Contaminated land is a problem, both in the short and long term, as it cannot be used without remediation. The investigation and analysis of the problem, along with the legal responsibilities surrounding the issues, continue to present difficulties to those wishing to use or develop a contaminated site. This edition has been fully updated to take account of advances in the field. It should be of interest to environmental consultants, geotechnical engineers, and planning and regulatory authorities.
