Soil quality map

The preparation of a soil quality map is a mandatory part of the area-specific soil policy. The Map provides insight into the current quality of the soil (the excavation map) and the requirements for applying a batch of soil (the application map). The excavation and application map are part of the Nota Bodembeheer Gemeente Kerkrade.

If you are going to apply soil, this usually requires a notification. This notification must be made through the website of the Soil Quality Reporting Point . On this site you can download the "Brochure Notification Requirements for Soil, Dredging and Building Materials" and click through to "Frequently Asked Questions about the Reporting Point".

The "PFAS Soil Quality Map" includes an application map related to PFAS.
