A minimum separation of 17 feet shall be maintained between wastes or <br /> leachates and the highest anticipated elevation of underlying groundwater including the <br /> capillary fringe. <br /> 5. Coal or wood ash from cogeneration plants may be discharged to units which are <br /> designed and operated to isolate this waste which could produce acidic leachate. <br /> 6. The handling and disposal of friable asbestos-containing wastes at this site shall be in <br /> accordance with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations. <br /> 7. Shredder waste, which has been granted a variance from disposal as `hazardous waste' by <br /> DISC, shall only be discharged to Class II landfill units at this site. <br /> 8. Sludges from water or wastewater treatment plants may be disposed of by spread on a one <br /> foot thick, compacted clay pad that is bermed to prevent runoff(WMU G). Sludges shall <br /> be handled in such a manner as to allow Braying of the waste with no percolation of liquid <br /> or waste constituents through the bottom of the clay pad. Once the waste has dried, it and <br /> any soil it has contacted shall be moved to a lined unit that is approved by the Executive <br /> Officer for the acceptance of designated solid waste.
