Section 18801.1 - Use of Soil for Alternative Daily Cover, Alternative Intermediate Cover, or Beneficial Reuse

(a) Alternative daily cover does not include the use of clean or contaminated soil segregated prior to receipt by a landfill; however, loads of materials used for alternative daily cover may include small amounts of soil (such as found in construction and demolition waste loads). For the purpose of this Article, amounts of alternative daily cover shall be reported separately from amounts of alternative intermediate cover and from amounts of other beneficial on-site reuse.

(b) Alternative intermediate cover does not include the use of clean or contaminated soil segregated prior to receipt by a landfill; however, loads of materials used for alternative intermediate cover may include small amounts of soil (such as found in construction and demolition waste loads). For the purpose of this Article, amounts of alternative intermediate cover shall be reported separately from amounts of alternative daily cover and from amounts of other beneficial on-site reuse.

(c) Beneficial reuse does not include the use of clean or contaminated soil segregated prior to receipt by a landfill; however, loads of materials reused beneficially may include small amounts of soil (such as found in construction and demolition waste loads). For the purpose of this Article, amounts of other beneficial reuse shall be reported separately from amounts of alternative daily cover and from amounts of alternative intermediate cover.

(d) For the purposes of this Division, clean soil and contaminated soil used as cover or for other beneficial reuse do not count as disposal or diversion.
