Description
Summary:As regards the research methodology, this paper used the comparative method between the current legislation in force in the Member States of the European Union on regulated standards for heavy metal content in soil. As can be seen, the legislative regulations vary from country to country, and in Romania, the legislation is the most stringent in terms of Pb content in soil, compared to the European Union and other Member States. Finland imposes higher restrictions for Cd, Ni and Zn content, while the Netherlands has stricter regulations for As content. Dutch legislation is more permissive for essential metals than other EU Member States.
