Sec. 3.

(a) A permit application for a new MSWLF or a lateral expansion must be accompanied by a minimum of two (2) intersecting cross-sectional drawings. The drawings must include the following:

(1) Elevations that correlate with USGS mean sea level data.

(2) Final construction plan with:
(A) horizontal and vertical solid waste boundaries;

(B) drainage structures;

(C) leachate collection system;

(D) explosive gas management system components;

(E) proposed depth of the excavation; and

(F) other significant features that may adversely affect the facility design.

(b) In addition to the two (2) cross-sectional drawings required in subsection (a), a permit application for a new MSWLF or a lateral expansion must be accompanied by a minimum of two (2) geological cross-sections. The two (2) geological cross-sections must intersect, and the locations of the sections indicated on the existing feature plan or the piezometric contour map. Each geologic cross-sectional drawing must have horizontal and vertical bar scales and depict the following:

(1) The types of soil materials or rock strata, as identified by boring logs, from the ground surface to the required boring depth.

(2) Present topography (mean sea level elevations).

(3) Uppermost aquifer and all significant zones of saturation.

(4) Any vertical components of ground water flow based on information contained in the hydrogeologic site investigation report for the uppermost aquifer and all significant zones of saturation.

(5) All boring locations along the transect used to prepare the cross section.

(6) Proposed horizontal solid waste boundary.

(7) The base of the liner system or if required any leak detection system and the top of the protective system.

(8) Direction of cross-sectional traverse.

(9) Proposed depth of excavation if it differs from that in subdivision (7).

(10) The original grade, if available.

(c) A permit application for a new MSWLF or a lateral expansion must be accompanied by detail drawings that are cross-sectional of the:

(1) liner system;

(2) geosynthetic anchor trenches if applicable;

(3) final cover system;

(4) drainage structures;

(5) permanent sedimentation and erosion control structures;

(6) leachate collection system, including:
(A) subgrade elevation;

(B) piping;

(C) cleanout location;

(D) drainage features and structures;

(E) sump, risers, and manholes; and

(F) lift station elevations if applicable;

(7) explosive gas monitoring and management system;

(8) on-site roads;

(9) monitoring well construction; and

(10) any other site specific construction details that may adversely affect the facility plan.
