Upon completing all repairs and cleanup the owner or operator shall notify the department in writing and provide a verification, signed by a qualified, registered professional engineer, that the repairs and cleanup have been completed according to the written plan submitted in accordance with subd.
1. d. NR 664.1101(3)(d)
(d) Inspect and record in the facility operating record, at least once every 7 days, data gathered from monitoring equipment and leak detection equipment as well as the containment building and the area immediately surrounding the containment building to detect signs of releases of hazardous waste.
