| In 2012, the state Environmental Protection Division (EPD) changed its rules on inert landfills, shifting from a permit by rule system to requiring a solid waste handling permit. Inert landfills could be grandfathered in if they were certified by a professional engineer as having met certain stringent requirements. This legislation removes the grandfather and engineer certification components and allows inert waste landfill operators to obtain a solid waste handling permit if the operator notifies the EPD Director and has met the following requirements: if the landfill only accepts waste that is not likely to produce leachate of environmental concern; if no portion of the waste disposal area is located within 100 feet of any property line or enclosed structure; if the waste is spread, compacted and covered at least monthly; if the landfill site is graded and drained to minimize runoff; if access to the landfill is limited; if suitable means are provided to prevent and control fires; and if a lift is properly covered within 30 days after the last placement of waste in the lift. |
