Contaminated Assessments & Management Services
Contaminated land is largely a symptom of historical land use(s), often resulting from industrial, agricultural and mining activities, and the manufacture, use and disposal of chemicals. Whilst the Environmental Protection Act 1986 provides for the prevention, control and abatement of pollution and environmental harm, and for the conservation, preservation, protection, enhancement and management of the environment, the need for legislation specifically addressing contaminated site assessment and management was needed. Public concern regarding the health risks associated with the redevelopment of land formerly used for waste disposal, industrial or commercial purposes, triggered the Contaminated Sites Act 2003 and related legislation (including the Contaminated Sites Regulations 2006) to identify, manage and remediate contaminated land.
360 Environmental’s soil water and air team provide specialised advice relating to site contamination and pollution assessments. Without expert advice and guidance, contamination of land and groundwater can pose significant legal, time and financial restrictions on property owners and result in risks to the environment and public health. 360 Environmental recognises the importance of Client project planning requirements and strives to provide innovative situation-specific solutions which meet, or exceed, both environmental requirements and Client expectations.
360 Environmental applies a strategic approach to site assessment consistent with the Contaminated Site Management Series (2001-2010). 360 Environmental offers a range of services from preliminary site investigations, planning and implementation of remedial and validation services, to coordination with regulatory authorities and procurement of planning approvals. 360 Environmental has an excellent understanding of the assessment and auditing process including good repour with various Contaminated Site Auditors to ensure that projects, including project reporting, meet regulatory requirements.
