At the request of a unit of local government to which a siting approval application for a new pollution control facility for the storage, treatment or disposal of hazardous waste has been made, pursuant to Section 39.2 of the Environmental Protection Act, the Department shall evaluate the public health implications of such proposed facility. Such request shall be made to the Department within 14 days of the filing of the application.
