Title 27 of the California Code of Regulations (27 CCR), Section 20925 prescribes standards for landfill gas (LFG) monitoring networks. Disposal site operators may request alternatives to the prescriptive standards if the operator can demonstrate sufficient technical justification that the alternatives are protective of public health and safety and the environment. There have been numerous questions from landfill operators and local enforcement agencies (LEA) on technical issues related to the implementation of these regulations for active landfills.
