Identification of Tanks With Hazardous Waste Sludge and Residue
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Information on the hazardous waste
characteristics of sludge in tanks should be
provided by the activity. If not, sampling and
analysis must be conducted during the 0 to 35
percent design stage to properly define scope and
costs.

TEMPORARY CONTAINMENT OF EXCAVATED SOIL
Provide temporary containment area near the excavated area. Cover
containment area with 0.75 mm 30 mil polyethylene sheeting. Place
excavated soil on the impervious barrier and cover with 0.15 mm 6 mil
polyethylene sheeting. Provide straw bale berm around the outer limits of
the containment area and cover with polyethylene sheets. Secure edges of
sheets to keep the polyethylene sheeting in place.

EXCAVATION
[Provide Contracting Officer with written documentation, no later than 30
days before work begins, that proper State or local authorities have been
notified.] Notify the Contracting Officer at least 48 hours prior to start
of tank removal work. Stage operations to minimize the time that tank
excavation is open and the time that contaminated soil is exposed to the
weather. Provide protection measures around the excavation area to prevent
water runoff and to contain the soil within the excavation area.
