Contaminated and clean fill soils are required to be classified as per EPA Vic Soil Hazard Categorisation and Management guidelines and a laboratory report for the full EPA IWRG621 suite of analysis as well as PFAS analysis provided to the Quality Assurance team for assessment of the soil for acceptance and suitability for the compost process.
