• Soil is usually tested from 4 5 different sections on the property at a depth of 25mm and 50mm. • A rough diagram will be provided along with the written result which will indicate the result from each specific section on the property that was tested. A level of 300ppm of lead in soil has been set by the National Health and Research Council (NHMRC) and the Australian & New Zealand Environment Conservation Council (ANZECC) as the level for further investigation. Lake Macquarie City Council (LMCC) follows these recommendations. Also, see EPA FACT Sheet ( http://www.epa.gov/lead/pubs/403fs01.
