Our policies, plans and strategies - Contaminated land strategy

The main purpose of the strategy is to explain how Harborough District Council will inspect the area for potentially contaminated land. It is anticipated that during this process a large amount of information will be collected. Some of this information will be confidential but a large proportion will be available for public viewing. This strategy also explains how the information will be managed and how it can be accessed.

The guide is designed to offer guidance to property owners, developers, architects and surveyors when applying to develop, or significantly change the use of a piece of land, which may be contaminated.
