Delay of General Compliance Date for Small Municipal Solid Waste Landfills Located in Either Dry or Remote Areas

On August 10, 1995, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a proposed rule to provide to approved States and Tribes the flexibility to determine alternative ground-water monitoring requirements, on a site-specific basis, for small municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs) that are located in either dry or remote areas (hereafter referred to as ``qualifying small MSWLFs''). The proposed rule also solicited comments on a two-year delay, until October 9, 1997, of the general compliance date of the MSWLF criteria for qualifying small MSWLFs to allow EPA time to finalize the proposed alternatives. Today's rule finalizes only the delay of the compliance date.
