Contaminated land and the methods and legal controls governing its
reclamation for subsequent development and use are of great current
interest and concern. This volume in the Issues in Environmental
Science and Technology series contains seven articles which treat
the many aspects of this subject, ranging from risk assessment and
risk management, through specific remediation methods and the
evolution of government policy and controls, to analysis of the
legal and technical features of specific environmental insurance
policies. The chemistry of the non-ferrous heavy metals lead, zinc
and cadmium is examined in relation to reclamation of superfund
sites in the USA alongside a consideration of the role of the Welsh
Development Agency in developing strategies for the recovery of
derelict and contaminated land. An authoritative treatment of each
of the topics is ensured by the particular expertise and
distinction of the authors, and as such Contaminated Land and Its
Reclamation will make an important contribution to the public
debate on these issues. It will be essential reading for all those
groups of people directly or indirectly involved, from consultants
and their technical advisors, through developers, contractors and
landowners, to local authorities and government agencies with
responsibility for policy and its implementation in this area.
