Section 74:36:07:94 - Initial design capacity report for existing municipal solid waste landfills

The owner or operator of an existing municipal solid waste landfill shall submit an initial design capacity report to the Secretary prior to but no later than 90 days after the effective date of EPAs approval of the state's § 111(d) plan required in the Clean Air Act, except when the existing municipal solid waste landfill is in the closed landfill subcategory. An existing municipal solid waste landfill that is in the closed landfill subcategory is not required to submit an initial design capacity report if the owner or operator already submitted the initial design capacity report on or before July 17, 2014. The initial design capacity report shall contain the following:

(1) A map or plot of the landfill providing the size and location of the landfill and identifying all areas where solid waste may be landfilled; and
(2) Where the maximum design capacity is specified in a permit, a copy of the permit specifying the maximum design capacity may be submitted as part of the report. If the maximum design capacity of the landfill is not specified in the permit, the maximum design capacity shall be calculated using good engineering practices. The calculations shall be provided along with the relevant parameters as part of the report. The landfill may calculate design capacity in either megagrams or cubic meters for comparison with the exemption values. If the owner or operator chooses to convert the design capacity from volume to mass or from mass to volume to demonstrate its design capacity is less than 2.5 million megagrams or 2.5 million cubic meters, the calculation shall include a site-specific density, which shall be recalculated annually. Any density conversions shall be documented and submitted with the design capacity report. The department may request other reasonable information as may be necessary to verify the maximum design capacity of the landfill.
