The research is summarised in a new report, supported by BGS, which is aimed at Government ministers, policymakers and senior business leaders interested in the growth and investment missions for brownfield-led housing and infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>The NBF is an active group of over 30 public and private members, originally set up in 2011 by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG), now the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG). The forum focuses on knowledge sharing around the sustainable re-use of land. The NBF is administered by the charity CL:AIRE as secretariat and a two-year rolling chair.<\/p>\n<p>Nicola Harries, technical director at CL:AIRE, said: \u201cThis project was a great example of how both the public and private sector can work collaboratively together for the benefit of the brownfield industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Balancing sustainability with efficient project delivery<\/h3>\n<p>The research explored a variety of factors that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/brownfield-passports-could-speed-up-housebuilding\/143946\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">impact brownfield development delivery<\/a>, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Development delays and additional costs due to conflict between groundwater policies for abstraction, treatment and discharge of groundwater<\/li>\n<li>Landfill Redevelopment under the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016<\/li>\n<li>Regulatory positions and the role of citizen science<\/li>\n<li>The challenge of effective regulatory engagement<\/li>\n<li>Insufficient land contamination information provided with planning applications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>BGS supported the work using its National Capability funding<\/h3>\n<p>The report published by CL:AIRE on behalf of the NBF,<a href=\"https:\/\/claire.co.uk\/component\/phocadownload\/category\/113-2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Interactions between government policies affecting the planning and development of brownfield land in England<\/a> (31.6 MB PDF) is now available to download, as are the evidence cards (2.2 MB PDF).<\/p>\n<p>Dr Darren Beriro, current NBF chair and principal geoscientist at BGS, said: \u201cThe report findings demonstrate the need to improve how environmental and planning policies in England interact to support the planning and development of brownfield land. The evidence collected suggests that this will increase the amount of brownfield land that is being successfully re-used for housing and infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe NBF research demonstrates a shared and strong commitment to the sustainable development of brownfield land and support for an active policy landscape.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National Brownfield Forum research on the interactions of policies affecting the planning and development of brownfield land has been published. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":154497,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[734,579,952,273],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-154496","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","8":"tag-brownfield","9":"tag-infrastructure","10":"tag-planning","11":"tag-research-innovation"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>New research on impact of sustainability policies on brownfield land development published<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"National Brownfield Forum has published a report on the interactions of policies affecting the planning and development of brownfield land\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/new-research-impact-sustainability-policies-brownfield-land-development\/154496\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"New research on impact of sustainability policies on brownfield land development published\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"National Brownfield Forum has published a report on the interactions of policies affecting the planning and development of brownfield land\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/new-research-impact-sustainability-policies-brownfield-land-development\/154496\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
