Abstract |
Proper sludge management has become an increasing problem for municipalities, industries and private facilities across the State. All sludge generators are responsible for the proper disposal of sludge and must provide details of the plan for the ultimate disposal of sludge to the Agency as a part of any permit application for any facility which will generate a sludge. Proper sludge disposal is paramount. Due to the importance of proper sludge disposal for all sludge generators, guidance pursuant to all Illinois Pollution Control Board Rules and Regulations on the ultimate disposal of sludge is necessary to give direction to generators, consultants, handlers, users and the general public. |
