Amends the Environmental Protection Act. Defines "CCR management unit" as any area of land at any facility with a CCR surface impoundment, on which any noncontainerized accumulation of CCR is received, is placed, or is otherwise managed, and that is not itself a CCR surface impoundment. Provides that the term "CCR management unit" does not include CCR used in a manner that meets the definition of coal combustion by-product, unless the owner or operator, or the Agency, determines that the CCR is causing or contributing to a statistically significant concentration of one or more constituents above the groundwater protection standard established by the Board. Provides that no later than February 8, 2027, the owner or operator of a CCR surface impoundment must submit to the Agency a copy of the Facility Evaluation Reports Part 1 and 2. Provides that the Board shall adopt rules establishing permit requirements, reporting, financial assurance, and closure and post-closure care requirements for CCR management units. Provides that the owner or operator of a CCR management unit shall pay an initial fee of $75,000 for each CCR management unit by July 1, 2027 and an annual fee of $25,000 for each CCR management unit that has not completed closure; and $15,000 for each CCR management unit that has not completed post-closure care, beginning July 1, 2028.
