OSTI ID:6009695

This bill amends the Solid Waste Disposal Act to change the deadlines when facilities must certify that they are in compliance with the financial requirements of the Act; i.e., that they have obtained appropriate insurance policies and other protection as required by law. The bill delays compliance during interim status in terms of groundwater monitoring, with interim status terminating on November 8, 1987. The bill covers facilities which were in compliance, but whose insurance policies were later cancelled, those with revenues in the July 1981-1982 fiscal year of less than $5 million, those in states whose requirement came into effect after November 8, 1984, and those which can document a good-faith effort to comply.
