The Contaminated Land Statutory Guidance for Wales 2012 deals with contaminated land under Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990.

The Guidance takes a precautionary approach but allows regulators to make quicker decisions about whether or not land is contaminated under Part 2A. This will prevent costly remediation operations being undertaken unnecessarily. It will also offer better protection against potential health impacts by concentrating on sites where action is actually needed.
