 APPENDIX A
This appendix uses State of Virginia requirements for a landfill permit
application as one example of the information required to get a permit. The
appendix discusses site information, operating plans and financial documen-
tation required to get a landfill permit. Although other state requirements
may differ slightly in an item by item comparison, the Virginia example
provides guidelines on the level of detail needed in most states.
