Objectif The main objective of the project is to involve EU Candidate Countries (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia) in an EU research action on the environmental impact of mining waste in collaboration with DG Environment and EEA.Specific objectives are:- to compare criteria for assessment and remediation of contaminated areas in Candidate Countries with regulations adopted by EU Member States and with the existing EU legislative framework in the area of waste;- to compile an inventory of toxic waste sites from mineral mining in relation to sensitive catchment areas, by combining an indicator approach according to the DPSIR framework and an analysis of information provided by satellite remote sensing;- to contribute to the assessment of the toxic streams originating from mining waste in a perspective of ecosystem protection, by comparing approaches to site monitoring and restoration.
