Summary
In recent years, Dutch soil policy has been influenced by the general trend in environmental policy which has been moving away from a sectoral approach and towards an integrated approach. This paper gives an account of the present situation from four angles: prevention, active management of contaminated soil, soil remediation and the use of standards in these areas.
Kurzfassung
Die niederländische Bodensanierungspolitik der vergangenen Jahre wurde von einem allgemeinen Trend in der Umweltschutzpolitik beeinflußt, sich nicht mehr auf einzelne Probleme zu richten, sondern eine integrierte Herangehensweise zu suchen. Der vorliegende Beitrag vermittelt einen Eindruck der gegenwärtigen Situation aus vier Blickwinkeln: Prävention, aktives Altlasten-Management, Altlastensanierung und Anwendung normierter Richtlinien bei diesen Altstandorten.
Résumé

Cet article expose la situation actuelle à partir de quatre angles: prévention, gestion active du sol pollué, assainissement du sol et utilisation de standards dans ces domaines.
