Posted By Bob Youel If a substance/preparation or a natural compound etc is not waste e.g. its to be used again; then its not waste so the waste parameters do not apply A none waste substance and / or a waste substance etc can still be 'hazardous'

Posted By CFT Patrick Is this for localised re-use and if so what final purpose? If not is this for disposal purposes? What is the quantity? What is the quality? (test results) Have you detailed information by way of soil contamination analysis? In a nut shell it is not as simple as you may first think; it would be helpful to know what the cubic tonnage is. In England, Scotland and Wales, the stripping and removal of topsoil is subject to various controls. You may require planning permission and other related permissions (quantity is key); your 3 months may be making reference to removal of more than five cubic yards of surface soil from agricultural land in any three-month period. Could you supply any more background and on any desk studies you may have for a more accurate response? CFT
