)In respect of decontamination and remedial works, the applicant should be advised of the following:
Where remedial measures are necessary, they should be managed with Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 in mind. Encapsulation of any contaminants should be made on a risk-based assessment so that they are unlikely to be subject to future release to the environment.
All ground investigations shall be risk based and have regard to BS10175:2001 Investigation of Potentially Contaminated Sites - Code of Practice and Environment Agency/NHBC R&D Publication 66 - Guidance for the Safe Development of Housing on Land Affected by Contamination. Any assessments should use the appropriate, authoratative and scientifically based guidelines.
The applicant/agent's consulting engineers shall certify that decontamination and remediation of the site has been undertaken in accordance with any measures approved by the District Planning Authority.
The applicant shall advise the District Planning Authority of commencement of the works.
The applicant should also be made aware that the ownership of land shown to be contaminated may accrue legal and financial liabilities under Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Such liabilities are maximised when "pollutant linkages" engender "pathways" for the contaminants to reach "receptors".
South Bedfordshire District Council has published its Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy in line with the Environmental Protection Act 1990: Part IIA and its definition thereof. No land within the district has yet been formally dseignated as being 'contaminated'. However, it should not be taken to imply that the property or adjoining land is free from contamination.
