In cooperation with Vodní zdroje a.s., we carried out a supplementary investigation of five sectors within the former integrated steelworks site. Although the buildings had already been demolished, extensive underground structures and large volumes of surface fill remained. According to a risk analysis conducted by Vodní zdroje, the primary contaminants of concern were free-phase tar residues from former coal gas production and elevated levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the widespread fill material. Remediation was subsequently undertaken under ENACON’s supervision, including the removal of additional contaminants uncovered during earthworks for the construction of new industrial facilities.
