Universal Citation: WI Admin Code § NR 665.0110

Current through August 26, 2024

Except as s. NR 665.0001 provides otherwise:

(1) Sections NR 665.0111 to 665.0115 (which concern closure) apply to the owners and operators of all hazardous waste management facilities.

(2) Sections NR 665.0116 to 665.0120 (which concern long-term care) apply to the owners and operators of all of the following:

(a) All hazardous waste disposal facilities.

(b) Waste piles and surface impoundments for which the owner or operator intends to remove the wastes at closure to the extent that these sections are made applicable to the facilities in s. NR 665.0228 or 665.0258.

(d) Containment building that are required under s. NR 665.1102 to meet the requirements for landfills.

(3) Section NR 665.0121 applies to owners and operators of units that are subject to the requirements of s. NR 670.001(3) (g) and are regulated under an enforceable document (as defined in s. NR 670.001(3) (g)).

(4) The department may replace all or part of the requirements of this subchapter (and the unit-specific standards in s. NR 665.0111(3)) applying to a regulated unit (as defined in s. NR 664.0090), with alternative requirements for closure set out in an approved closure or long-term care plan, or in an enforceable document (as defined in s. NR 670.001(3) (g)), where the department determines both of the following conditions are met:

(a) A 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 units (or areas of concern) are likely to have contributed to the release.

(b) It is not necessary to apply the closure requirements of this subchapter (or those referenced in this subchapter) because the alternative requirements will protect human health and the environment, and will satisfy the closure performance standard of s. NR 665.0111(1) and (2).
