Alerte aux PFAS en Flandre : 210 habitants appelés à la plus grande prudence après la découverte d'une pollution historique des sols

Environ 210 habitants de Pelt sont invités à la prudence suite à la découverte d'une pollution historique aux PFAS et aux huiles minérales sur le site de l'entreprise Dilissen Logistics. Il leur est recommandé de ne plus utiliser l'eau des puits privés, de limiter la consommation d'œufs de leurs poules et de laver soigneusement les fruits et légumes du jardin. Cette mesure fait suite à une étude exploratoire des sols révélant une contamination des eaux souterraines par d'anciennes activités de galvanisation.
