Remediation Strategy Reports

Remediation strategies to address and rectify contamination issues, making the land safe for development.

Once a site has been thoroughly assessed in Phase 1 and Phase 2 investigations, the next critical step is to implement a remediation strategy to address and rectify contamination issues, making the land safe for development.

Remediation Strategy Reports focus on breaking the “Source-Pathway-Receptor” pollutant linkages, which are essential to mitigate risks associated with contaminated land. By addressing these linkages, any remaining planning conditions can be resolved, allowing development to proceed without further hindrance.

Types of Remediation

Depending on the size of the site and the nature of contamination, remediation strategies can vary widely.

They may range from straightforward measures, such as installing a gas-proof membrane in building foundations to prevent gas ingress, to more complex solutions like large-scale bioremediation or in-situ treatment of organic contaminants. Common remediation techniques include:

Gas-Proof Membranes: To prevent harmful gases from entering buildings.
Excavation and Removal: Of contaminated soils or materials.
Bioremediation: Treating organic contaminants using biological processes.

Complex Sites

For sites with significant contamination or complex histories, a combination of remediation methods may be employed. This approach aims to achieve sustainability, reduce costs, and ensure the site is safe for redevelopment. Effective remediation starts with accurate site characterisation from Phase 1 and Phase 2 assessments, providing the foundation for designing and implementing a successful remediation scheme.

Verification and Reporting

Once remediation is complete, we prepare a comprehensive Verification Report. This report confirms that the remediation strategy was executed correctly, details any additional unexpected contamination issues addressed, and includes chemical validation testing results. It ensures that all regulatory requirements are met, facilitating the discharge of planning conditions.

Materials Management Plan (MMP)

In addition to remediation, we offer assistance with creating a Materials Management Plan (MMP) and obtaining Qualified Person sign-off under the CL:AIRE Code of Practice. This plan helps manage and re-use soils efficiently, reducing regulatory burdens and aligning with environmental guidelines.

Additional Services: We also support with:

Remediation Action Plans (RAPs): For medium to large sites, summarising all assessment stages and results.
Materials Management Plan (MMP): To facilitate compliance and reduce regulatory hurdles.
