Site investigation of a former dry cleaner in Hörby

Hörby, 2017

The property, now housing homes and business premises in central Hörby, had a dry cleaner from 1966 to 2009. The county administrative board placed it in risk class 2 (high risk). We investigated the ground at 8 points, with soil samples at several depths and groundwater samples from every point. Chlorinated hydrocarbons were found at fairly high levels next to the former dry cleaner, decreasing with distance. Modelling shows the interpreted extent of the contamination in plan and depth.
