Article 13
                  Closure and after-care procedures

     Member  States  shall take measures in order that, in accordance,
where appropriate, with the permit:
     (a) a landfill or part of it shall start the closure procedure:
     (i) when the relevant conditions stated in the permit are met; or
     (ii)  under  the authorisation of the competent authority, at the
request of the operator; or
     (iii) by reasoned decision of the competent authority;
     (b) a landfill or part of it may only be considered as definitely
closed  after  the competent authority has carried out a final on-site
inspection, has assessed all the reports submitted by the operator and
has  communicated  to  the operator its approval for the closure. This
shall  not  in any way reduce the responsibility of the operator under
the conditions of the permit;
     (c)  after  a  landfill  has been definitely closed, the operator
shall  be  responsible  for its maintenance, monitoring and control in
the  after-care  phase for as long as may be required by the competent
authority,  taking  into  account  the  time during which the landfill
could present hazards.
     The   operator  shall  notify  the  competent  authority  of  any
significant  adverse  environmental  effects  revealed  by the control
procedures and shall follow the decision of the competent authority on
the nature and timing of the corrective measures to be taken;
     (d)  for  as  long  as  the  competent authority considers that a
landfill  is  likely  to cause a hazard to the environment and without
prejudice   to  any  Community  or  national  legislation  as  regards
liability  of  the  waste  holder,  the  operator of the site shall be
responsible  for  monitoring  and  analysing landfill gas and leachate
from  the  site and the groundwater regime in the vicinity of the site
in accordance with Annex III.
