Tech/Engineering - Environment & Ecology / subsurface protection requirements
English term or phrase: like-for-like streams / like-to-like streams
Es geht um einen Fragebogen eines weltweit tätigen US-Industrieunternehmens zum Thema Pollution Prevention. Der Fragebogen ist von Prüfern oder Selbsteinschätzern auszufüllen.

"Subsurface Protection Requirements
Subsurface Disposal of ***Like-For-Like Streams***
The controlled return of ***like-to-like streams*** -- such as brine, to deep wells in permeable subsurface formations and salt caverns-- is an acceptable practice."
"Does the operation involve the return of a stream that is a ***like-to-like stream***?
Guidance: If yes, then no further action – If no, the operation should be noted as a concern."

Ob hier bewusst ein Unterschied gemacht wird zwischen "like-for-like" und "like-to-like" ist mir nicht ganz klar.
Habe "flächenbereinigt" gefunden, damit kann ich hier gar nichts anfangen.
