Soil remediation encompasses a range of measures designed to neutralize pollutants in the soil or groundwater, thereby preventing risks to human health and the environment.

Following a soil study in the Walloon Region, the discovery of hazardous traces of pollution may lead to the obligation to undertake a remediation project. As an accredited soil management firm with the Brussels, Walloon, and Flemish authorities, ABV Development is the ideal partner to design, implement, and monitor your site's remediation project.

Regulatory framework for soil remediation in Belgium

In the Walloon Region, the " Soil Decree " of March 1, 2018, regarding soil management and remediation, specifies all the measures to be followed.

The requirements for soil management are defined by regional regulations: each region (Wallonia, Brussels, Flanders) has its own framework.

The technical resources implemented must adhere to a principle of proportionality : the project takes into account the level of pollution, its impact on the environment and human health, as well as the consequences of the remediation actions and works themselves.

The project must justify the chosen solution and establish the expected results in order to obtain approval from the regional administration.
