Management Requirements for Storing Remediation Waste

(1) All Remediation Waste shall be stored in a secure manner to prevent exposure to humans and the environment . (2) Where practicable, the stockpiling or consolidating of Remediation Waste near sensitive human health receptors such as public and private water supply wells or sensitive environmental receptors such as wetlands, surface water bodies or marine environments shall be avoided. (3) All Remediation Waste stored at the site of generation or at a temporary storage location shall be placed entirely on a base composed of an impermeable material, and shall be immediately covered with the same material or other suitable material so as to minimize the infiltration of precipitation, volatilization of contaminants and erosion of the stockpile. Any cover material used shall be properlysecured and possess the necessaryphysical strength to resist tearing by the wind. (4) Any failure of materials or procedures used in employing the base layer or cover layer as described in 310 CMR 40.0036(3) shall be immediately repaired, replaced or resecured so as to minimize precipitation infiltration, volatilization, and erosion/runoff of the Remediation Waste. (5) All soils when transported upon public roadways shall be covered to minimize fugitive dust, and where necessary truck tire and undercarriage washing shall be employed to minimize tracking of soils onto public roadways. (6) Movement and/or aeration of Remediation Waste stockpiles shall be limited to those activities that are necessary to manage such stockpiles in accordance with 310 CMR 40.0000. Landfarming of soil stockpiles is prohibited, unless appropriate steps have been taken to minimize and treat potential air emissions pursuant to 310 CMR 40.0049.
