N.D. Admin. Code § 33.1-20-13-03
1. All solid waste management systems, operations, units, and facilities must be designed, constructed, operated, maintained, closed, and maintained after closure so as to be in compliance with North Dakota Century Code chapter 61-28, and water quality standards defined in articles 33.1-16 and 33.1-17. Compliance with these standards is enforceable at the compliance boundary of the facility.
2. Whenever ground water monitoring is required, the department must specify in the facility permit the specific elements of ground water monitoring, including indicator parameters which are constituents in or derived from solid waste, the maximum concentration limits in ground water for each parameter not otherwise defined by subsection 1, and the compliance boundary, considering: a. The physical and chemical characteristics of the waste, including the potential for migration in surface water, in the unsaturated zone beneath the facility, and in ground water; b. The hydrogeological characteristics of the site and the surrounding land; c. The existing quality and quantity of ground water, other possible sources of contamination, and the direction of ground water flow; d. The detectability of the indicator parameters or constituents in surface water or in ground water; or e. The proximity of the facility to surface waters; and f. Appropriate parameters from the list in table 1.
3. The compliance boundary shall be located on land owned by the owner of the facility and no more than five hundred feet [152.4 meters] from a landfill or landfill disposal cell.
