does not include land-based production units.
(93) Land treatment facility--A facility or part of
a facility at which solid waste or hazardous waste is applied onto
or incorporated into the soil surface and that is not a corrective
action management unit; such facilities are disposal facilities if
the waste will remain after closure.
(94) Landfill--A disposal facility or part of a facility
where solid waste or hazardous waste is placed in or on land and which
is not a pile, a land treatment facility, a surface impoundment, an
injection well, a salt dome formation, a salt bed formation, an underground

components in the liquid, that has percolated through or drained from
solid waste or hazardous waste.
(97) Leak-detection system--A system capable of detecting
the failure of either the primary or secondary containment structure

accumulated liquid in the secondary containment structure. Such a
system must employ operational controls (e.g., daily visual inspections
for releases into the secondary containment system of aboveground
tanks) or consist of an interstitial monitoring device designed to
detect continuously and automatically the failure of the primary or
secondary containment structure or the presence of a release of solid
waste or hazardous waste into the secondary containment structure.

who maintains a current license through the Texas Board of Professional
Geoscientists in accordance with its requirements for professional
practice.
(99) Liner--A continuous layer of natural or man-made

Waste and Primary Exporters of Hazardous Waste) and the applicable
requirements of 40 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 262 - 265.
