Utah Admin. Code R315-264-110 - Closure and Post-Closure - Applicability

Except as Section R315-264-1 provides otherwise:

(a) Sections R315-264-111 through 115, which concern closure, apply to the owners and operators of all hazardous waste management facilities; and

(b) Sections R315-264-116 through 120, which concern post-closure care, apply to the owners and operators of:

(1) All hazardous waste disposal facilities;

(2) Waste piles and surface impoundments from which the owner or operator intends to remove the wastes at closure to the extent that these sections are made applicable to such facilities in Sections R315-264-228 or 258;

(3) Tank systems that are required under Section R315-264-197 to meet the requirements for landfills; and

(4) Containment buildings that are required under Section R315-264-1102 to meet the requirement for landfills.

(c) The Director may replace all or part of the requirements of Sections R315-264-110 through 120, including the unit-specific standards referenced in Subsection R315-264-111(c) applying to a regulated unit, with alternative requirements set out in a permit or in an enforceable document, as defined in Subsection R315-270-1(c)(7), where the Director determines that:

(1) The regulated unit is situated among solid waste management units, or areas of concern, a release has occurred, and both the regulated unit and one or more solid waste management unit(s), or areas of concern, are likely to have contributed to the release; and

(2) It is not necessary to apply the closure requirements of Sections R315-264-110 through 120, and those referenced herein, because the alternative requirements will protect human health and the environment and will satisfy the closure performance standard of Subsections R315-264-111(a) and (b).
