Soil Handling, Transportation and Disposal. The Certificate Holder will direct the Contractor to dispose of all excavated material from the site that is not reused as backfill. Construction and demolition (“C&D”) debris including: concrete and other masonry waste (including steel or fiberglass reinforcing embedded in concrete), asphalt pavement, brick, soil or rock removed from the site as part of construction will be disposed of in accordance with Certificate Holder protocols at a State- permitted facility. The disposal facility will come from a list of PSEG Long Island approved disposal facilities and will comply with all environmental regulations set by the state in question’s environmental agency (i.e. New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC)). This material will not be commingled with any other types of waste. If C&D materials are found to contain industrial waste (coal, coal ash, municipal ash, cinders, or refuse as defined in 6 NYCRR Part 360-1.2(b)(88)) it will be handled as industrial waste. Soil that has been deemed to be contaminated material will also be disposed of at a State-permitted end-use facility. This material will not be commingled with any other types of waste. Disposal requirements will be established with the facility prior to commencement of construction. Disposal characterization samples will be collected in accordance with disposal facility permits and all local, State and Federal regulations. Prior to commencement of the project, the permitted disposal facility will provide the Contractor their operating permit, including the required sampling frequency, analysis of the facility and insurance certificates. The Certificate Holder will provide the disposal facility with the sampling results and, prior to the material being transported, the facility will provide the Certificate Holder with an approval letter stating that the analytical data has been reviewed, the results are within the facilities permittable limits, and the facility is allowed to accept the material under the terms of the current operating permit. Prior to disposal of any materials requiring classification sampling under receiving facility operating permits, the Environmental Compliance Manager will send NYSDEC and DPS Staff acceptance criteria sampling results and copies of approval letters from receiving facilities indicating that the analytical data has been reviewed and the facility is allowed to receive such materials under the terms of their current operating permit.
