CCDD Testing

(Clean Construction or Demolition Debris)

As defined bythe Illinois EPA:

Clean construction or demolition debris (CCDD) is uncontaminated broken concrete without protruding metal bars, bricks, rock, stone, or reclaimed asphalt pavement generated from construction or demolition activities.

The State of Illinois has implemented a new regulation that controls uncontaminated soil from construction or demolition projects. Before a “clean fill site” (landfill)can accept this waste,they must first obtain certification from a licensed Professional Engineer that the soil is uncontaminated.

ECG can perform this testing and certification. We usually can respond to your request for testing within 24 – 48 hours. ECG performs the following services in regard to CCDD soil testing:

• Site visit and sample collection
• Determination of required analysis based on site history
• Submittal of sample to laboratory
• Evaluate laboratory results
• Complete necessary forms with P.E. certification

After ECG’s work is complete, the contractor then takes the certification to the clean fill site (landfill) to obtain approval for disposal. Once the contractor has obtained this approval, they can transport their material to the clean fill site.
