2. Land use history of the local material location and surrounding property
3. Sampling protocol
4. Number of samples per volume of local material
5. QA and QC requirements and procedures
6. Qualifications of sampling personnel
7. Stockpile history
8. Name and address of the analytical laboratory that will perform the chemical analyses
9. Analyses that will be performed for lead and pH
10. Other analyses that will be performed for possible hazardous constituents based on:
10.1. Source property history
10.2. Land use adjacent to source property
10.3. Constituents of concern in the ground water basin where the job site is located
The plan must be sealed and signed by an engineer who is registered as a civil engineer in the State or a professional geologist licensed as a professional geologist by the State.
If the plan requires revisions, the Engineer provides comments. Submit a revised plan within 7 days of receiving comments. Allow 7 days for the review.
6-1.03B(3) Analytical Test Results
At least 15 days before placing local material, submit analytical test results for each local material obtained from a noncommercial source or a source not regulated under CA jurisdiction. The analytical test results must include:
1. Certification signed by an engineer who is registered as a civil engineer in the State or a professional geologist licensed as a professional geologist by the State stating:
The analytical testing described in the local material plan has been performed. I performed a statistical analysis of the test results of the analytical testing described in the local material plan using the US EPA's ProUCL software with the applicable 95 percent upper confidence limit. I certify that the material from the local material source is suitable for unrestricted use at the job site and the material has met the following criteria:
1. Has a pH above 5.0.
2. Does not contain soluble lead in concentrations equal to or greater than 5 mg/L as determined by the Waste Extraction Test (WET) Procedures, 22 CA Code of Regs § 66261.24(a)(2) App II.
3. Does not contain lead in concentrations above 80 mg/kg total lead.
4. Is not contaminated with the other constituents of concern identified in the local material plan in average concentration (95 percent upper confidence limit) in excess of these constituents' respective San Francisco Bay RWQCB commercial/industrial environmental screening levels ESLs, except for arsenic.
5. Does not exceed the maximum allowed concentration limit table listed in Section 6- 1.03B(4).
2. Chain of custody of samples.
3. Analytical results no older than 1 year.
4. Statistical analysis of the data using US EPA’s ProUCL software with a 95 percent upper confidence limit.
5. Comparison of sample results and 95 percent upper confidence limits to hazardous waste concentration thresholds and the applicable San Francisco Bay RWQCB environmental screening levels (ESLs) given in direct exposure human health risk levels (Table S-1), commercial/industrial:
Shallow soil exposure, under Summary of Soil ESLs tables (2019 Rev 2). The Summary of Soil ESLs tables (2019 Rev 2) can be obtained by sending an email to ESLs.ESLs@waterboards.ca.gov with "Request for ESL Documents" in the subject line.
6-1.03B(4) Sample and Analysis
Sample and analyze local material from a (1) noncommercial source or (2) a source not regulated under CA jurisdiction:
1. Before bringing the local material to the job site
2. As described in the local material plan
3. Under US EPA Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods (SW-846)
The sample collection must be designed to generate a data set representative of the entire volume of proposed local material.
Before excavating at (1) a noncommercial material source or (2) a source not regulated under CA jurisdiction, collect the minimum number of samples, and perform the minimum number of analytical tests for the corresponding maximum volume of local material as shown in the following table:
Minimum Number of Samples and Analytical Tests for Local Material
Maximum volume of imported borrow (cu yd)
Minimum number of samples and analytical tests
< 5,000 8
5,000–10,000 12 for the first 5,000 cu yd plus 1 for each additional 1,000 cu yd or portion thereof
10,0…
