15 How will pre‐existing soil contamination be handled

Soil Management Plan was drafted for the sole purpose of dealing with pre‐existing soil contamination.

16 Who is responsible for testing and how much testing?

Contractor. Testing depends on whether it is getting clean confirmation samples for the UST grave, or disposal samples, per the Soil Management Plan.
