The register of deeds shall record the copy of the order of approval and index it in the grantor index under the name of the owner or owners of the landfill site.

The chairman of the State Board or his duly authorized representative shall certify the copy of the order of approval, and this certificate need not be acknowledged nor probated. The order of approval may not take effect until the certified copy has been filed as required by this section."
