TRANSFER STATION HAS NOT BEEN CLOSED IN A MANNER THAT PREVENTS
EROSION, HEALTH AND SAFETY HAZARDS, NUISANCES, AND POLLUTION;

(II)  SPECIFIES IN THE NOTICE THE DEFICIENCIES
IN THE CLOSING THAT MUST BE CORRECTED;

(III)  GIVES THE PERMIT HOLDER AND THE CORPORATE
SURETY A REASONABLE OPPORTUNITY TO CORRECT THE DEFICIENCIES AND
TO CLOSE THE LANDFILL, INCINERATOR, OR TRANSFER STATION IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGULATIONS OF THE DEPARTMENT; AND

(IV)  AUTHORIZES THE LOCAL GOVERNING BODY TO

ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGULATIONS OF THE DEPARTMENT.

(2) THE LOCAL GOVERNING BODY SHALL USE BOND PROCEEDS,
CASH, OR THE PROCEEDS OF OTHER SECURITY TO PAY THE COST OF
PROPERLY CLOSING THE LANDFILL, INCINERATOR, OR TRANSFER STATION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former HE § 9-213(c)
and (d).

Throughout this section, references to "other
security" are added to the present references to
"bond" to conform to the provisions of subsection
(a)(l)(ii) of this section, which allows a permit
applicant to deposit cash or securities with the
governing body of the local jurisdiction instead of
filing a bond. No change of substance is intended.

In subsection (a)(1) of this section, the reference   to

"Secretary" is substituted for the former reference   to

"Department" to conform to the wording of § 9-204 of
this subtitle.

Also in subsection (a)(1) of this section, the words
"private person" are substituted for the former words
"nonmunicipal corporation or ... other private
organization or person" for clarity in light of the
definition of "person" in § 9-201 of this subtitle.

In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the phrase
"requirements of this section" is substituted for the
former reference to "requirements of this subsection"
to correct an apparent error in Chapter 713 of the
Acts of 1986.

9-212. SAME — OPTION TO PURCHASE; BINDING OBLIGATION.

(A) RIGHT OF COUNTY OR MUNICIPAL CORPORATION.
