(k) 3. Owners and operators of all facilities shall provide an identification of whether the facility is located within a 100-year floodplain. This identification must indicate the source of data for such determination and include a copy of the relevant federal insurance administration flood map, if used, or the calculations and maps used where an FIA map is not available. Information shall also be provided identifying the 100-year flood level and any other special flooding factors (e.g., wave action) which must be considered in designing, constructing, operating, or maintaining the facility to withstand washout from a 100-year flood. 4. Owners and operators of facilities located in the 100-year floodplain shall provide the following information: a. Engineering analysis to indicate the various hydrodynamic and hydrostatic forces expected to result at the site as consequence of a 100-year flood. b. Structural or other engineering studies showing the design of operational units (e.g., tanks, incinerators) and flood protection devices (e.g., floodwalls, dikes) at the facility and how these will prevent washout. c. If applicable, and in lieu of subds. 4. a. and b. , a detailed description of procedures to be followed to remove hazardous waste to safety before the facility is flooded, including: 5. Existing facilities not in compliance with s. NR 664.0018 (2) shall provide a plan showing how the facility will be brought into compliance and a schedule for compliance. 6. Owners and operators of all facilities shall provide an identification of whether the facility is located in: a. A habitat determined by the department to be critical to the continued existence of any threatened or endangered species listed in ch. NR 27 . b. A wetland. (L) An outline of both the introductory and continuing training programs by owners or operators to prepare persons to operate or maintain the HWM facility in a safe manner as required to demonstrate compliance with s. NR 664.0016 . A brief description of how training will be designed to meet actual job tasks according to s. NR 664.0016 (1) (c) .
