Sec. 228.8  Limitations on times and rates of disposal.

    Limitations as to time for and rates of dumping may be stated as 
part of the promulgation of site designation. The times and the 
quantities of permitted material disposal will be regulated by the EPA 
management authority so that the limits for the site as specified in the 
site designation are not exceeded. This will be accomplished by the 
denial of permits for the disposal of some materials, by the imposition 
of appropriate conditions on other permits and, if necessary, the 
designation of new disposal sites under the procedures of Sec. 228.4. In 
no case may the total volume of material disposed of at any site under 
special or interim permits cause the concentration of the total 
materials or any constituent of any of the materials being disposed of 
at the site to exceed limits specified in the site designation.
