Landmark Information<\/a> has announced the publication of the second edition of its Data Insights Report, which reports on the history and origin of land contamination across England and Wales<\/h2>\n

The Data Insights Report provides an insight into land contamination risk, regulated under part 2a of the Environmental Protection Act 1990.<\/p>\n

This includes past industrial processes, waste disposal<\/a> practices, military activities, or accidents that may have released substances on or in the land, which has the potential to be harmful to human health, damage property, impact ecosystems or pollute coastal, surface, and groundwater<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The report also offers valuable insight into the ten local authorities with the most Recorded Landfill Sites – all of which are located in the South East of England \u2013 with Spelthorne Borough Council leading the ranking with 20% of its land designated in this category.<\/p>\n

This is followed by the London Borough of Hounslow, Thurrock Borough Council, London Borough of Havering and London Borough of Barking And Dagenham.<\/p>\n

The report also takes into consideration the historic land use of the sites, taking into account manmade risks as well as naturally occurring land contaminants.<\/p>\n

\u2018Understanding the health of land and property is paramount\u2019<\/h3>\n

Chris Loaring, managing director of Landmark Information (Legal), said, \u201cAt Landmark, we provide data that helps to mitigate risk for our clients and helps them make due diligence decisions faster.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnderstanding the health of land and property is paramount in making those decisions. While we live on a relatively small island, the land has been used intensively since the 1700s.<\/p>\n

\u201cTherefore, having the ability to understand and assess historic and current land use, as well as naturally occurring hazards, is an essential element of managing our land use as it continues to evolve.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe latest edition of our Data Insights report provides a valuable insight into contaminated land risk as derived from our data, as well as information relating to the role of the Part 2A of the Environmental Act 1990 and the associated obligations that landowners, land developers and local authorities need to consider.\u201d<\/p>\n
