Not sure what ADEQ regs you looked at, but they are not the right ones. You should be looking at this: http://www.azdeq.gov/environ/water/wastewater/download/badctmanual.pdf

2. Leach Testing
A. General
Leach testing should be conducted on a sufficient number of representative samples of waste rock, tailing, or other applicable wastes to determine the potential types and levels of pollutants that may be leached from waste materials under the effects of rainfall or run-on percolating through the material. (In cases where process solutions and/or tailing solutions are available, these solutions may be analyzed and leach testing may not be necessary.) The results of leach testing may be used in conjunction with the acid-base accounting data to aid in the engineering, designing and material selection of the facility. Sufficient samples should be collected for leach testing to adequately characterize the waste material.

While leach testing may be conducted by one or more of the following procedures, the Synthetic Precipitation Leaching Procedure (SPLP) is the preferred approach.

By the way, the "source" is not pre-1982. The tailings were exempt as long as they were left alone. As soon as Joel moved the tailings, that re-set the clock, and they are considered current and therefore regulated. Call ADEQ to confirm this, I do know what I am talking about.
