comply with a final enforcement order issued by the enforcement

action and those activities.
   (c) The board may adopt regulations, if necessary, setting forth
additional criteria for making expenditures from the State Solid

contract entered into by the board for the purposes of this article
is not subject to approval by the Department of General Services.

article, and the board shall not incur any obligation beyond the
extent to which money is expended from the State Solid Waste
Postclosure and Corrective Action Trust Fund pursuant to this
article.
   (f) The board shall, to the maximum extent feasible, recover from
the landfill owner or operator the amount of money expended from the

on the expended funds. The board shall deposit all funds recovered
pursuant to an action authorized by this section into the State Solid
Waste Postclosure and Corrective Action Trust Fund.
   (g) The amount of any cost incurred by the board pursuant to this
section is recoverable from the landfill owner or operator in a civil
action brought by the Attorney General pursuant to Section 40432.
