1)         Physical characteristics, materials of construction, and dimensions of the unit;

2)         Detailed plans and engineering reports describing how the unit will be located, designed, constructed, operated, maintained, monitored, inspected, and closed to comply with the requirements of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 724.701 and 724.702; and

Adm. Code 724.701. The Agency must follow the procedures for incomplete applications in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 705.122;

c)         Information on the potential pathways of exposure of humans or environmental receptors to hazardous waste or hazardous constituents and on the potential magnitude and nature of such exposures;

d)         For any treatment unit, a report on a demonstration of the effectiveness of the treatment based on laboratory or field data; and
