4) An existing MSWLF unit or a lateral expansion that is newly required to obtain a permit under Section 21(d) of the Act on or after October 9, 1993 shall comply with the standards prescribed in Subpart C or Subpart D, whichever is applicable.

c) The requirements of Sections 814.104, 814.105 and 814.106 of this Subpart apply only to those landfill facilities identified as existing facilities in subsection (a) and which require an Agency issued permit.

1) Permit requirements specified in Sections 814.108 and 814.109; and

2) Any other applicable Federal rules, laws, regulations, or other requirements.
