California AB28 addresses subsurface elevated temperature events at solid waste landfills, imposing requirements and penalties on landfill operators.

California AB28 creates a multiagency coordination group to address subsurface elevated temperature events at solid waste landfills. The bill mandates landfill operators to submit air monitoring and sampling plans, provide subsurface gas and waste temperature data, and post this information on their websites. The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery can become the enforcement agency for such landfills, imposing penalties of up to $100,000 per day for non-compliance.
