AB The aim of this study was to examine if the soils and waters of Puertollano area are affected by pollution ofpolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their quantification. The results show that PAHs concentrationsare higher in all samples than the reference levels gathered in the Spanish legislation. The possible actionsfor the coal waste remediation (re-wash of waste dumps, photodegradation and biorremediation) seemsto be unviable in this case because of the large volume of materials affected, the slowness of these processes,and the geomorphological characteristics of the carboniferous Puertollano basin. During the spatial regionalplanning, maps showing the concentration of PAHs should be made to adapt the soil for its correspondinguse. It is proposed to consider as contaminants more PAHs, such as naftalene or fluorantene in waters,and phenanthrene and benzo[ghi]perilene in soils
