Identification of Contaminated Land - “Part IIA” Regime
Southampton's industrial past presents a risk of land in the city being subject to land contamination.
A new statutory regime came into force on 1 April 2000 in England. It is an improved way of identifying and cleaning contaminated land, known as “Part IIA”.
