As of January 12, 1991, a facility that failed to qualify for federal interim status for any waste code promulgated pursuant to HSWA or that lost interim status for failing to certify as required by HSWA for any newly promulgated waste code, shall also be denied interim status pursuant to this administrative regulation.Section 3.
Specific Hazardous Wastes and Facilities. Except as established in subsections (1) through (3) of this section and Sections 5 through 9 of this administrative regulation, standards for the management of specific hazardous wastes and specific types of hazardous waste management facilities shall be as established in 40 C.F.R.

Standardized Permits. Except as established in Sections 5 through 9 of this administrative regulation, the standards for owners and operators of hazardous waste facilities operating under a standardized permit shall be as established in 40 C.F.R. 267, except 40 C.F.R. 267.150.Section 5.
Flood Plains.(1)
Except as established in subsection (3)(b) of this section, a facility located in a 100-year flood plain shall be designed, constructed, operated, maintained, and refitted if necessary, to prevent washout of any hazardous waste and to protect the facility from inundation by waters of the 100-year flood plain throughout the:(a)
Active life of the facility;(b)
Closure phase of the facility; and(c)
For disposal facilities only, the post-closure phase.(2)
Prevention of washout and protection from inundation shall be accomplished by:(a)
Using a structure or device designed to:1.
Provide adequate freeboard to prevent overtopping of the structure during a 100-year flood due to wind and wave action;2.
Provide sufficient structural integrity to prevent massive failure due to the force and erosive tendencies of the 100-year floodwaters; and3.
