§ 150.19  EXCAVATION AND FILLING.
   (A)   If excavation is necessary, it is to be filled in and the material to be used for such fills should consist of clay, and/or bank run gravel (or equivalent). The excavation cavity shall not be filled with appliances, such as stoves, refrigerators, freezers, and/or similar items, wood materials, and/or brick, concrete block, from either the demolished structure, from the demolition site, or from offsite. Provision shall also be made for proper and adequate drainage. Any backfill shall be properly compacted.
   (B)   Basement walls, footings, or other subgrade structures, including basement floors, if present on the demolition site, shall be removed to a depth of three feet below finish grade. Concrete slabs below three feet in depth shall be broken to allow penetration of water.
   (C)   The demolition site shall be properly graded and seeded, or properly graded and stoned or paved (if it is to be a parking area). If a new structure is to be built on the demolition site within 180 days of the date of the completion of demolition, the site may be allowed to be unseeded. However, if construction does not commence after said period of time, the site shall be seeded.
