What is contaminated land?
Industrial processes, dumping, waste and other sources of contamination are to blame
Contamination is usually caused by:
- industrial activities, or
- disposal of rubbish/waste at tips and landfill sites
We have a duty to identify and investigate contaminated sites in Hart.
Requests for information
Please email us at eh@hart.gov.uk to ask about sites that may be contaminated as a result of former land use.
We also offer technical advice on requirements for development sites. Our planning advice page has information about fees and how to apply.
