Intrusive Environmental Surveys for Planning Support

At Castledine Environmental, we conduct professional Phase 2 Intrusive Investigations to assess land contamination and provide vital data for development planning. These investigations are essential when a Phase 1 Desk Study identifies the potential for contamination on a proposed development site.

A typical Phase 2 investigation includes intrusive sampling, such as trial pitting or boreholes, to extract soil and groundwater samples. We also carry out gas monitoring where necessary. All samples are analysed at accredited laboratories, and results are interpreted by experienced environmental consultants.

Our Phase 2 reports include:

Site conceptual models

Risk assessments to human health and the environment

Remediation recommendations (if required)

Full planning compliance summaries

These reports are critical for satisfying local authority planning conditions and meeting environmental obligations under planning law. We help ensure that your site is safe for its intended use and that risks are managed responsibly and efficiently.

Castledine Environmental supports developers and landowners from start to finish, offering practical, fast-turnaround solutions backed by technical expertise.
