In our jurisdiction, encapsulation of contaminated soils (with a "cap" that contains and prevents leaching) is considered acceptable for remediating a site. Is there precedence in LEED 2009 or 2.2 for this?

Keith, I can't speak to whether this practice has worked for other projects, but LEED seems clear that the remediation standards are up to the relevant jurisdiction.
