Small dozer forming soil stockpile
A soil stockpile is formed with excavated topsoil during the construction of buildings or infrastructure. It is considered to be an important resource in construction and ecology.[1][2] Soil is stockpiled for later use in landscaping or restoration of the region following the removal of construction infrastructure.[3] Prior to re-use, stockpiled soil may be tested for contamination.[4][5]
