NR 667.0112(2)(d)
(d) A detailed description of the steps necessary to remove or decontaminate all hazardous waste residues and contaminated containment system components, equipment, structures, and soils during partial or final closure. These steps may include procedures for cleaning equipment and removing contaminated soils, methods for sampling and testing surrounding soils, and criteria for determining the extent of decontamination required to satisfy the closure performance standards.

(a) Notify the department in writing at least 45 days before the date that you expect to begin final closure of a treatment or storage tank, container storage area, or containment building.
NR 667.0112(4)(b)
(b) The date when you expect to begin closure shall be no later than 30 days after the date that any hazardous waste management unit receives the known final volume of hazardous wastes.
NR 667.0112(4)(c)
(c) If your facility's license is terminated, or if you are otherwise ordered, by the department, or required by judicial decree or final order under
42 USC 6928 to cease receiving hazardous wastes or to close then the requirements of this subsection do not apply. However, you shall close the facility following the deadlines established in s.
