Initial inspection and examination of 26 heavily contaminated sites using a
standardised and internationally acknowledged methodology.
Prioritization of measures according to severity and potential danger;
description of contamination (causes; type of hazard; effects on
groundwater and surface water, soil, air and land use; distribution of
emissions; effects of erosion and precipitation etc.).
Based on socio-economic and local political considerations the ten most
important contaminated sites were listed according to priority. The sites
were finally selected with the help of a decision support model taking into
account technical, economic and social criteria.
