Sec. 9-74. General.
The City Council finds and determines that those properties formerly included within the Fort Ord military installation which are suspected of containing UXO require special standards and procedures for digging and excavation in addition to those contained in the building code, to ensure that:
a.Neither digging or excavation nor development of such properties occurs until ordnance or explosive remediation thereon is completed;
b.Potential purchasers or developers of UXO sites and those persons whose work at UXO sites includes disturbing soil, are aware of the potential that UXO may be located on these properties and are aware of the requirements for UXO remediation prior to any digging, excavation or ground disturbance thereon; and
c.DTSC should be continuously involved in the establishment of controls for those properties because it has statutory oversight responsibility with respect to hazardous substance response actions.
