5. draft Ministerial Decree approving the compendium for the sampling, measurement and analysis of air (LUC)
6. methods for sampling and carrying out measurements and analyses on air pursuant to the Act of 28 December 1964 on the control of air pollution and its implementing decrees, and Titles II and III of VLAREM
7.
8. Flemish legislation requires that certain samplings, measurements and analyses of air must be carried out by accredited laboratories, or may be carried out by the operator itself under certain conditions. These accredited laboratories and operators must apply the methods set out in the compendium for the sampling, measurement and analysis of air, abbreviated LUC.
The LUC compendium consists of nine parts:
- general methods with quality and reporting requirements,
- methods for the determination of dust-like components with isokinetic sampling (emission measurements),
- methods for the determination of gaseous waste gas components with measuring devices measured (emission measurements),
- methods for the determination of gaseous components or total (gas + dust) by chemical sampling, wet or otherwise (emission measurements),
- methods for the determination of volatile organic compounds (emission measurements),
- methods for the determination of highly volatile organic compounds sampled in gaseous form (emission measurements),
- methods for the determination of heavy components with multi-stage sampling (dioxins, PAHs, PCBs) (emission measurements),
- methods for diffuse emissions, emission factors, efficiency determinations and the like,
- methods for the determination of organic substances (immission measurements).
The compendium is approved by ministerial decree.
Only the methods that are new or that have changed compared to the previously notified LUC compendium (reference 2024/0553/BE) are notified in the attached Word document. These methods are indicated in bold in the table of contents of the compendium. Amended parts among the methods are indicated in red.
9. The methods to be applied under certain Flemish regulations for the sampling, measurement and analysis of air are laid down in a compendium. These methods are in line with European and international standards, and are supplemented where necessary for the specific purpose envisaged with air quality legislation. The compendium is updated annually based on international developments and research, in consultation with accredited laboratories, the relevant Flemish reference laboratory (VITO) and the competent government agency (the Environment Department).
The present draft Ministerial Decree updates a number of sampling, measurement and analysis methods for air and adds new methods.
