Ms . Donna Heran <br /> November 6, 1998 <br /> Page 2 <br /> CUPAs may also approve, or deny any request for using an <br /> alternative financial mechanism or fund the mechanism in five <br /> years pay-in plan. <br /> For facilities located in your jurisdiction that specified <br /> DTSC as the beneficiary on the financial assurance mechanisms, <br /> SRPD will communicate with the financial institutions to ensure <br /> the beneficiary is changed to the CUPA. CUPAs, in the meantime, <br /> should advise CA and PBR facilities to submit annual <br /> certifications to CUPAs and direct those that are required to <br /> establish a financial assurance coverage for closure to designate <br /> your agency as the beneficiary in any new or renewal mechanisms . <br /> To meet DTSC' s commitment in implementing the Unified <br /> Program, DTSC has developed a self-study manual on the financial <br /> responsibility requirements for facilities . It covers Full <br /> Permit, Standardized Permit, and the lower three tiers . The <br /> manual is a tool to help the local agency inspectors understand <br /> the financial assurance for closure requirements and provide <br /> guidance on how to evaluate the financial mechanisms . The manual <br /> is available from California Compliance School upon request and <br /> by paying the required cost . <br /> Please be informed that handling of the financial assurance <br /> mechanism as a negotiable document is a confidential matter. <br /> Also, some mechanisms are negotiable instruments and must be <br /> stored securely. CUPAs should ensure the proper administrative <br /> procedure to secure these financial assurance documents . <br /> If you have any questions regarding this letter, please call <br /> Mr. Nabil H. Yacoub at (714) 484-5389 . <br /> Sincerely, <br /> /Is Stephen W. Lavinger, Chief <br /> Southern California Branch <br />
