Financial Assurance Requirements for Solid Waste Facilities

Landfills, incinerators and some other types of solid waste facilities are required to provide financial assurance to guarantee there will be sufficient funds to properly close the facility when business operations are terminated and to cover the cost of post-closure monitoring and maintenance. Financial assurance must be provided prior to commencing facility operations and updated to reflect current facility conditions.
