Section 7:13-12.19 - Requirements for solid waste landfill closure

(a) This section sets forth the requirements for activities authorized under a solid waste landfill closure and post-closure plan or disruption approval issued by the Department under N.J.A.C. 7:26-2A.8 and 2A.9, when the activities are proposed in any regulated area.

(b) The Department shall issue an individual permit for regulated activities under (a) above only if the applicant demonstrates that:

1. The project complies with the Department's Solid Waste Regulations, N.J.A.C. 7:26;

2. In order to minimize the potential that solid waste will be transported offsite by floodwaters during the conduct of activities under this section, all material necessary to facilitate the regulated activities is stored and stockpiled as follows:

i. Outside any floodway;

ii. As far as practicable from any regulated water; and

iii. Where practicable, within flood-resistant containment areas;

3. In order to minimize the potential that solid waste will be transported offsite by floodwaters after the completion of the landfill closure or disruption activities, all material permanently placed within a regulated area is stabilized and/or covered with suitable material such that the material will not be eroded, displaced, or transported offsite during the flood hazard area design flood.
