About this checklist
Use this checklist to verify that you have met your contaminated land obligations. It covers the main compliance steps for businesses that own, occupy, or are purchasing land that may be contaminated. Work through each section and address any gaps before they become enforcement risks.
This checklist applies primarily to England. Scotland and Northern Ireland have separate regulatory frameworks, noted in the callouts below.
