(c) dust and odor suppression and fire risk minimization. 2. The department shall in the case of a primary recharge area, and may for other recharge areas, promulgate rules and regulations to be implemented twenty-four months after the effective date of this section, to prevent water quality and other environmental impairments resulting from land clearing debris facilities or composting facilities by requiring the use of an impermeable liner, in addition to the requirements of subdivision one of this section.
