§ 287.312. Existing facilities.
(a) Each person or municipality operating a residual waste processing or disposal facility and which has not filed a bond under the act shall, by January 4, 1993, file a bond with the Department in accordance with this subchapter. For facilities subject to § 287.111 (relating to notice by impoundments and unpermitted processing or disposal facilities), the bond shall be filed as part of the notice required under that section. The minimum amount of the bond shall be $10,000. This section will not be construed to prevent the Department from requiring bonds to be posted in addition to the bond originally posted in compliance with this section. This section will not be construed to prevent the Department from requiring bonds to be posted as required by the act for another facility operating on or after July 4, 1992.
(b) Prior to the approval by the Department of a closure plan submitted under § 287.117 (relating to closure plan) or to the issuance by the Department of an approval of a completed application for permit modification submitted under § 287.115 (relating to filing by permitted facilities), each person or municipality operating a residual waste processing or disposal facility under permit subject to § 287.115 shall submit an updated bond in an amount approved by the Department.
(c) The bond required by this section shall be submitted under this subchapter, containing terms and conditions required by the Department, and shall be on a form prepared and approved by the Department. The bond shall be made payable to the Department, and shall provide for continuous liability from the initiation of operations at the facility. The amount of the bond shall be determined under § 287.331 (relating to bond amount determination).
