Wis. Admin. Code Department of Natural Resources § NR 512.13 - Constraints on landfill development
The feasibility report shall contain a discussion of constraints for the development of the proposed landfill. This shall include:
(1) LOCATIONAL CRITERIA AND
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS. A demonstration that the proposed landfill will meet the
locational criteria and performance standards under s. NR 504.04. For a new CCR
landfill or an expansion of a CCR landfill, all of the following also apply:
(a) The demonstration shall address all of
the following factors, at a minimum, when determining whether an area is
unstable:
1. On-site or local soil conditions
that may result in significant differential settling.
2. On-site or local geologic or
geomorphologic features.
3. On-site
or local human-made features or events both surface and subsurface.
(b) A facility or practice near a
floodplain may not restrict the flow of the regional flood, reduce the
temporary water storage capacity of the flood plain, or result in washout of
solid waste, so as to pose a hazard to human life, wildlife, or land or water
resources.
(c) A facility or
practice may not result in the destruction or adverse modification of the
critical habitat of endangered or threatened species as identified under s. NR
27.03 (1).
(2)
GEOTECHNICAL INFORMATION. An analysis of the geologic, hydrogeologic,
topographic and hydrologic features of the facility that may be favorable or
unfavorable for landfill development.
(3) CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION. A discussion
of materials and support services required for landfill construction and
operation. These shall include leachate treatment alternatives, identification
of and a detailed evaluation of the capability of any proposed wastewater
treatment plants to treat the anticipated quality and quantity of leachate,
quality and quantity of acceptable materials available for landfill liner and
final cap, and any specialized engineering structures to support landfilling
activities.
(4) EXISTING FACILITY
PERFORMANCE. For a proposed contiguous, horizontal or vertical expansion of an
existing landfill, the compliance status and performance of the existing
landfill shall be evaluated.
(a) The
discussion in any applicable pre-feasibility report on the compliance status
and performance of the existing landfill shall be referenced in the feasibility
report and any changes in the compliance status and performance of the existing
landfill since the submittal of any applicable pre-feasibility report shall be
addressed.
(b) If a preventive
action limit or enforcement standard adopted under ss. NR 140.10 and 140.12 has
been attained or exceeded at the proposed landfill location, an exemption
request under s. NR 140.28 and in accordance with s. NR 507.29 shall be
contained in the feasibility report.
