We will only investigate as far as is necessary before agreeing any needed remediation strategy with the enforcing authorities. To hold down costs and move the project on, some of our work can be incorporated into the development phases, using your own workforce if appropriate.
We are of the opinion that the submission of inappropriate Phase 1 Desk Top studies and Phase 2 intrusive contamination survey reporting to the authorities for approval is commonplace. The result of insufficient investigations is the development being disrupted as the rejected investigation is redone or expanded. On the other hand, the result of an excessively cautious assessment is costly over remediation. In many cases, the developer is oblivious to the extent of unnecessary clean up or over engineering built into the solution. Unfortunately, it is our experience that the latter scenario prevails (particularly for smaller and medium sized developers), as it is the'fail safe' outcome for the contaminated land adviser- all at the expense of the developer.
