Originating Office: DOE Field Office, Waste Management Division Finding Aids: Document center databases Disposition AuthorityUnscheduled Series Description: This document describes the policy for using radiologically and chemically contaminated soil for other uses. It explains how each type is to be identified (as Radioactive Waste Soil, Restricted Use Soil, General Use Soil, or Unrestricted Use Soil in Clean Areas, Toxic Substances Control Act-Regulated Areas, Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act-Regulated Areas, or Resource Conservation and Recovery Act-Regulated Areas) and how the various types should be handled and used. A chart lists acceptable alpha activity levels in disintegrations per minute per square centimeter (dpm/cm2), beta/gamma activity levels in millirads per hour (mrad/h), and mixed isotopes and uranium concentrations in picocuries per gram (pCi/g) in radiologically contaminated soils.
