Soil. 2.1.1 Bulk Sample Pick‐Up hour $ 60.00
Soil. This classification shall comprise all kinds of soil, turf, sand, silt, loam, clay, mud, peat, black cotton soil, soft shale or loose moorum, a mixture of these and similar materials. All soils covered in ordinary and hard soils shall be covered in this category. Removal of gravel or any other nodular material having dimension in any one direction not exceeding 75 mm occurring in such strata shall be deemed to be covered under this category.
Soil. The Contracting Parties shall, in view of the role of soil in the functioning of natural ecosystems, take measures, wherever possible towards soil conservation, improvement and rehabilitation; they shall, in particular, endeavour to take steps to prevent soil erosion and other forms of degradation, and promote measures which safeguard the processes of organic decomposition. and thereby its continuing fertility. To that effect, they shall, in particular, endeavour to
Soil. Ingestion of soil while feeding or preening can be a significant contaminant exposure route for many terrestrial vertebrates (Xxxxx and Fries, 2003). Data were found for a few of our study sites that seem to document uptake of metals from ingested soil or sediment (e.g., lead, copper and zinc in small mammals near Fort XxXxxxx NM & HS and National Mall & Memorial Parks; Xxxxxxx, 1979; Xxxxx et al., 1990). Clearly, many pollutants deposited in soil are taken up by plant and invertebrate food items of terrestrial vertebrates, however, empirical data documenting trophic transfer were not available for the park units in this study.

Fish Consumption Advisories With the exception of Appomattox Court House NHP, fish consumption advisories are in effect near or at each of the other 22 study units. The vast majority of these advisories are related to mercury and PCBs, however, these consumption advisories are statewide. These human consumption advisories are germane as many terrestrial vertebrates at the study sites are piscivorous.
Soil. The Contractor shall not cause any adverse impact to site soils, gravel, or other unpaved areas. It is strictly prohibited to discharge materials in any amount directly to soils or other unpaved areas. Examples include, but are not limited to oil, lubricants, paints, wastewater, degreasers, soaps, detergents, or any regulated materials. Proper disposal routes for any such materials should be addressed with the PPG Project Manager and site Environmental Engineer prior to performing the work.
Soil. All earth materials, organic or inorganic, which have resulted from natural processes such as weathering, decay, and chemical action of in situ rock or the deposition of unconsolidated material in which more than 35 percent by weight will pass a No. 200 sieve.
Soil. During operations under this Contract, the Contractor shall take such precautions as necessary to minimize, insofar as possible, soil erosion and damage to the soil and wetlands. Equipment shall not be operated when ground conditions are such that excessive damage will result. Water bars and lead-off drainage satisfactory to Forester shall be installed on all skid roads and temporary roads that have potential to create erosion. Erosion prone and exposed soil shall be mulched or seeded by the contractor. Contractor shall be responsible for all such mitigation expenses deemed necessary by Forester. Forested wetlands should not be entered, especially during periods of significantly wet soil conditions that will result in soil compaction. Ideally, trees will be directionally felled and line skidded. If entry is required during drier periods, it must be pre- authorized and should be limited to absolute minimum levels. Skid trail entries shall be mitigated by contractor. Un-permitted equipment entries will be fined at a rate of $100 per foot of skid trail and contractor shall bear all mitigation responsibilities.
Soil. All footing must extend at least 24 inches into undisturbed natural soil compacted to at least 90 percent density. Soil should be dampened prior to placing concrete in footings. A soils report, completed by a licensed engineer, may be required. # 4 bar in the center of the wall at top & mid height of wall.

Soil. Until such time as the Accessible Borrow Area is fully permitted and available to CONTRACTOR for the excavation of soil, CITY shall supply all soil required for Facility operations (and/or Closure of the Facility) or reimburse CONTRACTOR for soil that CITY has not provided and that is required for the operation of the Facility (or Closure of the Facility), all subject to the provisions of Section 2.6.5.
Soil. The primary purpose of soil sampling is to identify potential contamination source areas, evaluate whether a soil vapor pathway is present, begin delineating the extent of soil contamination at the East Xxxx site, and attempt to determine if additional contamination source areas are contributing contamination at the East Xxxx site. The following subsections describe the sampling collection procedures and methods that will be used during the Phase I field investigation. During the Phase I field investigation, soil samples will be collected from 30 borings in the area west of the Great Miami River. Before drilling begins, public utility clearance to each work site will be conducted. SulTRAC also anticipates hiring a company to survey the sanitary sewer line in the vicinity of Franklin Street via camera or video along the entire length before any intrusive activities begin in this area. All soil borings will be advanced using direct-push technology (DPT) methods. Soil cores will be collected continuously from the 30 borings in the potential source areas. The borings will be advanced to the top of the uppermost water bearing zone (about 15 to 20 ft bgs). The 30 soil borings shown in Figures 5 and 8 will be located as follows: • Open lots in the vicinity of Walnut and Main Street – four locations • Hobart Cabinet – four locations • Various possible source locations within the plume area – Market, Mulberry, Clay, Xxxxxxxx and Water Streets – seven locations, • Vicinity of Clay, Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx Streets – five locations • Franklin Street between Union and Counts - three locations • Additional locations along sanitary sewer – up to five locations • Background/off site (west of State Route 55/Market Street and southwest of Canal Street) – three locations. These locations may be modified based on (1) initial data gathered during the baseline groundwater sampling event and sewer inspection, (2) the presence of underground or overhead utilities, (3) access agreements, and (4) information obtained from other soil borings advanced during Phase I activities. SulTRAC will attempt to locate borings in public right of ways to the extent possible; however, some borings likely will be located on private property. SulTRAC assumes that EPA will obtain access permission from private property owners when necessary. The soil borings will be advanced by DPT methods using a Geoprobe, AMS PowerProbe, or similar direct- push rig. Soil cores will be collected using a MacroCore sam...
