CE7 Contaminated Land

The Council will consider the potential risks of contaminated land and will ensure that it is adequately mitigated before development proceeds.

To deliver this the Council will:

  • require the reports and investigations shown in criteria (b) to (e) to be carried out by a competent person;
  • require a desk top study and preliminary risk assessment;
  • require a site investigation and detailed risk assessment in line with current best practice guidance;
  • require a remediation strategy that sets out how any identified risks from the reports above are going to be addressed;
  • require a validation report once remediation has taken place.
