Sec. 228.3  Disposal site management responsibilities.

    (a) Management of a site consists of regulating times, rates, and 
methods of disposal and quantities and types of materials disposed of; 
developing and maintaining effective ambient monitoring programs for the 
site; conducting disposal site evaluation and designation studies; and 
recommending modifications in site use and/or designation (e.g., 
termination of use of the site for general use or for disposal of 
specific wastes).
    (b) Each site, upon interim or final designation, will be assigned 
to either an EPA Regional office or to EPA Headquarters for management. 
These designations will be consistent with the delegation of authority 
in Sec. 220.4. The designated management authority is fully responsible 
for all aspects of the management of sites within the general 
requirements specified in Sec. 220.4 and this section. Specific 
requirements for meeting the management responsibilities assigned to the 
designated management authority for each site are outlined in 
Secs. 228.5 and 228.6.
