Screening for Overfladevand is a tool for the regions and authorities working with monitoring and protection of Denmark's surface water, and ensures that potential threats from soil contamination are identified and managed effectively.
Screening for Overfladevand is a tool used to assess the risk of soil contamination in relation to nearby surface water. The system helps the regions identify potential threats from mapped polluted sites that may affect the aquatic environment, including streams, lakes and other water bodies.
The tool is built to ensure a uniform approach to screening contaminated sites that can potentially affect water quality, and it allows to prioritize efforts against contaminants that pose the greatest risk.
Screening for Overfladevand is a solution for soil contamination monitoring. It is used by the regions to carry out an automatic screening that analyses whether there is a risk of a contaminated site adversely affecting surface water. Screening for Overfladevand makes it possible to assess mapped sites (V1 and V2) based on specific parameters such as pollutants, the distance to water bodies and risk factors such as exceeding permissible limit values.
The screening is based on biographical data and geodata from Danmarks Arealinformation and take into account targeted water bodies defined in national and EU rules for the protection of the aquatic environment.
For regions and authorities
The tool makes it possible to assess the risk from mapped contaminated sites in relation to their impact on nearby water bodies. This helps regions to make decisions about where to prioritise efforts and ensure that sources of pollution do not harm the aquatic environment.
