A MSWLF unit may be a new MSWLF unit, an existing MSWLF unit <br />or a lateral expansion. <br />1 Municipal solid waste landfill units that receive waste after October 9, 1991 but stopped <br />receiving waste before October 9, 1993 are exempt from all the requirements of CCR <br />Title 14, Division 7, Article 4.5.
