PART 6_SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL SITES IN UNITS OF THE NATIONAL PARK 
SYSTEM--Table of Contents
 
Sec.  6.6  Solid waste disposal sites within new additions to the 
National Park System.

    (a) An operator of a solid waste disposal site located on lands or 
waters added to the National Park System, by act of Congress or by 
proclamation, after January 23, 1995, will not be permitted to dispose 
of solid waste after expiration of the permit or license in effect on 
the date of the land's or water's designation as being within a National 
Park System unit's boundaries. The operator must then immediately 
fulfill all applicable closure and post-closure care requirements.
    (b) An operator of a solid waste disposal site located on lands or 
waters designated as being within the boundaries of a unit of the 
National Park System established or expanded after January 23, 1995, who 
wishes to remain in operation for the duration of the existing permit or 
license, must submit to the Regional Director, within 180 calendar days 
of the land's or water's designation as being within a National Park 
System unit boundaries, a permit request and environmental report as 
described in Sec.  6.4(b) (1)-(9).
    (c) Any operator who fails to submit a request as described in 
paragraph (b) of this section will be subject to the penalty provisions 
of Sec.  6.12.
    (d) If the Regional Director finds that the permit request and the 
environmental report do not meet the conditions for approval set forth 
in Sec.  6.5(c), the Regional Director will reject the request and 
notify the proposed operator of the reasons for the rejection. Within 90 
calendar days of such notice, the operator of the solid waste disposal 
site must cease disposing of solid waste at the site. The operator may 
resume disposing of solid waste only upon submission and approval of a 
permit request and environmental report that the Regional Director 
determines meet the conditions set forth in Sec.  6.5(c).
