Such plan shall include, but not be limited to, provisions for (A) preserving all portions of the site which are not needed immediately for ash residue disposal or site preparation, (B) public use of the site at times and in a manner consistent with the use of the site for ash residue disposal, and (C) establishment of buffer areas, including, but not limited to, buffers between areas of the site used for ash residue disposal and residential dwellings and any surface waters. The plan shall provide for site management that will not inhibit postclosure monitoring and maintenance and (2) a plan providing for the transportation of ash residue to the site by rail or by state highway, dedicated limited access roads or local roads. Transportation by rail or on state highway or other limited access roads shall be preferred to transportation on local roads.
