Soil Rating and Criteria for Large Animal Carcass Disposal
The National Soil Survey Center (NSSC) has developed and is testing a suite
of Homeland Security soil survey interpretations. The suite includes soil
interpretations for disposal of animal carcasses, disposal of rubble and debris,
composting facilities, soil suitability for pit and trench liners, and soil
suitability for composting media and cover. States are completing soil data
population this year and the interpretations will be uploaded onto the Soil Data
Mart by the end of 2006. These interpretations are important tools for pre- and
post-event planning.
When updated the information can be found in
Section II of the Field Office
Technical Guide (EFOTG) and the rating can be downloaded from the Soil Data
Mart:
