"Contaminated land may pose environmental, health and safety liabilities which will ultimately affect the financial success of an organisation. Current legislation requires landowners and managers to remediate contaminated land. It is possible to negotiate the remedial goals based on a site's environmental setting."

APPROACH:

Options for the remediation of contaminated groundwater are usually considered following an environmental risk based approach.

The preferred option will depend on the nature of the contamination, costs, time, clean-up goals, practicality and the end land use.

WHY MANAGE CONTAMINATED LAND?

• Because you and your company care for the environment
• To avoid prosecution
• To limit negative impact on worker and public health and safety
• It will ultimately reduce your company's financial bottom line
• Your customers and markets will require you to operate a clean site
