Final TGD: Substantive Revision

DEP ID: 563-2112-656. Title: Liners and Caps for Coal Refuse Disposal Areas. Description: This guidance explains the procedures that the Department will use in approving liners and caps for facility designs and the criteria for as-built certifications for coal refuse disposal areas. The previous version did not contain specification for caps as barrier layers. This revision also removes reference to liners for water impoundments and stockpiles, updates standards and testing methods for liners, and includes a section on preventing contact of the refuse with precipitation during temporary cessation. Additional changes were made based on public comments.
