Kriterien des Bodenschutzes bei der Ver- und Entsiegelung von Boeden Untersuchungsprogramm Bodenver-/-entsiegelung

Attempts are made to approach the problem of soil destruction due to sealing (German: Versiegelung, putting a hard cover on top of the soil) in the course of settlement's growth with the requirement for an economic and careful handling of soil. Soil protection requires the unsealing of soil when the sealing is no longer needed or when soil is sealed to an unreasonable extend. This requirement is confronted with the requirements for an effective protection of groundwater against pollutant inputs and for the surface cover corresponding to the use claims. Therefore, requirements of soil sealing and unsealing measures and groundwater protection as well as use specific requirements have to be weighed up in environmental planning. For this purpose an investigation program on soil sealing/unsealing is being developed which shows how to proceed in evaluating impacts on soil functions from sealing und unsealing of soils.
