Preparing No-Migration Demonstrations for Municipal Solid Waste Disposal Facilities: A Screening Tool

This guidance is intended to be a screening tool to be used by owners and operators of municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs) to rapidly determine their likelihood of preparing a successful no-migration demonstration. Such rapid screening is expected to save significant time and money when the MSWLF does not meet the applicable performance standards.

  • Preparing No-Migration Demonstrations for Municipal Solid Waste Disposal Facilities: A Screening Tool (pdf) (268.86 KB, February 1999, EPA530-R-99-008)
    EPA's established guidance to enable the owner or operator of a MSWLF to pursue the early decision-making stages of a no-migration demonstration as efficiently and inexpensively as possible.
