Table 1 and Table 2.1 soil disposal
Cleaner soil is welcome at both locations. From January 1, 2027 it can no longer go to landfill, so line up a receiving site before you dig.
What these tables mean
- Table 1 is the background standard. It is the cleanest of the generic tables.
- Table 2.1 is the full depth standard for sites with potable ground water.
Your qualified person compares your lab results to the tables and tells you which one the soil meets. How the tables work.
The 2027 rule
From January 1, 2027, soil that meets Table 2.1 residential, parkland and institutional standards, or cleaner, may not be deposited at an Ontario landfill or dump, with limited exceptions.
If your 2027 jobs were priced with landfill as the destination, that soil needs a new one. The rule in plain terms.
