Although the end of the Cold War has paved the way to a substantial
demilitarisation and conversion, the leftovers of this process a"
such as former military installations, military training areas, and
huge quantities of unserviceable ammunition and equipment a" still
pose a severe threat to the environment of both NATO and Partner
countries.
The rehabilitation of these areas for civilian uses is extremely
costly and is generally in the short and medium term not possible.
For this reason, the development of new methods for the estimation
avoidance of risks should receive special priority. In the context
of this ARW, the reconnaissance and appraisal of conversion areas
with respect to costs, returns, and legal considerations were
discussed. The decades-long use of some areas led to the heavy
loading of contaminates. Every task of conversion has as its goal
the elimination of dangers to humans and nature, and the return of
areas to civil use, such that these areas can be used realise
economic interests of the society.
The conversion of former military areas represents one of the
greatest challenges of the 21st Century, and demands considerable
expenditures on the part of society if it is to be properly
addressed. Further discussion of these issues and the recognition
of the need for further research are important steps towards the
return of former military areas to civilian usage.
