| Long description: |
There is little doubt that our climate is changing. Proper management of
contaminated land must require an understanding of the magnitude of this risk
to current, and future, pollutant linkages between source and potential
receptors. It is almost inevitable that changes in environmental conditions and
processes will affect the standards of remediation required to ensure receptors
are not significantly impacted in the future. Remediation choices being made
should be influenced by future land use, climatic conditions and societal
demographics. Tools and guidance are needed now to assist the remediation
industry in developing and adapting techniques so that they will be sustainable
into this future. This bulletin summarises the work carried out as part of the
SUBR:IM (Sustainable Urban Brownfield Regeneration: Integrated Management)
research consortium. It examines current stakeholder perspectives and
strategies, provides preliminary technical evidence of potential impacts of
climate change on contaminated land and remediation systems and discusses
potential technical adaptation strategies.
