[Soil Notification] Changes in Items Due to Legal Revisions

Due to the amendment of the law, some harmful substance items in the soil environmental standards and the Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act have changed.

The announcement regarding the partial revision of the environmental standards related to soil contamination, published on September 28, 2018, has been in effect since April 1, 2019. Among the soil environmental standards and soil contamination countermeasure law items, "cis-1,2-dichloroethylene" has been renamed to "1,2-dichloroethylene." Previously, only the concentration of the "cis" form was reported, but going forward, the sum of the concentrations of the "cis" and "trans" forms will be treated as the result for "1,2-dichloroethylene." Cis-1,2-dichloroethylene → 1,2-dichloroethylene (sum of cis-1,2-dichloroethylene and trans-1,2-dichloroethylene) The standard value remains unchanged at "0.04 mg/L." In response to the legal revision, our company has also revised analysis procedures and reporting items. If you have any questions, please feel free to consult us at any time.
