Sec. 11541.
(1) Within 9 months after the completion of construction of a municipal solid waste incinerator, the owner or operator shall submit a plan to the department for a program that, to the extent practicable, reduces the incineration of noncombustible materials and dangerous combustible materials and their hazardous by-products at the incinerator. The plan shall include an implementation schedule. Within 30 days after receiving the plan, the department shall approve or disapprove the plan and notify the owner or operator in writing. In reviewing the plan, the department shall consider the current materials management plan for the planning area where the incinerator is located and available markets, disposal alternatives, and collection practices for the managed materials. If the department disapproves a plan, the notice shall specify the reasons for disapproval. If the department disapproves the plan, the owner or operator shall, within 30 days after receipt of the department's disapproval, submit a revised plan that addresses all of the reasons for disapproval specified by the department. The department shall approve or disapprove the revised plan within 30 days after receiving the revised plan and notify the owner or operator in writing. If the department disapproves the revised plan, the notice shall specify the reasons for disapproval. If the department disapproves the revised plan, the department may continue with the approval process under this subsection or take appropriate enforcement action.
(2) Not later than 6 months after the approval of the plan by the department under subsection (1), the owner or operator shall implement the plan in compliance with the implementation schedule. The operation of a municipal solid waste incinerator without an approved plan under this section subjects the owner or operator, or both, to the sanctions provided by this part.
