NAC444.741. Plan for monitoring water; suspension of monitoring requirements.

     1. A plan for monitoring water for a Class III site must provide for a system capable of monitoring the performance of the design of the site, including the monitoring of the unsaturated zone or groundwater depending on local conditions.

     2. The plan must:

     (a) Identify the location and construction of monitoring points to be used to detect the migration of pollutants or contaminants from the site to the waters of the State;

     (b) Specify monitoring parameters and the frequency of monitoring those parameters;

     (c) Specify procedures to ensure quality for all field and laboratory work;

     (d) Provide for the semiannual submittal of monitoring data to the solid waste management authority;

     (e) Define procedures which will be followed if monitoring provides evidence of potential design failure; and

     (f) Comply with the provisions of NAC 444.7481 to 444.7499, inclusive, if the plan includes the monitoring of groundwater.

     3. The solid waste management authority may suspend monitoring requirements if the owner or operator of a Class III site demonstrates that there is no reasonable potential for migration of pollutants or contaminants from the site to waters of the State.
