Rules for disposal of cleanfill from pool

Hi,
Does anyone know the rules for disposing of the cleanfill from excavating for a pool?
I have someone who wants to take it but the pool company says you need special permits to dispose of cleanfill on a property. So they don't want to do it.

Interesting... We required $8000 worth of fill to our site according to Metricon. We wanted to use the cleanfill from our pool excavation as part of this - pool guy was absolutely ok with this but Metricon argued that the quality of the fill might be compromised and refused to accept it.

Most councils will require a DA to bring fill into a property. Normally most councils will only allow 1mt fill to a block before DA required. You would be better off contacting local council.

It is not so much the soil coming out of a property but the soil coming into one. If a house was going to be built over this soil it has to meet certain requirements - mostly for compacting and stability. You wouldn't for instance dig up clay from a pool then spread it over where you are going to build your house. Most soil brought in is sand or similar. compacts easily and is a stable platform to build on.
Whoever does the siteworks has to certify the quality of the fill and that it has been compacted properly usually every 100-150mm in depth.
