Reliable soil research
The BRL SIKB 2000 relates to environmental (water) soil research according to the Soil Quality Decree (Bbk). Laws and regulations require that this research is carried out by a certified and recognized company. If this is not done, you are acting in violation of the law and can be regarded as an environmental crime.
With a BRL SIKB 2000 certificate you demonstrate that your organization meets the quality requirements and works professionally within the legal framework.
This is how certification under the BRL SIKB 2000 works
The BRL SIKB 2000 describes clear ground rules for proper preparation and execution of work. It contains four protocols:
- Protocol 2001: Placing hand augers and monitoring wells, making drill descriptions and taking soil samples.
- Protocol 2002: Taking groundwater samples
- Protocol 2003: Veldwerk bij milieuhygiënisch waterbodemonderzoek [Fieldwork in environmentally-hygienic aquatic soil investigation].
- Protocol 2018: Ground level inspection and sampling of asbestos in soil
Depending on your organization's activities, you can be certified for one or more protocols. This way the certification always matches your practice.
