Contaminated land

The contaminated land inspection strategy deals with the following topics:

• The legal definition of contaminated land
• The role of the Environmental Agency
• The relevant legislation
• A profile of the Borough of Wandsworth, and possibility of contaminated land in the area
• The names and contact details for the relevant officers
• The aims and objectives of the strategy
• How the inspection process will be carried out
• Provision of information
• Consultation and liaison with other organisations

The inspection strategy has been amended in January 2012 and will be fully reviewed when revised guidance has been issued by the Government.

The Government has consulted on revised statutory guidance and the inspection strategy will be reviewed once this guidance has been issued.
