Sec. 24. After the effective date of this Act, no district, person, firm or corporation, public or private, may establish a new solid waste disposal site or facility without first obtaining a permit from the Environmental Protection Agency under the provisions of the Environmental Protection Act. Application for such permit shall be on forms provided by the Agency and shall be accompanied by such supporting documents as the Agency shall require. Prior to issuing a permit to establish a new solid waste disposal site or facility the Agency shall review the application and supporting documents and make an on-site inspection of the proposed site.
The Agency may request the Illinois State Geological Survey of the University of Illinois to prepare a report concerning the soil characteristics, water table, and other appropriate physical characteristics of the proposed site. If the proposed new solid waste disposal site or facility conforms to the minimum standards provided in such Act, the Agency shall issue a permit for the operation of such site or facility. If the proposed new solid waste disposal site or facility does not conform to the minimum standards provided by such Act, no permit shall be issued and the solid waste disposal site or facility shall not be constructed or operated.
