The inventory shall be submitted every two years beginning January 31, 1986. Such inventory shall be available to the public as provided in [section 6927(b) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section6927/b&num=0&edition=prelim). Information previously submitted by a Federal agency under [section 9603 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section9603&num=0&edition=prelim), or under section 6925 or 6930 of this title, or under this section need not be resubmitted except that the agency shall update any previous submission to reflect the latest available data and information. The inventory shall include each of the following: (1) A description of the location of each site at which any such treatment, storage, or disposal has taken place before the date on which permits are required under [section 6925 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section6925&num=0&edition=prelim) for such storage, treatment, or disposal, and where hazardous waste has been disposed, a description of hydrogeology of the site and the location of withdrawal wells and surface water within one mile of the site. (2) Such information relating to the amount, nature, and toxicity of the hazardous waste in each site as may be necessary to determine the extent of any health hazard which may be associated with any site. (3) Information on the known nature and extent of environmental contamination at each site, including a description of the monitoring data obtained. (4) Information concerning the current status of the site, including information respecting whether or not hazardous waste is currently being treated, stored, or disposed of at such site (and if not, the date on which such activity ceased) and information respecting the nature of any other activity currently carried out at such site. (5) A list of sites at which hazardous waste has been disposed and environmental monitoring data has not been obtained, and the reasons for the lack of monitoring data at each site. (6) A description of response actions undertaken or contemplated at contaminated sites. (7) An identification of the types of techniques of waste treatment, storage, or disposal which have been used at each site. (8) The name and address and responsible Federal agency for each site, determined as of the date of preparation of the inventory. **(b) Environmental Protection Agency program** If the Administrator determines that any Federal agency under subsection (a) is not adequately providing information respecting the sites referred to in subsection (a), the Administrator shall notify the chief official of such agency. If within ninety days following such notification, the Federal agency has not undertaken a program to adequately provide such information, the Administrator shall carry out the inventory program for such agency.

The Admin- istrator (or the State) shall require the filing, within six months of receipt of such notice, of an application for a final determination regard- ing the issuance of a permit for each facility submitting such notice. (3) In the case of any unit in which the liner and leachate collection system has been in- stalled pursuant to the requirements of this sec- tion and in good faith compliance with the Ad- ministrator’s regulations and guidance docu- ments governing liners and leachate collection systems, no liner or leachate collection system which is different from that which was so in- stalled pursuant to this section shall be required for such unit by the Administrator when issuing the first permit under section 6925 of this title to such facility, except that the Administrator shall not be precluded from requiring installa- tion of a new liner when the Administrator has reason to believe that any liner installed pursu- ant to the requirements of this section is leak- ing. The Administrator may, under section 6924 of this title, amend the requirements for liners and leachate collection systems required under this section as may be necessary to provide ad- ditional protection for human health and the en- vironment.
