Contaminated Soil Transport and Treatment Request Form (PDF 37K, added 7/22/2009) – Complete and submit this form to the ADEC Prevention and Emergency Response Program whenever contaminated soil from a spill site is transported offsite for treatment (e.g., thermal desorption or bioremediation) or disposal. The form must be submitted for ADEC approval prior to transport of the soil from the incident site. Contaminated soil shall be transported as a covered load in compliance with 18 AAC 60.015. Note: Bonded treatment facilities are allowed to co-mingle contaminated soil for treatment under their approved facility operations plan. Post-treatment soil samples are collected and analyzed at regular intervals to insure that the contaminants are successfully treated. Because the post-treatment analytical results for co-mingled soils are provided directly to ADEC, the Responsible Party does not have to provide a separate copy of the post-treatment analytical results as indicated in the form.
