(2) Whenever the environmental protection standard under section 66264.702 is exceeded, or when a concentration specified for soil-pore gas or open-air downwind from the hazardous waste facility, is exceeded, the owner or operator shall institute a corrective action program under section 66264.708.

(3) In all other cases, the owner or operator shall institute a detection monitoring program under section 66264.706.

(b) The Department will specify in the facility permit the specific elements of the monitoring and response program.
