Abstract |
In August 1988, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proposed Solid Waste Disposal Facilities Criteria (40 CFR Part 258) for municipal solid waste landfills. The background document provides the technical support for Subpart 'E' - Ground-Water Monitoring and Corrective Action. The document provides detailed information on the development and implementation of the ground-water and corrective action requirements. Options for the ground-water monitoring and corrective action program are discussed and rationale explaining the Agency's decisions are presented. The document discusses: (1) ground-water monitoring systems; (2) sampling and analytical requirements; (3) monitoring requirements; (4) ground-water trigger levels; (5) the corrective action program; (6) remedy selection; and (7) implementation of corrective actions. |
