We manage databases of sites that may have been affected by land contamination due to historic uses. Reviewing this information may indicate the possibility of an active contamination pathway, but further investigations may have taken place, or may be required, to understand the actual risks.
If you are concerned that you may live on a site that could be contaminated, you can contact us by emailing pollution@centralbedfordshire.gov.uk to find out whether we hold any relevant information. Please note that a fee may be payable for this service. Various commercial suppliers also provide environmental data that may help in this regard.
Land that has been independently determined by the Council to pose a significant risk and subsequently cleaned up (or remediated) to an appropriate protective standard is placed on the Public Register under Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
