additional soil or certifying the area as cleaned.

RANKING.

The Pu suspect areas together encompass an area of approximately

150 acres.

This total is probably on the high side, however, as suspect

The last column in

which would be excised if the entire 150 acres must be cleaned up.

The

volumes were calculated by assuming that areas with significant con-

and areas which are contaminated to greater depths will be cleaned up to
