Intrinsic suitability. <br />(a) "Intrinsic suitability" of a land area or site means that, based on existing data on the inherent and <br />natural attributes, physical features, and location of the land area or site, there is no known reason why the <br />waste facility proposed to be located in the area or site cannot reasonably be expected to qualify for <br />permits in accordance with agency rules. Agency certification of intrinsic suitability shall be based on <br />data submitted to the agency by the proposing entity and data included by the administrative law judge in <br />the record of any public hearing on recommended certification, and applied against criteria in agency <br />rules and any additional criteria developed by the agency in effect at the time the proposing entity submits <br />the site for certification. <br />(b) In the event that all candidate sites selected by the board before May 3, 1984, are eliminated <br />from further consideration and a new search for candidate sites is commenced, "intrinsic suitability" of a <br />land area or site shall mean that, because of the inherent and natural attributes, physical features, and <br />location of the land area or site, the waste facility proposed to be located in the area or site would not be <br />likely to result in material harm to the public health and safety and natural resources and that therefore the <br />proposed facility can reasonably be expected to qualify for permits in accordance with agency rules. <br />Subd. 16. <br />[Repealed, 1997 c 7 art 1 s 261 <br />Subd. 17.
