Furthermore, any personal food items brought onsite must be brought in reusable containers and/or recyclable containers to minimize onsite waste generation; • Local trucking companies will be utilized to minimize mobilization travel and decrease fuel consumption and carbon emissions; o Trucks entering the site and awaiting loads will be asked to shut vehicles off and not idle while truck loading is ongoing. • Should soil over -excavation be determined necessary, soils that are determined to be clean will be segregated and stockpiled for reuse as backfill; • Soils removed offsite for disposal will be trucked to local landfill sites within the nearest proximity to the site. For purposes of this project, Heartland anticipates trucking soils to Prairie View Landfill in Wyatt, Indiana, located approximately 20-miles from the site; • Local sources (within 15 miles from the site) will be utilized to import clean backfill material, if determined necessary; • When appropriate, Heartland will utilize its staff hybrid gasoline/electric vehicles (Toyota Prius or similar vehicle) to conduct field activities at times when large transport of field equipment is not necessary. Please note Heartland will man this project from its South Bend, Indiana office, located approximately 5 miles from the project site. In addition to these green strategies, Heartland will require its subcontractors, including drilling and laboratory subcontractors, to follow green principles. Heartland's drilling subcontractor will be implementing the following activities: • Idling of vehicles will not be permitted; • Zero waste generation goals will be in place, with care taken to recycle any generated waste during site activities; • Water usage will be kept to a minimum, with care taken to replace decontamination water when appropriate and to minimize spillage while decontamination of equipment is occurring. All used decontamination water will be containerized for disposal in reusable 55-gallon steel drums. Heartland will be working with Pace as its laboratory subcontractor for this project. Pace has implemented the following green initiatives as part of its overall corporate strategy: • Pace is a paperless laboratory, providing digital copies of final laboratory reports and using online tools to provide customers with access to laboratory documents. By being paperless, Pace uses less paper, printer toner and energy due to the lack of printers and copiers being run; • Pace has implemented technological advances to allow for minimizing sample volume necessary to run specific analytic methods. Reduction of sample volume allows for less
