The newly promulgated Subtitle D landfill regulations (40 CFR 258) require landfill owners and operators to adhere to certain design or performance standards for the location, design, operation, and closure of municipal solid waste landfill facilities. Here the authors address the groundwater monitoring requirements and corrective action requirements of those regulations. The section of the regulations addressing groundwater monitoring and corrective action, Subpart E, is the most comprehensive section of the regulations. As with other parts of the regulations, Subpart E also contains inherent flexibility. This article addresses the following sections of Subpart E: Compliance Schedules Exemptions, Groundwater Monitoring Systems, Sampling and Analysis, Detection Monitoring, Assessment Monitoring, and Corrective Action.
