AREA DECONTAMINATION

Area Decontamination of suspicious site

An important reason for the prevention of further sealing of landscape is to reclaim potentially suspicious grounds of contaminated grounds. Since many of these unused brownfield sites are in the middle of the city and urgently necessary evidence surfaces, cost-oriented solutions for reconsideration use of this brownfields are required.

Contaminated sites lead to a depreciation of your area. Rehabilitated areas can be redeveloped with high profits

Urban objectives for land use

The typical remediation in the form of security in old locations as the object of the 80s and 90s is being replaced by the demand for land recycling and land development of existing inner city brownfields.

Since the UN conference in Rio in 1992 "Spatial and Urban Planning and Economy" require a soil conservation program to reduce the consumption of land from the current 120 ha per day (equivalent to the consumption of a surface of 120 sports fields per day just for the Federal Republic of Germany) - a consumption of only 30 ha per day.

The being passed on to the public costs of development of "green field" of about 75 billion € per year are rightly regarded as unacceptable.

Linking economic and environmental criteria may be another reason - to be "economic must have" - when investors / Cities / Towns

the transport routes of the goods / raw materials
the advent of increased public transport
the cost of creating the streets
the laying of the media (telephone, gas, water and waste water)

would take the cost of the new space in the surrounding area and the location disadvantages into consideration. The competitive factors of urban land would clearly speak for the industrial wasteland.

Contaminated sites lead to a depreciation of your area. A property purchase without a geological investigation on any existing contamination leads with high probability a capital loss by remediation costs or limited use possibility.

In existing soil contamination, you are required by Federal Soil Protection Act and the Water Management Act, to rehabilitate them.
