NR 506.07(1)(b)(b) Provisions shall be made to confine windblown material within the active disposal area. NR 506.07(1)(c)(c) At the conclusion of each day of operation, all windblown material shall be collected and properly disposed of in the active area in accordance with the provisions of this section unless the operator establishes, to the satisfaction of the department, that all windblown material cannot be collected using reasonable efforts because of conditions beyond the control of the operator, and windblown material which can be collected using a reasonable effort has been collected and properly disposed and nuisance conditions do not exist. NR 506.07(1)(d)(d) Putrescible materials such as spoiled foods and animal carcasses shall be immediately compacted and covered. NR 506.07(1)(e)(e) Access to the landfill shall be restricted through the use of fencing, natural barriers or other methods approved in writing by the department. NR 506.07(1)(f)(f) Effective means shall be taken to limit access to the active disposal area to minimize exposure of the public to hazards. NR 506.07(1)(g)(g) Effective means shall be taken to control birds, flies, rodents, deer and other animals. NR 506.07(1)(h)(h) Equipment shall be provided to control accidental fires and arrangements shall be made with the local fire protection agency to acquire its services when needed. NR 506.07(1)(i)(i) As required in s. NR 524.05, a trained operator or certified facility manager shall be present at the landfill during all hours of operation, and a list of names of trained operators and certified facility managers shall be maintained at the landfill. NR 506.07(1)(j)(j) A gate shall be provided at the entrance to the operation and it shall be kept locked when an attendant is not on duty. NR 506.07(1)(k)(k) The gate area shall be policed at the beginning of each day of operation to remove any solid waste which has been indiscriminately dumped during periods when the landfill was closed. NR 506.07(1)(L)(L) A sign, acceptable to the department, shall be posted at the entrance of any landfill operated for public use which indicates the landfill name, license number, the hours of operation, waste types accepted, penalty for unauthorized use, necessary safety precautions and any other pertinent information. NR 506.07(1)(m)(m) The landfill shall be surrounded with rapidly growing trees, shrubbery, fencing, berms or other appropriate means to screen it from the surrounding area and to provide a wind break. NR 506.07(1)(o)(o) Scavenging within the active disposal area is prohibited. NR 506.07(1)(p)(p) Provisions shall be made for back-up equipment in the event of operating equipment breakdown. NR 506.07(1)(q)(q) A minimum separation distance of 20 feet shall be maintained between the limits of filling and adjacent property or the perimeter of the licensed acreage, whichever is closer at nonapproved facilities as defined in s. 289.01 (24), Stats. At all other facilities, a minimum separation distance of 100 feet shall be maintained between the limits of solid waste filling and the property boundary or the perimeter of the licensed acreage, whichever is closer. The department may require additional separation distance if necessary to provide for vehicle access, drainage, monitoring, gas migration control, separation to adjacent homes or other landfill development factors. NR 506.07(1)(r)(r) All topsoil within the landfill construction limits shall be salvaged and stored within the property boundaries for use in landfill closure. All stockpiled soil material which is not anticipated to be used within 6 months shall be seeded. NR 506.07(1)(s)(s) All access roads to the active area of the operation shall be of all-weather construction and shall be maintained in good condition. NR 506.07(1)(t)(t) All access roads for the use of solid waste hauling trucks shall be constructed with a maximum grade no greater than 10%. The intersection of the access road with an existing highway shall be constructed to provide sufficient sight distance and minimize interference with traffic on existing highways. NR 506.07(2)(a)(a) All areas of the landfill property, including areas of temporary disturbance, with the potential for off-site migration of sediment shall be designed, constructed and maintained in accordance with the applicable requirements of s. NR 504.09 (1), and technical standards developed under subch. V of ch. NR 151, which include the following: NR 506.07(2)(a)1.1. Storm water shall be diverted away from the working area and areas already filled with solid waste. NR 506.07(2)(a)2.2. Storm water from upslope areas shall be diverted around disturbed areas to minimize erosion, entrained sediment and the amount of water contacting the disturbed area. NR 506.07(2)(a)3.3. The size and duration of disturbances shall be minimized, to the extent practicable, to minimize off-site sediment migration. NR 506.07(2)(a)4.4. While the site is disturbed, temporary measures shall be used to trap sediment and off-site sediment migration. This could include gravel breaks or the equivalent to minimize the transport of sediments offsite. NR 506.07(2)(a)5.5. Runoff channels shall be protected to prevent scour and erosion that generates sediment.
