(2) Annually, until final closure of the facility, submit to the Director a report containing the results of his or her ground-water quality assessment program which includes, but is not limited to, the calculated, or measured, rate of migration of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents in the ground water during the reporting period. This information shall be submitted no later than March 1 following each calendar year.
