A case of environmental contamination is 'serious' if >25 m3 soil or >100 m3 groundwater is contaminated above the intervention value.

The reference values for soil are adjusted for the organic matter (humus) content and soil fraction < 0.2 μm (lutum). Above values are calculated for a 'Standard Soil' with 10% organic matter and 25% lutum.

Science kits, science lessons, science toys, maths toys, hobby kits, science games and books - these are some of many products that can help give your kid an edge in their science fair projects, and develop a tremendous interest in the study of science. When shopping for a science kit or other supplies, make sure that you carefully review the features and quality of the products. Compare prices by going to several online stores. Read product reviews online or refer to magazines.

Start by looking for your science kit review or science toy review. Compare prices but remember, Price $ is not everything. Quality does matter.
