Section 13-22-2-7 - Rules setting standards for corrective action for release of hazardous waste

The board shall adopt rules under IC 4-22-2 and IC 13-14-9 setting standards for corrective action for all releases of hazardous waste or constituents from any solid waste management unit at a hazardous waste facility. The standards must require that corrective action be taken beyond the facility boundary where necessary to protect human health and the environment, unless the owner or operator of the facility concerned demonstrates to the satisfaction of the commissioner that, despite the best efforts of the owner or operator, the owner or operator is unable to obtain the necessary permission to undertake that action. The rules adopted under this section apply to the following:

(1) All facilities operating under permits issued under IC 13-22-3 or IC 13-7-8.5 (before its repeal).

(2) All landfills, surface impoundments, and waste piles, including any new units, replacements of existing units, and lateral expansions of existing units, that receive hazardous waste after July 26, 1982.
