Public Comment Period Ends For Proposed Rule Amendments In 15A NCAC 02T .1500 - Soil Remediation

The Division of Waste Management has taken comments from a stakeholder stating that, for closure of a soil remediation permitted facility, having a closure/cleanup based on a non-detection level of soil contamination is unreasonable. Changing the closure/cleanup to a risk-based closure/cleanup requirement requires rule changes to modify certain closure/cleanup requirements applicable to the soil remediation permitting. This change will be protective of human health and the environment and will reduce costs to some stakeholders. The purpose of this comment period is to receive comments on proposed amendments to Rule 15A NCAC 02T .1500 to meet requirements of G.S. 150B-21.2(f). Comments from the public shall be directed to: Jeremy J. Poplawski, NCDEQ/DWM/UST Section 1646 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 26799-1646 Phone: 919-707-8151 Fax: 919-715-1117 E-Mail: jeremy.poplawski@ncdenr.gov
