Nederlands term

bodemonderzoek

Non-PRO Nederlands naar Engels Overig Juridisch: Contract(en)
My dictionary rather unhelpfully only gives 'soil research'.
This is from a Belgian property rental contract

"Een bodemonderzoek zal ook op kosten van de huurder uitgevoerd worden"

soil test

I imagine they test the soil to ensure that it has not been contaminated.

If this is a test in advance of septic work, it could be a "perc test" (percolation), but that doesn't seem likely given that this is about a tenant and not an owner.
