Section 1.41 - Development of Interim and Emergency Storage Plans
Current through Register 1531, September 27, 2024
(1) Interim and emergency storage plans shall be developed and implemented by the Board whenever it appears that no facility is or will be available to accept waste produced in Massachusetts.

In the event that a centralized interim or emergency storage facility is determined to be needed, the Board shall identify a location for interim storage, after notice and an opportunity for hearing, and may apply for a facility license in accordance with the provisions of M.G.L. c. 111H, § 31, as permitted by M.G.L. c. 111H, § 12(b)(10), without satisfying the requirements of 345 CMR 1.82 through 1.88.
