NR 665.0196(5)(c)(c) If the cause of the release was a leak from the primary tank system into the secondary containment system, the system shall be repaired prior to returning the tank system to service. NR 665.0196(5)(d)(d) If the source of the release was a leak to the environment from a component of a tank system without secondary containment, the owner or operator shall provide the component of the system from which the leak occurred with secondary containment that satisfies the requirements of s. NR 665.0193 before it can be returned to service, unless the source of the leak is an aboveground portion of a tank system. If the source is an aboveground component that can be inspected visually, the component shall be repaired and may be returned to service without secondary containment as long as the requirements of sub. (6) are satisfied. If a component is replaced to comply with the requirements of this paragraph, that component shall satisfy the requirements for new tank systems or components in ss. NR 665.0192 and 665.0193.

NR 665.0221(1)(1) The owner or operator of each new surface impoundment unit, each lateral expansion of a surface impoundment unit, and each replacement of an existing surface impoundment unit shall install 2 or more liners and a leachate collection and removal system between the liners, and operate the leachate collection and removal system in accordance with s. NR 664.0221 (3), unless exempted under s. NR 664.0221 (4), (5), or (6). NR 665.0221(2)(2) The owner or operator of each unit referred to in sub. (1) shall notify the department at least 60 days prior to receiving waste. The owner or operator of each facility submitting notice shall file a feasibility and plan of operation report within 6 months of the receipt of the notice. NR 665.0221(3)(3) The owner or operator of any replacement surface impoundment unit is exempt from sub. (1) if both of the following apply: NR 665.0221(3)(b)(b) There is no reason to believe that the liner is not functioning as designed. NR 665.0221(4)(4) The double liner requirement in sub. (1) may be waived by the department for any monofill, if the requirements of pars. (a) and (b) 1. or 2. are met: NR 665.0221(4)(a)(a) The monofill contains only hazardous wastes from foundry furnace emission controls or metal casting molding sand, and the wastes do not contain constituents which would render the wastes hazardous for reasons other than the toxicity characteristic in s. NR 661.0024, with EPA hazardous waste numbers D004 to D017. NR 665.0221(4)(b)1.a.a. The monofill has at least one liner for which there is no evidence that the liner is leaking. For the purposes of this subsection the term “liner” means a liner designed, constructed, installed and operated to prevent hazardous waste from passing into the liner at any time during the active life of the facility, or a liner designed, constructed, installed and operated to prevent hazardous waste from migrating beyond the liner to adjacent subsurface soil, groundwater or surface water at any time during the active life of the facility. In the case of any surface impoundment which has been exempted from the requirements of sub. (1) on the basis of a liner designed, constructed, installed and operated to prevent hazardous waste from passing beyond the liner, at the closure of the impoundment the owner or operator shall remove or decontaminate all waste residues, all contaminated liner material and contaminated soil to the extent practicable. If all contaminated soil is not removed or decontaminated, the owner of operator of the impoundment shall comply with appropriate long-term care requirements, including but not limited to groundwater monitoring and corrective action. NR 665.0221(4)(b)1.c.c. The monofill is in compliance with generally applicable groundwater monitoring requirements for facilities with operating licenses under s. 291.25, Stats. NR 665.0221(4)(b)2.2. The owner or operator demonstrates that the monofill is located, designed and operated so as to assure that there will be no migration of any hazardous constituent into groundwater or surface water at any future time. NR 665.0221(5)(5) In the case of any unit in which the liner and leachate collection system has been installed pursuant to the requirements of sub. (1) and in good faith compliance with sub. (1) and with guidance documents governing liners and leachate collection systems under sub. (1), no liner or leachate collection system which is different from that which was so installed pursuant to sub. (1) will be required for the unit by the department when issuing the first operating license to the facility, except that the department will not be precluded from requiring installation of a new liner when the department has reason to believe that any liner installed pursuant to the requirements of sub. (1) is leaking.
