When the volume of excess soil to be removed from the project area is determined to be 350 m3 or less, the Soil Quality Standard Tables for the soil are governed by O.Reg. 153/04. When the excess soil volume exceeds 350 m3, the Soil Quality Standard Tables for the soil are governed by O.Reg. 406/19. ' The number of samples to be collected from the in-situ or stockpiled volume of soil, as applicable, that is determined to be excess and is to be removed from the site is governed by the 111 Soil Rules of O.Reg. 406/19. Specifically, the number of soil samples required are outlined in PART I, Section B, Sub-Section 3, Paragraph 15 (In-Situ Sampling) and Paragraph 16 (Stockpile Sampling) and are based on the volume of excess soil in-situ or ex-situ (stockpiled). 1 All suitable material is to be used on-site. All unsuitable and surplus excavated materials shall become property of the Contractor and hauled from the site. Under this item, the Contractor 111 shall be prepared to remove all excavated material from site, to re-use all excavated I ' SP-5 ■ material, and to remove/ re-use any portion of excavated material. An estimate of the amount of fill anticipated to require removal from site is included in the form of tender for each ' option. Excavation and placement of salvaged material For the lump sum bid the Contractor shall supply all labour, equipment, and materials to complete all excavation for the structure, and placement of suitable salvaged material.

If required because of over-excavation at the structure, suitable excavated material may be placed and re-compacted below the excavation limit shown or used to build out the shoulders. Suitable excavated material shall be stockpiled and used as road embankment fill or backfill. The Contractor is to note that no extra payment will be made for excavated material used as road fill or backfill. If there is an insufficient amount of suitable excavated material on site additional Granular B will be used. ' Suitability for re-use on site is dependent on subsurface conditions, weather, and the Contractor's methods. Material deemed, by a geotechnical engineer hired by the Contractor, to be suitable for backfill and road fill must be used as such if approved by the Owner and shall ' not be hauled off-site. Stockpiled material shall be stored outside of the floodplain above the anticipated 25-year ' level. Disposal of Soils (Uncontaminated and non-hazardous) For the unitprice bid the Contractor shall supply all labour, equipment and materials required to PP Yq dispose of uncontaminated and non-hazardous excess or unsuitable material.

The conditions of O. Reg. 406/19 require a suitable reuse site to have a beneficial purpose for the material being imported and the quantity and quality of the excess soil must be suitable and placed for that purpose. The documentation detailing the receiving site owner's written acceptance of the material must be provided to the Contract Administrator prior to removing any excess material from site. OPSS.MUNI 180.04.01.01 Notification of Site Selection, and Property Owner Release , A copy of the completed form OPSF 180-1, Site Selection Notification for Stockpiling Materials Managed Through Re-Use, or OPSF 180-2, Site Selection Notification for Material Managed as Disposable Fill or both shall be submitted to the Contract Administrator and the property owner at the pre-construction meeting.

Reuse Site options may include, but may not be limited to: • Other development projects, in accordance with the Rules for Soil Management and Excess Soil Quality Standards ("Soil Rules") • Site Alteration Permit Properties (SAPPs) having appropriate approval to accept such ' salt-impacted soil; and • Aggregate pits having appropriate approval to accept such salt-impacted soil. The deposit of this material on a Reuse Site is also subject to the following conditions: • The Reuse Site must provide written consent to accept the soil • The intended Reuse Site must be made aware of the elevated levels of SAR, so that they may dispose of, or place, the soil appropriately and in accordance with the Soil Rules • The Reuse Site must have a beneficial purpose for the material being imported and the quantity of soil must be suitable and placed for that purpose. Consultation with a geotechnical engineer or qualified person may be required. ' • The moisture content of the material is suitable for transportation. • The excess soil must be finally placed no later than two years after it is deposited at the Reuse Site. ' Other considerations should include: ' • Ensuring appropriate drainage patterns are maintained during and following placement at the Reuse Site. • Ensuring the protection of natural heritage features (wetlands and woodlands) during the and following placement at the receiving site, including the use of erosion controls. Alternatively, these soils could also be transferred to Class 1 or Class 2 Soil Management Sites or a Local Waste Transfer Facility as per OPSS.MUNI 180.07.05 Conditions on Management by Disposal as Non-Hazardous Solid Industrial or Commercial Waste OPSS.MUNI 180.07.05 Conditions on Management by Disposal as Non-Hazardous Solid Industrial or Commercial Waste(Above the Table 1 Soils Standards under O.Reg 153/04 as amended).

Different sampling requirements apply to soil that is sampled from stockpiles versus in-situ, refer ' to PART I, Section B, Sub-Section 3, Paragraph 15 & 16 of of O.Reg. 406/19 for more details. Samples shall be tested for petroleum hydrocarbons (F 1 through F4) including BTEX, metals (antimony, arsenic, barium, beryllium, boron, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, molybdenum, nickel, selenium, silver, thallium, uranium, vanadium and zinc), sodium adsorption ration (SAR) and electrical conductivity (EC). , The soil samples shall be collected immediately upon commencement of work on site or as soon as possible following award of the Contract by the Owner. The Contractor is responsible for collecting and submitting the required number of soil samples required by the Regulations prior to the Contractor removing any excess soil from the site. The subsurface soil condition and environmental quality of the soils within the work area may vary between and beyond the sampled locations. If soils are encountered during the construction activities that appear to have been environmentally impacted by contaminants and do not otherwise match the analytical results and testing classifications of the previous sampling reports, these soils should be segregated into separate stockpiles (plastic sheeting placed below and above the stockpile) and inspected at that time to determine appropriate sampling, handling and/or disposal requirements. The Contractor shall provide to the Contract Administrator an operating procedure that outlines what must occur if any person working in the project area makes an observation during soil excavation, including any visual or olfactory observation, that ' suggests that the soil being excavated may be contaminated. The requirements of the procedure are to follow O.Reg. 406/19 and be provided to the Contract Administrator at the Pre- Construction meeting.
