DOES THE RECENT CHANGE TO THE EPA’S LEGACY CCR RULE AFFECT YOUR PLANT?
On May 8, 2024, EPA finalized changes to the CCR regulations for inactive surface impoundments, referred to as “legacy CCR surface impoundments.” Within tailored compliance deadlines, owners and operators of legacy CCR surface impoundments must comply with all existing requirements applicable to inactive CCR surface impoundments at active facilities, except for the location restrictions and liner design criteria.
