Designated Investigation Agency | Soil Survey to Prevent Transaction Risks of Factory Sites | Geotech
Soil contamination survey
Soil measures to eliminate the risk of defects in the sale through a voluntary pre-sale historical investigation, in order to avoid contractual liability for specific hazardous substances associated with the sale of the factory.
In the sale of manufacturing factories and processing sites, soil contamination from chemicals previously used poses a dangerous factor that can lead to devastating contractual liability and risks of defects for the seller. Specific harmful substances that have permeated the ground over years of operation can trigger costs for remediation exceeding tens of millions of yen and legal disputes if discovered after the transfer. This environmental technical document details a methodology for voluntary soil investigations aimed at factory owners and corporate general affairs and asset management departments to perfectly contain post-sale troubles. By conducting voluntary historical investigations that analyze factory layout diagrams and chemical handling histories, the degree of contamination risk is accurately mapped by area. Furthermore, by conducting sampling and official analysis in optimal locations based on that data, reliable evidence is built to prove the safety of the land. The specialized investigations provided by the designated research organization Geotech build trust with buyers through neutral certification and comprehensively support the safe sale of factory sites.

basic information
This is the technical specification for voluntary soil surveys addressing the diverse chemical substances in the manufacturing industry. In the historical investigation, we thoroughly examine the operational history of the factory, hazardous substance handling notification documents, structural drawings of drainage pits, and records of the use and storage of organic solvents and heavy metals. For on-site sampling, we use specialized tools suitable for sampling oil and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and we conduct soil core sampling and soil gas concentration measurements according to depth. The analysis is conducted in accordance with official methods, performing high-precision screening for all specific hazardous substances, as well as leaching and content tests for specific substances, and we prepare reports that demonstrate legal compliance.

Applications/Examples of results
It is utilized for the prior assessment of transaction defect risks during the closure, relocation, or sale of manufacturing sites such as metal processing, chemical industry, printing companies, and automobile maintenance factories. It is used as robust objective data to verify soil safety before contracts and to clearly state contamination-related liability clauses and risk sharing in the sales contract. Additionally, it is widely used as base data for regular environmental governance audits of operating factories, the development of leakage prevention measures due to aging underground piping, and the evaluation of environmental liabilities in the manufacturing sector during M&A.
