to his or her industrial operation;(b) The landfill is located on property controlled by the operator of the industrial operation; and(c) The landfill will not receive any hazardous materials and is unlikely to produce pollutants or contaminants that may degrade waters of the State.4. An owner or operator who applies for a waiver must submit a plan to the solid waste management authority for approval. The plan must include:(a) A description of the type and estimated amount of material which will be placed in the landfill; and(b) A program for the maintenance of the site.5. As used in this section, "hazardous material" has the meaning ascribed to it in NRS 459.7024.Nev. Admin. Code § 444.731
