No person shall construct, operate, or modify a solid waste management facility in the Commonwealth without a permit issued by the director unless otherwise specified in subsection D of this section or 9VAC20-81-410.\n\nB. Each solid waste management facility permit shall be limited to one site and shall be nontransferable between sites.\n\nC. Issuance of a new permit is required when there is:\n\n1. Any new solid waste management facility;\n\n2. Any change in design or process of a solid waste management facility that will, in the opinion of the director, result in a substantially different type of facility;\n\n3. Any expansion beyond the facility boundary, expansion of the waste management boundary or increase in the capacity of the facility (includes  expansions) specified in the existing permit; or\n\n4. Any expansion beyond the facility boundary for remedial purposes.
