SiteTitle | • | Illinois EPA's Ash Impoundment Strategy Progress Report | [X] |
| | 1: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2010 August 4 | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | In response to the massive coal ash spill at a Tennessee Valley Authority facility, Illinois EPA developed an aggressive strategy to assess ash impoundments at coal fired power plants. Since the early 1990s, new ash ponds (surface impoundments) have been required to be lined1 and groundwater monitoring wells have been installed at many of these new ash impoundments. An inventory of power plants with surface impoundments permitted by the Illinois EPA under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit program has been created. There are 24 power plants in Illinois with a total of 83 ash impoundments. | | | | Date Created: | 08 05 2010 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000031354 Original UID: 14638 FIRST WORD: Illinois | |

| 4: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2011 October | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | In regard to coal combustion residues (CCR) at surface impoundments and coal fired electric generating plants; the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA or IEPA) Bureau of Water (BOW) has been implementing a program very similar to the proposed D prime option proposed by U.S. EPA. The corrective actions under the Illinois Pollution Control Boards (Board) groundwater management zone (GMZ) provisions are consistent with the existing closure requirements for solid waste landfills (40 CFR 258). U.S. EPAs proposals for closure of surface impoundments containing coal combustion residuals (CCR) are based on these existing models used for landfills. | | | | Date Created: | 10 27 2011 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000045419 Original UID: 25016 FIRST WORD: Illinois | |
