Security

1. The owner or operator shall prevent the unknowing entry, and minimize the possibility for the unauthorized entry, of persons or livestock onto the active portion of the owner's or operator's facility, unless the owner or operator can demonstrate to the department that: a. Physical contact with the waste, structures, or equipment with the active portion of the facility will not injure unknowing or unauthorized persons or livestock which may enter the active portion of the facility. b. Disturbance of the waste or equipment, by the unknowing or unauthorized entry of persons or livestock onto the active portion of a facility, will not cause a violation of the requirements of this chapter. 2. Unless exempt under subdivisions a and b of subsection 1, the facility must have: a. A twenty-four-hour surveillance system, for example, television monitoring or surveillance by guards or facility personnel, which continuously monitors and controls entry onto the active portion of the facility; or b. Both of the following: (1) An artificial or natural barrier, for example, a fence in good repair or a fence combined with a cliff, which completely surrounds the active portion of the facility. (2) A means to control entry, at all times, through the gates or other entrances to the active portion of the facility, for example, an attendant, television monitors, locked entrance, or controlled roadway access to the facility. 3. Unless exempt under subdivisions a and b of subsection 1, a sign with a legend, "Danger - Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out", must be posted at each entrance to the active portion of a facility, and at other locations, in sufficient numbers to be seen from any approach to this active portion, and must be legible from a distance of at least twenty-five feet [7.62 meters]. The legend must be written in English and in any other language predominant in the area surrounding the facility. Existing signs with a legend other than "Danger - Unauthorized Personnel Keep Out" may be used if the legend on the sign indicates that only authorized personnel are allowed to enter the active portion, and that entry onto the active portion can be dangerous.
