European and national legislation with regards to the different steps in a phytoremediation approach for metal-contaminated land
When applying phytotechnologies for management of metal-contaminated land, many questions are raised with regard to legislative issues. Within the REJUVENATE and GREENLAND projects we try to answer them using a flow approach in which each step when considering and applying phytotechnologies is exami...

When applying phytotechnologies for management of metal-contaminated land, many questions are raised with regard to legislative issues. Within the REJUVENATE and GREENLAND projects we try to answer them using a flow approach in which each step when considering and applying phytotechnologies is examined: (1) describing the land status and use, (2) planting/sowing, (3) growing, (4) harvesting and (5) processing the crops, and (6) using the remainders. The focus is on European legislation as a basis for national rules (Directives) or as directly enforceable (Regulations), followed by legislation of the Member States and then, if relevant, regional legislation. Strategic communications of the Commission and proposals for new legislation are considered only when it is probable that these will become formal obligations in the near future. National legislation has been assessed in detail for all countries represented within the GREENLAND project. In the first step, the status and use of the land, and the implications with regards to soil threshold values and the use of crops are defined.
