(b) The concentration limit for a hazardous constituent in soil outside the regulated unit shall not exceed the background concentration of that constituent in the soil unless an alternate concentration limit that is higher than background concentration for soil is established by the Department under subsection (e) of this section.

(c) The concentration limit for a hazardous constituent in open-air immediately downwind from the regulated unit:

(1) shall not exceed an ambient air quality standard established by the California Air Resources Board; and

(2) shall not exceed a concentration limit for a hazardous constituent established by the Department to protect human health or the environment.

(d) The concentration limit for a hazardous constituent in soil-pore gas outside the regulated unit shall not exceed the background concentration in soil-pore gas unless a concentration limit greater than background is established for soil-pore gas by the Department under subsection (e) of this section.
