There is now a legal obligation for Local Authorities
to identify and assess the risks associated with previously
used land and from this to produce a register, and a remediation
strategy. Likewise, there is interest at National and
Regional Government level for such ‘brown-land’
to be re-used and resulting pressure on developers to
follow this guidance.
The key to the successful identification of risks and
liabilities is a targeted, site-specific, investigation
that has been designed taking into
account the past, current and proposed land-use.
Our experienced team of geo-scientists, chemists, and
environmental engineers can provide a fully integrated
advisory service for the design, investigation and assessment
of previously used industrial land, including :-
