35-11-526. Performance based design and performance based evaluation in consideration and approval of engineered containment systems as part of municipal solid waste landfill permits.
(a) A person submitting an application for a permit pursuant to W.S. 35-11-502 which contains a performance based design for a municipal solid waste landfill that does not incorporate an engineered containment system utilizing a composite liner and leachate collection system, shall submit a report with the application. The report shall contain the applicant's findings as to the proposed performance based design's compliance with applicable state and federal laws and regulations. The report shall contain scientific and engineering data supporting the implementation of the proposed design.
(b) In reviewing scientific and engineering data related to a permit application and report containing a performance based design which does not incorporate an engineered containment system utilizing a composite liner and leachate collection system, the administrator shall prepare a detailed performance evaluation based on applied scientific and engineering data that adheres to W.S. 35-11-527. The administrator shall determine in the performance evaluation whether to validate or invalidate the performance based design or an alternative performance based standard for landfill design contained in the permit application. The administrator shall base the performance based evaluation on acceptable applied scientific and engineering data and an analysis of that data using statistical procedures, including statistical power, when applicable.
(c) The applicant or other interested party may appeal the administrator's determination contained in a performance based evaluation of a permit pursuant to W.S. 35-11-502. If the council determines that the performance based evaluation does not accurately or adequately identify and evaluate all the data and criteria required under this section and W.S. 35-11-527, the council shall direct the administrator to reevaluate his determination. A decision by the council that the performance based evaluation is accurate and adequate shall be a final decision of the agency pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act.
