Refer to the US EPA website, Growing Gardens in Urban Soils, for further information and resources, and consider adding a professional consultant to the project team if warranted. Each project team is responsible for determining appropriate urban agriculture solutions for a particular site, and should take into account exposure pathways for contamination (if present). The potential impact, as well as the necessary mitigation, varies depending on the rate and transfer method. Pollution can be transferred to the site in multiple ways, including via rain runoff, precipitation of substances onto the site, through the movement of groundwater and soil water and through wind. The US Environmental Protection Agency has published reports that indicate a causal relationship between a proximity to heavily trafficked roadways and a source of pollution for adjacent sites. "The Living Building Challenge does not specify allowable contaminant levels for soils used for agricultural production however, we appreciate your concern about the possibility of pollutants in crops due to proximity to a high traffic roadway.
