Payment for costs associated with soil removal,
transportation, and disposal must not exceed the amounts set forth in this
Section. Such costs must include, but are not limited to, those associated
with the removal, transportation, and disposal of contaminated soil exceeding
the applicable remediation objectives or visibly contaminated fill removed
pursuant to Section 734.210(f) of this Part, and the purchase, transportation,
and placement of material used to backfill the resulting excavation.
a) Payment
for costs associated with the removal, transportation, and disposal of
contaminated soil exceeding the applicable remediation objectives, visibly
contaminated fill removed pursuant to Section 734.210(f) of this Part, and
concrete, asphalt, or paving overlying such contaminated soil or fill must not
exceed a total of $57 per cubic yard.
1) Except
as provided in subsection (a)(2) of this Section, the volume of soil removed
and disposed must be determined by the following equation using the dimensions
of the resulting excavation:
(Excavation Length x Excavation
Width x Excavation Depth) x 1.05
A conversion factor of 1.5 tons
per cubic yard must be used to convert tons to cubic yards.
2) The
volume of soil removed from within four feet of the outside dimension of the
UST and disposed of pursuant to Section 734.210(f) of this Part must be
determined in accordance with Appendix C of this Part.

for costs associated with the purchase, transportation, and placement of
material used to backfill the excavation resulting from the removal and
disposal of soil must not exceed a total of $20 per cubic yard.
1) Except
as provided in subsection (b)(2) of this Section, the volume of backfill
material must be determined by the following equation using the dimensions of
the backfilled excavation:
(Excavation Length x Excavation
Width x Excavation Depth) x 1.05
A conversion factor of 1.5 tons
per cubic yard must be used to convert tons to cubic yards.
2) The
volume of backfill material used to replace soil removed from within four feet
of the outside dimension of the UST and disposed of pursuant to Section
734.210(f) of this Part must be determined in accordance with Appendix C of

c) Payment
for costs associated with the removal and subsequent return of soil that does
not exceed the applicable remediation objectives but whose removal is required
in order to conduct corrective action must not exceed a total of $6.50 per
cubic yard. The volume of soil removed and returned must be determined by the
following equation using the dimensions of the excavation resulting from the
removal of the soil:
(Excavation Length x Excavation
Width x Excavation Depth)
A conversion factor of 1.5 tons per
cubic yard must be used to convert tons to cubic yards.
