(3) and (4).

(3) The owner or operator shall implement immediate or interim actions in accordance with ch. NR 708 if warranted or directed by the department. If required by the department, the owner or operator shall develop a site investigation workplan and a site investigation report in accordance with ss. NR 716.05 to 716.11 and 716.15 to 716.17. If a site investigation report is submitted under s. NR 716.15, it shall include proof of financial responsibility to comply with s. NR 520.05 (1).
