ECOLOGIC REHABILITATION OF MINING SITES IN THE SUCEAVA COUNTY

Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2008, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

Pollution and the risk of human communities or natural ecosystems from the mining sites do not disappear at the same time with the cessation of exploitation and useful mineral substances preparation activities. The respective sites continue to remain sources of risk and pollution. Toleration of this risks has sometimes led to accidents or even catastrophes, not only from an ecological point of view, but also to a directly affectation of human communities. If it is easier for the present or future industrial activities to stipulate, from a legislative point of view, clear measures and responsibilities for terrain rehabilitation at the same time or at the end of the activities, for former polluted and degraded sites (the so-called “historical pollution”), difficulties in establishing some legislative measures are obvious. Even more obvious is the difficulty of necessary fund raising for financial aid for the ecological rehabilitation of the degraded sites. For elaborating an adequate politics in this domain it is necessary first of all to know the existence and importance of the problem that this sites constitute, and then, as a first step, to completely know them in a fully transparent environment. This knowledge must relay on listing and systematic research of potentially degraded sites by establishing priorities regarding rehabilitation necessities. Treating every site must be made by taking in consideration its impact on the environment, its risk level and its expected use
