This program is implemented via the Compliance Plan section of the IHW Permit or corrective action obligations incorporated into a Post Closure Care Order. Remediation of environmental media which are contaminated by releases from the Solid Waste Management Units (HSWA corrective action). This program is also implemented via the Compliance Plan section of the IHW Permit. Note: In both scenarios discussed in 1. and 2. above, the program also functions in a supportive role to the Waste Permit's Section on the processing of renewal, amendment and/or modification applications associated with all Compliance Plans and Post Closure Care Orders.
