The main goal of this article was to assess the environmental impact of pollutants from anthropogenic sources (tanning plant) using environmental indicators (I_geo – geoaccumulation index, CF – contamination factor). The assessment was carried out based on the results of total chromium content in soil samples collected in the area of an inoperative tanning plant. Based on the obtained results of total content, significant chromium concentrations were found in the discussed area. All obtained chromium concentrations in the analyzed soil samples exceeded the geochemical background level and the specification limit for group II of soils, i.e. protected areas, defined by a Decree of the Minister of Natural Environment (2016). Based on the obtained results of I_geo and CF, the soils in the analyzed area should be considered highly polluted with chromium.

本文的主要目的是使用环境指标（I _geo –_地质累积指数，CF –污染因子）评估人为来源（制革厂）污染物的环境影响。评估是基于在停用的制革厂所在地区收集的土壤样品中总铬含量的结果进行的。根据获得的总含量结果，在讨论的区域发现了明显的铬浓度。经分析的土壤样品中所有获得的铬浓度均超过了地球化学背景水平，并超出了自然环境部长法令（2016年）所规定的第二类土壤（即保护区）的标准限值。根据获得的I _geo结果 和CF，应认为分析区域的土壤被铬高度污染。
