Short description: This document aims to provide guidance on designing and implementing verification activities to increase confidence in the outcome of a remediation strategy. Four key stages are identified in the verification process: 1. Developing the remediation strategy – planning verification is an integral part of this process and involves the review of information already available and collected during development of the remediation strategy. 2. Developing the verification plan – including identification of the roles, responsibilities and sampling approach needed to demonstrate that remediation objectives are satisfied. 3. Implementation of the verification plan, with production and communication of the verification report. 4. Long-term monitoring and maintenance, where needed to satisfy long-term remediation objectives.
