310 CMR 30.586
Recording Survey Plat
No later than the submission of the certification of closure, in compliance with 310 CMR
30.587(1), of each land disposal unit or facility, the owner or operator of the land disposal unit
or facility shall record in the appropriate Registry of Deeds or, if the land in question is registered
land, in the registry section of the land court for the district wherein the land lies, and shall
submit to the Department and to the Board of Health of the city or town wherein the land lies,
a survey plat indicating the location and dimensions of landfill cells and other disposal units with
respect to permanently surveyed benchmarks. This plat shall be prepared and certified by a
professional land surveyor and shall be in a form acceptable to the Registry of Deeds. The plat
shall contain a note prominently displayed which states the obligation to restrict disturbance of
the site of the land disposal unit or facility in accordance with 310 CMR 30.590. In addition, the
plat shall be accompanied by a record of the type, location, and quantity of hazardous wastes in
the land disposal unit or facility. For wastes placed in the land disposal unit or facility before
the effective date of 310 CMR 30.000, the owner or operator shall identify the type, location, and
quantity of the wastes to the best of his knowledge and in accordance with any records kept by
him or his predecessors. After the survey plat and record of wastes has been recorded, any
changes that occur in the type, location, or quantity of hazardous wastes within each land
disposal unit or area of the facility, or in what the owner or operator knows or learns about the
type, location, or quantity of hazardous wastes within each land disposal unit or area of the
facility, shall be noted on a revised plat which shall be promptly recorded in the appropriate
Registry of Deeds or Land Court and promptly reported to the Department.
