Document background
The Coal Mining Risk Assessment Report is a mandatory technical document required in Germany for development projects in areas affected by historical or current coal mining activities. It is prepared in accordance with the Bundesberggesetz (Federal Mining Act) and related regulations, serving as a crucial tool for risk evaluation and management. The report is typically required during property development, infrastructure projects, or when assessing the safety of existing structures in mining-affected areas. It combines historical mining records, geological data, site investigations, and technical analysis to identify potential hazards and recommend appropriate mitigation measures. The document is essential for obtaining necessary permits and ensuring compliance with German mining and safety regulations, while also providing critical information for insurers, developers, and property owners.
