Full references to all related documents are provided. Landfills that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after May 30, 1991 are subject tot he Federal NSPS (40 CFR 60 Subpart WWW).

The requirements of the NSPS and EG are similar. Enclosed is a summary of the NSPS and EG and the control, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements.
