Soil Management Sample Clauses
Soil Management. The procedures for management of the borrow pit and soil cut sections to assure uniform soil material shall be included in the QCP. This includes the procedures that shall be followed for the necessary adjustments in compaction because of a change in soil type.
Soil Management. All soil management plans (including, without limitation, those for screening, testing, treating and disposing of soils) shall be performed in accordance with EPA-approved plans to the extent required by the 106 Order.
Soil Management. The Owner acknowledges and agrees to undertake analytical testing for contamination of any soil to be removed from the site during redevelopment, and if these soils are found to be not in compliance with Ministry of the Environment soil standards for the intended land use, the Owner agrees to dispose, treat or recycle these materials at a waste disposal site or landfill licensed for that purpose by the Ministry of Environment. As outlined in the Project Agreement, the costs associated with testing, removal and disposal are the responsibility of the City.
Soil Management. 1. Contractor will perform the testing, excavation, handling, transportation and disposal of soils generated from all Work Sites in accordance with applicable Law and Buyer’s Policies and Procedures.
Soil Management. The following restrictions apply to soils on the Property:
(1) No activities that will disturb the soil (e.g., digging, excavation, grading, removal, trenching, filling, earth movement or mining), shall be allowed within the area defined in Exhibits A3 and B3 without prior written approval from the Regional Water Board. A soils management plan shall be prepared for Regional Water Board review and concurrence before conducting any intrusive activities in the area defined in Exhibits A3 and B3.
(2) Any soils brought to the surface by digging, grading, excavation, trenching or backfilling shall be managed in accordance with all applicable provisions of state and federal law, and in accordance with the soil management plan required in 4.02(1), above.
Soil Management. (a) No activities that will disturb the soil (e.g., excavation, grading, removal, trenching, filling, earth movement or mining) shall be allowed on the Restricted Property described in Exhibit B without a Soil Management Plan approved by the Department.
(b) Any contaminated soils brought from the Restricted Property to the surface by grading, excavation, trenching or backfilling shall be managed in accordance with all applicable provisions of state and federal law.
(c) The Owner shall provide the Department written notice at least fourteen (14) days prior to any building, filling, grading, mining or excavating at the Restricted Property.
Soil Management. The goal of the following soil management approach is two-fold; 1)responsibly manage residual and deminimus levels of chemical compounds protective of human health and the environment that are best supportive of greenhouse gas-friendly cleanup; and 2) be fiscally responsible to the citizens of Springfield to minimize the volume requiring encapsulation to prevent direct exposure along with minimizing off-site disposal. During development of this RAP, several considerations were made regarding the placement of soils on Sites 5 through 7, including physical site conditions such as flood plain elevation and location of concrete mounds. Additional considerations were also made related to the distribution of impacted soils across individual sites of West Xxxxxxx, including: Does the placement of this material and the project as a whole result in the consolidation of contaminated soil into a smaller footprint and the expansion of clean surface area; it does. Are the placement areas located in areas already contaminated; yes. All placement areas are over areas of impacted fill. What appear to be non-impacted areas may be inferred from some associated figures; however, impacted fill is located across the site with no designated non-impacted areas at this time. Is there a chance that soil under the placement areas would have to be excavated or remediated later to achieve closure of Sites 5 through 7; yes, in the area of G-18. These soils will be further characterized during the Site 5 Characterization for remedial design activities, prior to placement. Excavated soils will be loaded directly into dump trucks (or temporarily stockpiled) for off-site transport and disposal at the City of Springfield landfill or placement on Jordan Valley West Xxxxxxx Site 5 through 7. The goal is to landfill the soil with higher contaminant concentrations (soil from surrounding test pits TP-3 and TP-6) to the extent possible within the site budget. No excavated materials will be used as on-site backfill within the excavation. Since most of the soils are being placed on the western portions of West Xxxxxxx, the excavated soils were evaluated to determine if a representative concentration of the individual COCs for the Site is either above or below the Non-Residential RBTLs (see Representative Concentration tables provided in Appendix B). The representative concentration of the soil to be excavated was evaluated. Based on this review, the representative concentrations of lead and ...
Soil Management. Tracks, fence lines, gates and troughs should generally be sited to avoid stock-induced erosion and to avoid runoff directly into waterways. Where cultivation is required it is recommended that this be carried out in a manner to reduce soil wash into riparian areas and waterways. Winter stock management should aim to avoid soil compaction (pugging) on all land. Such management will help prevent soil erosion, nutrient loss and loss of soil structure. These soil issues often result in increased runoff rates and loss of production from the land.

Soil Management a. The Soil Stabilization section needs a sub-heading number.
b. When revising this section to incorporate the screen/stockpile/treat approach for TCLP soil, I suggest that 4000 mg/kg Pb be used as the threshold for diversion to the TCLP treatment stockpile instead of 5000. This would provide some conservatism to the handling of potential hazardous waste, while still keeping the threshold high enough that TCLP material is not overly diluted with non- hazardous soil in the stockpile.
c. Please revise the sampling scheme to include multiple pre-treatment composites of each stockpile. We discussed a minimum of 3 separate composites per stockpile, each composite made up of 5-10 different locations, resulting in unique composites. I am open to considering other sampling approaches if desired.
d. Please include both total and TCLP Pb in the analysis. In the event the stockpile does not fail TCLP, the totals may be needed to determine landfill vs. onsite consolidation. Total lead will be analyzed by XRF for all composite samples, see Section 7.2.1 for details.
e. Calculate the confidence interval for the mean of the TCLP composites and compare the upper confidence limit to the TCLP limit (5.0 mg/L). A confidence level of 90% will be acceptable. Based on some preliminary calculations with hypothetical results, there will likely be little difference between 90% and 95% intervals with a sample set of three unless the samples differ widely.
f. Post-treatment sampling to verify effectiveness of the treatment should also be done with composites, but multiple samples are not required following treatment. Stabilization of the type proposed typically reduces TCLP Pb values to very low levels, so there should be little uncertainty in the post-treatment data. Additional samples could be taken if the results are inconclusive.
Soil Management. To minimise sheet, soil slip and gully erosion on moderately steep-to-steep terrain (20-30 degree slopes), stock management should aim to prevent the incidence of bare ground, especially on steeper slopes. Tracks, fence lines, gates and troughs should generally be sited to avoid stock-induced erosion or destabilisation of adjoining slopes. Tracks should be constructed and maintained to control runoff and prevent surface erosion. For flat to gently rolling terrain (up to 15 degree slopes) the above practises also apply. Where cultivation is required it is recommended that this be carried out on the contour with minimum tillage to address potential soil erosion. Winter stock management should aim to avoid soil compaction (pugging) on all land. Such management will help prevent soil erosion, nutrient loss and loss of soil structure. These soil issues often result in increased runoff rates and loss of production from the land.
