Draft guidelines for groundwater investigation and monitoring for landfills

  • identify issue/s of concern and reference the relevant section/s and page number/s in the guideline
  • succinctly provide information regarding your issue/s of concern
  • provide suggestions on how your issue/s of concern could be addressed
  • provide any other information that you deem necessary to be included or excluded from the guideline.
