AB  - The present article attempts to investigate organochlorine pesticides' (OCPs) 
      contamination in soils from polluted sites and to assess the soil quality in the 
      study area. HCHs and eight other persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pesticides 
      were studied in surface soil samples collected from a new (F) and an old (G) 
      pesticide factory in Southeast China. According to the measured results, surface 
      soils from F and G were contaminated with HCHs, DDTs, HCB, and chlordane, with 
      beta-HCH and p,p'-DDT being the two dominant substances. The total OCPs 
      concentrations of surface soils from F and G were 0.84 and 166mgkg(-1) 
      respectively. Cluster analysis was performed to group the soil sites in terms of 
      their total OCPs contamination levels. The ratios of alpha-HCH/gamma-HCH, 
      o,p'-DDT/p,p'-DDT, and trans-/cis- chlordane in some of the soil samples are 
      similar to their technical products in the study area which indicates the lack of 
      hazardous waste management practices of the pesticide production and 
      transportation. According to GB 15618-1995, the HCHs could be classified as light 
      pollution and little pollution for F and G, whereas DDTs levels of F and G could 
      be defined as little pollution and heavy pollution, respectively. This study 
      indicates that surface soils, especially residential area soils from F and G were 
      facing varying degrees of pollutions. The situation is more hazardous due to the 
      continuous exposure of the population that lives in the surroundings. Therefore, 
      on-site remediation technologies and the best available techniques/best 
      environmental practices (BAT/BEP) should be carried out on these factories with 
      the national implementation of the Stockholm Convention.
