Prerequisite
You require authorisation for the following earth fills/excavations:
- The backfill/excavation is located in an outdoor area and
- the backfill/excavation is more than two metres high or deep or it covers more than 500 square metres.
Even if you do not require a permit (e.g. for small backfills), you must note that backfills/excavations are generally not permitted on certain excluded areas, that certain points must be observed on agricultural land, that there are certain suitability requirements for the excavated soil and that the consent of the municipality is required.
Land fills and excavations are deemed to be building structures within the meaning of Section 2 of the State Building Regulations for Baden-Württemberg (LBO). The provisions of nature conservation law, water law, soil protection and waste law must be observed for landfills/excavations.
Procedure
If you are planning a backfill or excavation, you should contact the responsible authority in advance and, if necessary, apply for a permit afterwards. The information required for this will be automatically forwarded to the relevant authorities once it has been entered in the service portal.
Deadlines
It is advisable to contact the responsible authority as early as possible. It is conceivable that further questions or additional requirements may arise regarding your application, which may take additional time. You should contact your competent authority at least one month before the start of the project.
