OBLIGATION FOR REMEDIATION(Law Decree n. 152/2006)
• Remediation procedure must be carried out by the responsible of contamination whenever threshold contaminant concentration limits (CSC) are exceeded (table values )
• Table values (soil) refer the land use, according to the Municipal Master Plan
• If local background concentration is higher than the threshold limits, background levels can be adopted as maximum concentration limits
• Site Specific Risk analysis (human health) must be performed when contaminant concentrations measured on site exceed table values (RBCA-ASTM procedure)
• Remedial action must be carried out if contaminant concentration exceed site specific target levels (CSR) calculated by risk analysis, otherwise a monitoring program is required

Sites of “National Interest”
• Areas of particular environmental sensitivity and/or very densely populated and/or having particular historic value, and/or extending over more than one region etc.
• Communication and design procedures are similar to “standard” procedures, but the competent authority is the Ministry of the Environment

OFFICIAL ORDERS
• Whenever a public authority becomes aware of a situation of contamination, it must inform the Province
• The Province then formally orders the responsible of the contamination to carry out the remediation procedure, and notifies the owner of the property
• If the responsible party or the land owner does not act or cannot be found, competent authority (Municipality or the Province ) has to carry out the remedial action “ex officio”
• The innocent owner is called to refund the cost of the remediation activity carried out “ex officio” by the public administration, according to the market value of the site after remediation

control and final certification• Control and validation of field activities and their
compliance to the approved remediation design is entrusted to the Province with the technical support of the Regional Environmental Protection Agency (ARPA)
• The Province approves the completed remediation by issuing a act of final certification
• The act of Final Certification enables withdrawal of the financial security
