Projects underway

Community of Practice - Sustainable management of soil
This project will create a community of practice which will undertake a number of activities to support long term good practice in the sustainable management of soil.
 
Perfluorinated alkylated substances (PFAS) in soil and water environments
This project will produce guidance to improve awareness and understanding of PFAS and legislations, helping practitioners to understand their responsibilities and liabilities as well as support them in managing risk.
 
Innovative site investigation hub
This project will keep contaminated land practitioners, regulators and other stakeholders up-to-date with latest development, understand the benefits and limitations, theory and practical, safe and cost effective application of these new approaches
