Soil
The Working Group Soil of the GDCh Division of Environmental Chemistry & Ecotoxicology sees its task in supporting the ongoing amendment of the German Soil Protection Ordinance (BBodSchV), by transporting relevant scientific findings and practical experience to legislative bodies.
Conversely, it also offers assistance and initiates scientific research with questions from higher-level committees.
The working group will begin its work with the topic of the future assessment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soil, in particular with the current amendment proposal, which is currently the subject of much controversy. This should also take into account substances beyond the 16 EPA PAHs and PAH transformation products that have received less attention to date.
