Soil Sample Clauses

The 'Soil' clause defines the responsibilities and requirements related to the quality, condition, and handling of soil on a project site. It typically outlines standards for soil testing, remediation, or replacement if unsuitable soil is encountered, and may specify which party is responsible for costs associated with soil issues. This clause ensures that both parties understand their obligations regarding site preparation and helps prevent disputes over unexpected soil conditions, thereby allocating risk and clarifying procedures for addressing soil-related problems during construction.

Soil. The Contracting Parties shall, in view of the role of soil in the functioning of natural ecosystems, take measures, wherever possible towards soil conservation, improvement and rehabilitation; they shall, in particular, endeavour to take steps to prevent soil erosion and other forms of degradation, and promote measures which safeguard the processes of organic decomposition and thereby its continuing fertility. To that effect, they shall, in particular, endeavour to establish land use policies aimed at avoiding losses of Vegetation cover, substantial soil loss, and damages to the structure of the soil; take all necessary measures to control erosion, especially as it may affect coastal or freshwater ecosystems leading to siltation of downstream areas such as lakes or vulnerable ecosystems such as coral reefs, or damage critical habitats, in particular that of endangered or endemic species; take appropriate measures to rehabilitate eroded or degraded soils including rehabilitation of soil affected by mineral exploitation.
Soil. To Seller's actual knowledge without further inquiry, there are no defects or conditions of the soil which will impair the present use and operation of the Property. Seller has received no written notice of any discharges of materials from the Property into any “waters of the United States” as defined in 33 CFR § 328.3 (July 1, 2007 edition), and Seller has not received any written notice from the United States Army Corps of Engineers that such "waters of the United States" exist on the Property.
Soil. This classification shall comprise all kinds of soil, turf, sand, silt, loam, clay, mud, peat, black cotton soil, soft shale or loose moorum, a mixture of these and similar materials. All soils covered in ordinary and hard soils shall be covered in this category. Removal of gravel or any other nodular material having dimension in any one direction not exceeding 75 mm occurring in such strata shall be deemed to be covered under this category.
Soil. 2.1.1 Bulk Sample Pick‐Up hour $ 60.00
Soil. Seller has caused preliminary soils reports for septic testing to be prepared for the Idarado Legacy Project area by ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, P.E., consulting geotechnical engineer, of which Buyer has received a summary for its review and which Buyer acknowledges is preliminary only, and cannot be relied upon by Buyer for construction on the Property. Varying soil conditions exist within the Property, which may require different construction techniques. As part of any Design Review Committee Submission for building plan approvals for the Property, Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, shall deliver a site specific soils report for the homesite on the Property.
Soil. Order of the Minister of Waters, Forests and Environmental Protection No. 756/1997 on the approval of the Environmental Pollution Assessment Regulation, with subsequent amendments and additions. These regulations are not limitative. If environmental protection problems arise when the Contract is carried out, the Provider and the Beneficiary shall establish measures which comply with the legislation in force and prevent pollution.
Soil. CSI acknowledges that, as a result of the provisions of this SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT, it is releasing KAISER from any responsibility that it may otherwise have for any expenses, damages or liabilities incurred or to be incurred with respect to the investigation, remediation or existence of any substances released on or in the soil on the CSI PROPERTY as may exist on the date of this SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT or as the soil of the CSI PROPERTY may be affected by releases predating this SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT. KAISER acknowledges that, as a result of the provisions of this SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT, it is releasing CSI from any responsibility that it may otherwise have for any expenses, damages or liabilities incurred or to be incurred with respect to the investigation, remediation or existence of any substances released on or in the soil on the KAISER PROPERTY as may exist on the date of this SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT or as the soil of the KAISER PROPERTY may be affected by releases predating this SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT.
Soil. Surficial soils consist of mixed fine to coarse sand and medium to coarse gravel. Impenetrable gravel, consisting of angular and rounded medium to coarse gravel ranging from 1 to 8 inches in thickness, covers the surface of the site. Fine to medium-fine sand with occasional silty to loamy layers (particularly near the surface at 6 to 12 inches below ground surface [bgs]) were encountered across the facility ranging from 12 inches bgs to 10.5 feet to 14 feet bgs. Cobbles mixed with coarse sand were encountered at depths ranging from 10.5 feet to 14 feet bgs (ENERCON 2016). VOLUNTARY REMEDIATION PROGRAM PRELIMINARY WORK PLAN
Soil. During operations under this Contract, the Contractor shall take such precautions as necessary to minimize, insofar as possible, soil erosion and damage to the soil and wetlands. Equipment shall not be operated when ground conditions are such that excessive damage will result. Water bars and lead-off drainage satisfactory to Forester shall be installed on all skid roads and temporary roads that have potential to create erosion. Erosion prone and exposed soil shall be mulched or seeded by the contractor. Contractor shall be responsible for all such mitigation expenses deemed necessary by Forester. Forested wetlands should not be entered, especially during periods of significantly wet soil conditions that will result in soil compaction. Ideally, trees will be directionally felled and line skidded. If entry is required during drier periods, it must be pre- authorized and should be limited to absolute minimum levels. Skid trail entries shall be mitigated by contractor. Un-permitted equipment entries will be fined at a rate of $100 per foot of skid trail and contractor shall bear all mitigation responsibilities.
Soil. Soil samples were tested for various physical and chemical parameters to assess impacts on soil health, nitrate leaching and carbon sequestration. Analysis of the shallow (0-6”) and mid (6-12”) depth samples for a composite suite of soil parameters (see Table 6) was conducted by the Soil Control Lab in Watsonville, CA. The low and deep (12-24” and 24-36”) samples were solely analyzed for nitrate as nitrogen (nitrate-N) at Canada College in Redwood City, CA (▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇- Chemistry laboratory), to generate nitrate-N profiles. Note that in fall 2013 these low and deep samples were analyzed for nitrate- N by the Soil Control Lab instead of Canada College. The 3”soil cores taken each fall were used to determine bulk density. This analysis was performed by ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (Area Resource Soil Scientist, Templeton, CA, NRCS) following the methods in the Soil Quality Test Kit, Chapter 4, pp 9-10 and 13 (USDA, 1999b). Soil data from each subplot, at each sampling depth, were averaged across treatment replicates (subplots) within the North and the South plots for each year. Standard errors for these averages were calculated for each treatment following the recommend method in “A Guide to Conducting Biochar Trials” by the International Biochar Initiative (Major, 2009). Then the data was analyzed with respect to differences between treatments and the control, between North and South plots, and over time. The following sections describe the methods for assessing soil health based on bulk density, soil organic matter, nutrients, electrical conductivity, pH and cation exchange capacity. Additionally, nitrate-N soil profiles and soil organic carbon data were used to assess potential changes to nitrate leaching and carbon sequestration, respectively.
