There have been a bunch of good replies already but here is what I would do.
Remove all the dead organic material you can by hand. Hose it off with hose or better yet pressure washer to remove what you cant get by hand. Put it in a brute trash can filled with saltwater, heater and a pump, lid on. Get it curing right away, sooner and longer the better. You know its cured when it stopps leaching no3 and po4. Then if you dont have the tank setup by then start cycling the rock. Like I said the longer you can have the rock running in saltwater the better.
