We provide a one-stop service for soil contamination investigations based on the Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act, from soil analysis and historical surveys to soil purification.
Soil contamination includes cases where specific harmful substances used at business sites such as factories have permeated the ground and contaminated the soil, as well as situations where contamination is of natural origin. The Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act aims to understand the situation of soil contamination caused by such specific harmful substances and to prevent health damage to humans due to soil contamination. A total of 27 substances are designated as specific harmful substances, and the standards regarding contamination are defined as "standards based on the amount leached into the testing solution of specific harmful substances concerning soil contamination from the perspective of groundwater (soil leaching standards)" and "standards based on the content of specific harmful substances concerning soil contamination from the perspective of direct ingestion (soil content standards)." Under the Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act, there is an obligation to conduct a soil contamination status investigation and report the results in the following three cases. Furthermore, soil investigations are to be conducted by designated investigation agencies specified by the Ministry of the Environment.
