site to a depth sufficient to assure the reliability of the site design;
6) Data obtained from soil samples taken from the proposed
sanitary landfill site which describe the soil classification, grain size
distribution, permeability, compactability, and ion-exchange properties of the
subsurface materials for those strata which are essential to the design of the
landfill;

flow below and adjacent to the proposed sanitary landfill site, with an
appraisal of the effect of the landfill on groundwater and surface waters;
8) Comprehensive analysis of water samples from on-site and

be used;
15) Map of the sanitary landfill site, drawn to scale, indicating
the location of:

B) Points of entrance to and exit from the sanitary landfill site
and to and from the operating area of the sanitary landfill;
C) Interior roads and ramps;
D) Devices for controlling litter;

protection devices, or any other devices as are necessary to comply with
applicable water quality standards;
G) Fire protection facilities;
H) Utilities;
I) Salvage operations;
J) Fill area;
K) Borrow areas;
L) Gas and oil wells;
M) High tension power lines;
N) Fuel transmission pipelines;
O) Field tile drains;
P) Provisions for concealing the site from public view;
16) Evidence of notification required by the Public Act 77-1948,
(Ill. Rev. Stat. 1981, ch. 111½, par. 1039), effective October 1, 1972; and
17) If exploration holes are drilled to obtain data, information
showing the manner of plugging or sealing such holes.
b) Operating Permits.
1) An Application for an Operating Permit for a sanitary landfill
shall contain evidence adequate to prove to the Agency that the operation of
the sanitary landfill will not cause any violation of the Act or of Regulations
promulgated by the Board. The Application shall include certification that all
data and information required by Section 807.316(a) for a Development Permit
has been provided, and that all conditions thereof have been complied with,
except that no information already submitted to the Agency shall be required to
be resubmitted and may be incorporated by reference into the Application for an
Operating Permit.
2) The Agency shall not issue an Operating Permit until it has
made an inspection of the developed site and has determined that the site has
been so developed in accordance with the provisions of the application for
development permit and is in compliance with the Act (the Act) and all
applicable regulations.
