I'm mainly looking into urban soils. Where I live, I have found that many large-scale infrastructural projects are aware of the use of industrial debris and wastes in their foundations in a layer of sediment that is called 'artificial fill.' The EPAs definition of this debris is quite limited for the state of CA, where other state's definitions are quite detailed. I've found reports of asbestos and lead based paints being used in this fill layer, along with some experience in construction and knowing what is often left behind or neglected.
Now there are many organizations working in the clean up efforts, I had just thought of transgenic introduction after reading an article on CYP2E1 transgenic Poplars and their ability to degrade and sequester incredible amounts of such pollutants in brownfield or at superfund sites.

Life finds a way my friend. Just watch Jurassic Park and you'll understand that heavy monitoring alone will not keep your mutants strictly on your field.
Why do you believe it is necessary to clean up soil in the first place? Is there a need for it, or do you think it is better in some way?
