Section 61-107.4.III.I - Additional Requirements for Permitted Facilities

1. The Department may impose more stringent requirements than those outlined herein when additional measures are necessary, on a case-by-case basis, to protect public health and the environment from any potentially adverse effects. These requirements include, but are not limited to:

a. Analysis of individual feedstocks to identify any characteristics that may require special management or permit conditions;

b. Feedstock selection; the Department may determine on a case-by-case basis that a material shall not be used as feedstock due to its pollutant content or concentration, the material variability from the source, or its potential for creating adverse environmental effects;

c. Testing frequency and parameters;

d. Location, design, and operating criteria;

e. Monitoring and reporting, including but not limited to, monitoring of groundwater, surface water, soil, plant tissue, feedstocks and/or finished products;

f. Surface or pad requirements; or

g. Other requirements as necessary such as site assessments, groundwater sampling, and corrective action when environmental contamination from a permitted facility is suspected or confirmed.

2. The permittee may request that the Department remove from the permit the additional requirements described in this part if, after two (2) years, those processes are proven to the Department to be effective, as determined by the Department. In all cases, the Department shall retain the authority to determine the effectiveness of the process and/or feedstock mixture for the protection of human health, surface water standards, and groundwater standards.
