Contaminated Land
Environmental Services undertake the Council’s work on
contaminated land
The Government introduced Part IIA of the Environmental
Protection Act 1990, inserted by the Environment Act 1995 as
legislation to tackle the legacy of Contaminated Land. This
legislation, known as the Contaminated Land Regime gives us
responsibilities to deal with Contaminated Land. Our Contaminated
Land Inspection Strategy outlines the way in which Wychavon is
looking to do this. This document also summarises all the different
activities undertaken by us in this area of work. For details of
ongoing work on contaminated land undertaken by Wychavon see our information
page.
Issues concerning contaminated land may involve many technical
terms and precise legal definitions. See our Frequently
Asked Questions page for more information.
The Contaminated Land Officer co-ordinates our work in this area
including:
Although personal callers are welcomed during office
hours, appointments should be made where technical advice or
information is sought.
