Land Contamination: A Major Ecological Issue That Needs Your Attention!

Health is the most precious thing in a human being who longs to keep it for a long time. This capital faces various constraints due to the degradation of the quality of our environment in general and urban in particular.

In order to improve the health of our environment, Anderson Environmental offers its professional customers support in bringing their environmental management into compliance by conducting effluent disposal and site contamination assessments in accordance with regulations and international standards.

Since the industrial revolution, our lands have been subject to different types of contamination (hydrocarbons, mercury, heavy metals, solvents, etc.) caused mainly by human activities.

Often invisible to the naked eye, these chemical compounds have harmful effects on our health, that of our children, and of the living beings that feed on these contaminated soils.

Moreover, these pollutants could be transmitted via little feared vectors. Indeed, the modes of transmission can not only be via the ingestion of contaminated food but also, by the respiratory route, through soil dust and gases sometimes released.

As a result, the environmental authorities have made some guidelines regarding this matter which every company needs to follow.

In order to cushion the impact of land contamination, the implementation of adequate measures is the responsibility of business/company owners or the person who is in charge of any project/activity that will have an impact on the environment.

If you have a company that deals with hazardous substances then it is highly important for you to put great attention to its work.

For example, you should check whether the effluents released from your company are getting disposed of at the right place or not.

In addition, you also need to keep your eye on the condition of soil present on your sites, if the soil comes out to be contaminated then you have to take further action for its decontamination so that it does not pollute the surrounding areas.

Depending on the nature of your business, you may also have to have SEPP 55 Contamination Assessment which can only be conducted with the help of professionals like the team of Anderson Environmental.

By using sampling techniques and following rigorous protocols, the experts will analyze the samples taken in specialized laboratories. After having the samples examined, assessment reports are made in which the condition of the site is stated and appropriate remedial actions are suggested.
