  • The basis for the prepartion of the first inventory of potentially contaminated sites (PCSs) in Slovenia
    Lampič, Barbara ; Rebernik, Lea, 1993- ; Bobovnik, Nejc
    Slovenia does not have a register of potentially contaminated sites (PCSs) or a system of their comprehensive management. Therefore, based on the existing national spatial database of functionally ... degraded areas (FDAs), which includes abandoned areas of past human activities, we identified those areas, that depending on the previous activity and the current state, can be included in the PCSs database. We identified 411 areas as PCSs, which represents more than a third of all FDAs in Slovenia. Looking at the type of activity, PCSs of mineral extraction, industrial activities and infrastructure (landfills/waste disposal sites included) prevail. This is the first proposal of a database and of spatially displaying PCSs in Slovenia. We estimate that this is an appropriate basis for further supplementation, research, and in the future also for the preparation of appropriate measures. We plan to submit the first data to the European Environmental Agency at the beginning of 2021, which will enable the inclusion of the Slovenian data in the indicator for monitoring contaminated sites on the level of European Union.
