To obtain or revise a solid waste facility permit, each solid waste facility operator
must file with the LEA/EA a Report of Facility
Information (RFI) or other report or plan as required by regulation. A
complete
and correct permit
application submittal is required to be supported by a new, revised, or amended
RFI.
An RFI is an operations and design plan that describes the facility and how
it will comply with State Minimum Standards. RFIs are
required to be kept current. In certain cases, an
RFI
Amendment can be approved without revising the permit.
While the notification tier does not include a requirement for an RFI, some
notification sites and operations require submittal of an "operation plan".
The type of report or plan (and required information) depends on the type of facility
and/or the type of permit. The chart on this page identifies the type of report
or plan
needed, providing a link to the regulations which describe the required content.
