KRS 224.46-520 requires the Environmental and Public Protection Cabinet to establish standards for these permits, to require adequate financial responsibility, and to establish minimum standards for closure for all facilities and the postclosure monitoring and maintenance of hazardous waste disposal facilities. This administrative regulation establishes minimum standards for containment buildings that qualify for interim status.
