EIC Contaminated Land Group

EIC’s contaminated land group explores the issue in detail championing brownfield development across the UK. The group brings together members working across the sector - consultants, contractors, and the laboratories that carry out soil testing. Much of the initial funding for land clean-up has dried up in recent years and government support for brownfield development has been intermittent at best, with greenfield sites often seen by housebuilders and developers as the simpler solution.

The contaminated land group has successfully campaigned for a brownfield first approach to development, spearheaded an award-winning campaign to stop land remediation tax relief, and contributed to setting technical standards around the treatment of asbestos in soils.

To participate, please contact Dave Campbell, Director of Member Services.
