Notation
RELATES TO: KRS 224.10, 224.40, 224.46
STATUTORY AUTHORITY: KRS 224.10-100, 224.46-505, 224.46-520
NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 224.46-520 requires that persons engaging in the storage, treatment, and disposal of hazardous waste obtain a permit. KRS 224.46-520 requires the cabinet to establish standards for these permits, to require adequate financial responsibility, to establish minimum standards for closure for all facilities and the postclosure monitoring and maintenance of hazardous waste disposal facilities. This chapter establishes minimum standards for new hazardous waste sites or facilities. This administrative regulation identifies those counties which must have compliance with the seismic standards demonstrated before siting a hazardous waste site or facility.
