Completed soil tracking forms with all the applicable attachments can normally be approved within five working days. Photocopies of the form may be used. Attachments to the soil tracking form include all documentation pertaining to characterization and disposal of the soil such as: site maps, sampling locations, screening data, analytical results and chain of custody, disposal receipts, weigh bills and manifests. For contaminated soil, provide a copy of proof of acceptance by the destination disposal facility. EM approval for the intended soil movement is obtained when the soil program office signs off on part two of the soil tracking form

2.4.4.3.6. Copies of Records to be provided to the Contracting Officer:

a. Weigh bills for soil transported to a disposal facility

b. If soil is classified as hazardous in accordance with state or federal regulations:

2.4.4.4. Soil Classification:

2.4.4.4.1. Hazardous: Soil is classified as hazardous if it meets the definitions found in Title 22 California Code of Regulations or 40 Code of Federal Regulations. This type soil must be managed as a hazardous waste under these regulations.

2.4.4.4.2. Clean: Soil may be classified as clean by the Travis Environmental Soil Program office if:

a. It meets site-specific parameters for contamination that the base has negotiated with the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board.

b. It originates from an area where contamination is not suspected.

c. It is analyzed and no contaminants above background levels are present.

2.4.4.4.3. Designated Waste: Soil which does not fall into the categories of hazardous or clean soil, contains some degree of contamination and is a designated waste per Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations. Excess designated waste soil must always be disposed of in a permitted off-base soil disposal facility.

2.4.4.5. Disposal: No soil may be removed from the base unless it is targeted for disposal at a permitted disposal facility. Only EM approved disposal facilities may be used for soil disposal.

This applies to both contaminated and uncontaminated soil

2.4.4.6. Soil Manifesting: All soil, removed from the base shall be manifested by the Soil Program office. Make an appointment for manifesting by calling the soil program office at least 5 working days prior to the date the soil is to be transported.

These include: hazardous or non-hazardous waste manifests, land disposal restrictions, waste profiles, laboratory analyses and proof of acceptance by the destination disposal facility (for contaminated soil).

2.4.4.7. Backfill: Contaminated soil may be reused for backfill on construction sites, at the same location it was removed from. It may not be spread around the construction site. For Underground Storage Tank work the county environmental management office will determine the extent of soil that must be removed or reused. In any case, all excess contaminated soil shall be removed from the base.

2.4.4.8. Soil Stockpiles: Contaminated soil stockpiles will be underlain and covered with High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) to prevent leaching of contamination into the ground, contamination of storm water or wind-blown dispersion. The contractor is responsible for installing and keeping soil stockpile coverings in good condition at all times.
