Choice "A" is correct. Municipal Solid Waste Landfills (MSWLF) owners and operators are required to incur a variety of costs to provide for protection of the environment both during the period of landfill operations and during the post-closure period. The estimated total current cost of MSWLF closure and post-closure care, based upon applicable federal state or local laws or regulations, should include:
a. | Cost of equipment expected to be installed and facilities expected to be constructed near or after the date that the MSWLF stops accepting solid waste and during the postclosure period. This equipment should be limited to items that, once installed or constructed, will be exclusively used for the MSWLF. This may include gas monitoring and collection systems. |
b. | Cost of final cover (capping) expected to be applied near or after the date that the MSWLF stops accepting solid waste. |
