Designated Investigation Agency | Early Soil Condition Survey to Prevent Chemical Substance Leakage in Equipment
To prevent chemical leaks due to aging infrastructure, voluntary early soil condition surveys are important. Early assessment of underground contamination through legacy risk inventory.
In manufacturing lines and chemical handling departments that have been in operation for a long time, there are often cases where the underground piping and storage tanks are deteriorating over time, posing serious risks of underground infiltration. Leaving these issues unaddressed at an invisible stage can become the primary factor leading to enormous future environmental remediation costs and potentially fatal "negative legacies," such as operational shutdowns. This catalog proposes a voluntary early soil condition survey by Geotech, a designated investigation agency, to ensure the safety of facilities and prevent chemical leaks. First, we will conduct a legacy risk inventory by creating a database of past equipment layouts and repair histories to accurately identify areas of concentrated risk. Based on this, we will implement our unique high-precision sampling that does not interfere with on-site operations, allowing for early detection of the presence of harmful substances underground and signs of their spread. This will contribute to compliance with sudden regulatory changes, elimination of defect risks, and the establishment of a clean operating environment that protects the company's social credibility over the long term.
basic information
This survey plan provides advanced overview analysis techniques by a designated investigation agency in accordance with the Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act. Specifically, it can handle everything from historical site examination (Phase 1) to high-precision sampling of surface soil gas and groundwater in Phase 2 investigations. To accommodate on-site practicalities, we utilize ultra-compact, vibration-free, low-noise drilling machines that can be easily transported and operated in confined spaces both indoors and outdoors, as well as in areas with dense piping. This allows for the reliable collection of target samples from significant depths without affecting the operation of surrounding manufacturing lines. It supports testing for the leaching and content of a total of 26 specific hazardous substances.

Applications/Examples of results
For practical applications, it is ideal for regular environmental governance audits in chemical product manufacturing, metal surface treatment, and precision machinery assembly factories, as well as for voluntary underground infiltration risk assessments. It is used to prioritize areas when planning repairs for aging infrastructure and to quickly determine the extent of contamination in the event of a leak. Additionally, it is widely utilized in business scenarios aimed at eliminating defect risks before the sale or change of use of company-owned land, and clarifying environmental liabilities during family succession or M&A, serving as a legacy risk inventory. It contributes to infrastructure inspections that prevent sudden massive losses and ensure social trust.
