 Contaminated sites
Overview:Contaminated sites - a giant problem! In the Federal republic of Germany approximately 370.000 potentially contaminated sites are officially registered. Indications of potential pollutions of the underground by pollutants frequently represents the decisive investment and action obstacle for property owners, communities and investors. With professional, approved and innovative investigation methods we make this risk of contaminated sites calculable for you.
Your benefit:
- We offer the full service. You can get an environment risk analysis of contaminated sites, soil, emissions and noise pollutions and this at fixed prices.
- To be protected against unpleasant "surprises" before development, we offer geotechnical and environmental technical investigations. This way, cost intensive supplements of the executing enterprises or interruptions of the construction process caused by contaminations can be avoided.
Research of historical data - learning from the past!- Research of historical files and documents
- Evaluation of maps and aerial photos
- Interviews and site inspections
Your benefit:Get to know the historical use of your property. Detailed statements about the situation and extension of potentially contaminated areas can be made.
- When and where substances endangering the environment were handled in the past?
- Where do non-approved waste disposal sites, waste deposits or potentially polluting plants exist?
- Which businesses or production facilities have been on the site?
- Which pollutants can be expected?
- Did operational accidents happen? Are contaminations obvious?
- Which buildings or plants still exist and which buildings and plants did exist in the past?
Technical investigation - We are going to find it out! If there are indications for soil contaminations after the historical research, a detailed technical investigation needs only to be done in certain areas. Thus you can save your money.
Drilling and sampling
Your benefit:Small scale drillings, core drillings or outcrops by excavator: The choice of suitable investigation techniques for sampling depends on the specific location and purpose. We avoid rigid and cost-intensive sampling-grids. Your benefit:By the use of innovative on-site-analysis techniques you get your results and the further investigation program can be adapted flexibly. We can save your time and money. Laboratory analyses
Your benefit: Chemical analyses in accredited laboratories serve for an additional safeguarding. We reduce the amount of such laboratory analyses to the minimum.
Expertises - With us you'll reach your goal faster!Risk assessment Your benefit:In our environmental technical report you find a detailed representation of results and a purpose oriented evaluation in easily understandable language. Are contaminants in the underground? Are there environmental or health risks? You will receive valuable geotechnical information about the soil concerning construction as well. We do all the coordination for the further procedure with the proper authorities for you. ValuationYour benefit:In the run-up to a purchase of property eventual contaminations problems can be foreseen. Can a reduction in value be excluded? We prefer to tell you potentially problems immediately. With the help of our calculation type and height of costs of further remediation measures can be predicted. Remediation conception
Your benefit:If relevant pollutions could be confirmed during the technical investigation, we will give you practicable action recommendations. - Are urgent measures necessary for avoiding dangers ?
- Which remediation measures are suitable and can be cost-effective realized on the site?
- Which remediation objectives with regard to the further land use should be obtained?
- We judge which remediation measures are most suitable in this context and how they can be realized cost-optimised on the site.
- We also plan and coordinate the necessary measures of work and health protection and security and take care for their observance.
Our EU-project "NORISC"Your benefit:The EU-project "NORISC" (Network Oriented-Risk-Assessment by In-Situ-Screening of Contaminated sites) actually develops a common European method to evaluate contaminated sites faster and more cost-effective. It is funded by the European Commission under the 5th Framework Programme. You can already profit from our innovative know-how now!
