(b) The owner or operator of a hazardous waste facility performing corrective action pursuant to the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 or regulations issued thereunder, or analogous State law or regulations, may request from the Agency an expedited review of that corrective action. Within a reasonable time, the Agency shall respond in writing, indicating whether the Agency will perform expedited review.
(c) An owner or operator approved by the Agency for an expedited review under this Section shall pay to the Agency all reasonable costs the Agency incurs in its review of the owner’s or operator’s corrective action activities (including but not limited to investigations, monitoring, and cleanup of releases of hazardous waste or hazardous constituents). Prior to any Agency review, the owner or operator shall make an advance partial payment to the Agency for anticipated review costs in an amount acceptable to the Agency, but not to exceed $5,000 or one-half of the total anticipated costs of the Agency, whichever is less. All amounts paid to the Agency pursuant to this Section shall be deposited into the Environmental Protection Permit and Inspection Fund.
(d) The Agency’s expedited review under this Section shall include, but need not be limited to: review of the owner’s or operator’s corrective action plans, reports, documents, and associated field activities; issuance of corrective action decision documents; and issuance of letters certifying the completion of corrective action activities or discrete portions thereof.
(e) The Agency may cease its expedited review under this Section if an owner or operator fails to pay the Agency’s review costs when due.
(f) An owner or operator approved by the Agency for an expedited review under this Section may withdraw its request for an expedited review at any time by providing the Agency with written notification of its withdrawal; but the owner or operator shall be responsible to pay all expedited review costs incurred by the Agency through the date of withdrawal.
