| Short description: |
This issue explores some of the aspects referred to above
and provides an overview of important topics within the
contaminated land arena. Recent changes to government
guidance are explained in detail and various facets
of land contamination risk assessment, including the
analysis of uncertainty, are reviewed. Currently available
techniques for remediating sites are highlighted, as are
the principles of sustainable remediation. Case study
material is also provided, while the UK’s contaminated
land regulation is discussed in a thought-provoking
manner.
