contaminated site assessment

Contaminated site assessment is the process of evaluating land or properties to determine if pollutants or hazardous substances are present. This assessment typically involves testing soil, water, and air samples to identify any harmful chemicals. The goal is to understand the extent of contamination, potential risks to human health and the environment, and to inform cleanup efforts if necessary. It plays a crucial role in ensuring safe land use, protecting communities, and addressing environmental concerns effectively.
