Wildy's Book of the Month - January 2008
This work makes available a complete analysis of the complex law relating to contaminated land in one well-organised source. It deals in depth with liability for contamination, but also systematically covers issues such as the assessment of contamination, redevelopment and clean-up, and the impact of contaminated land on property and corporate transactions.
Bringing together relevant aspects of environmental, planning, health and safety, contract, insolvency and EU initiatives and other international issues, it provides a one-stop reference on this important area of law. It includes full analysis of and authoritative commentary on all relevant legislation and guidance; lucid explanation of exactly what the current system requires; clear guidance on the procedures for notices, enforcement and appeals; and, examination of the obligations and potential liabilities of landowners and occupiers.
