Bespoke Solutions
Contaminated Land / Brownfield Consultancy
Before work can begin, it is often necessary to clear the site of any existing structures, vegetation, and waste.
Introduction
Successful brownfield development begins long before a machine breaks ground. At Provectus, our land remediation and contaminated land consultancy service provides the technical foundations that every remediation project depends on — from initial site assessment and risk evaluation through to remediation design and regulatory approval.
We work with developers, landowners, and local authorities to unlock the potential of contaminated and brownfield land, delivering bespoke consultancy grounded in rigorous science, practical experience, and a genuinely collaborative approach to delivery.
Whether you need a contaminated land consultant for a single site assessment or a land remediationpartner to take a complex brownfield project from investigation through to construction-ready delivery, Provectus has the expertise and resource to deliver.
Assessment
Remediation assessment is a crucial step in contaminated land management, enabling us to understand the extent of the contamination, assess the potential risks to human health and the environment, and develop an appropriate remediation strategy.
At Provectus, we conduct thorough contaminated land assessments using a range of methods, including site investigations, sampling and analysis, and risk assessments to identify the nature and extent of contamination. We take a bespoke approach to ensure the most appropriate and cost-effective solution is identified, working closely with clients to develop a remediation strategy that reflects the site's end use, stakeholder expectations, and regulatory requirements.
Our assessments are supported by robust data management and reporting, ensuring clients have the information they need to make informed decisions at every stage.
Drone Surveys
At Provectus, our geospatial program combines novel geoinformatics workflows and advanced Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) technologies to revolutionise engineering and geospatial solutions.
Key services
Geo-Environmental Contaminated Land Assessments
The design and management of sampling strategies utilising a range of techniques including non-intrusive and intrusive site investigation methodologies for the analysis of environmental media and interpretation of the status of site conditions.
Gas Risk Assessments
Establishing design parameters for mitigation measures and managing risks associated with off-site gas migration and incident related advice.
Hydrogeological and Hydrological Assessments
Determining site-specific criteria, supporting contaminated land risk assessment, and provide baseline data to monitor and review potential impacts on receptors.
Qualitative & Quantitative Risk Assessments (QRA)
Assessment of potential impacts on human health, water and the broader environment to derive appropriate remedial targets for soil and groundwater.
Design
Once the contaminated land assessment is complete, our team works with you to design a tailored remediation solution that fits your site-specific requirements, taking into account site geology, contaminants of concern, regulatory and key stakeholder requirements, alongside your project goals.
Our in-house remediation design capabilities are supported by laboratory trials, onsite pilot trials, gassing trials, and geotechnical assessment, enabling us to refine our design approach and ensure its effectiveness. Our design-led solutions provide practical and cost-effective remediation options that minimise disruption to your project and enable you to meet your project goals.
We have a range of remediation techniques at our disposal, including ex-situ and in-situ solutions, and work closely with our clients and stakeholders to ensure the remediation program is transparent and well-communicated.
Key services
Remedial Options Evaluation
Assessment of a broad range of remedial techniques or combination thereof to define the best practicable approach to remediating all pollutant linkages presenting unacceptable risk.
Detailed Options Appraisal
Review of shortlisted remediation options to determine the most appropriate approach, considering the Best Practicable Environmental Option (BPEO), cost benefit, environmental outcomes and appropriate timescales.
MMP and registered QP
Development and implementation of Materials Management Plan (MMPs) is a critical component of the Duty of Care for Contaminated Land (DoWCOP) regulations, ensuring a structured approach to the handling, storage, and disposal of materials generated during site investigations and remediation works.
Volumetric Assessments
Comprehensive assessments using drone survey equipment, ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements, ultimately minimising waste disposal costs and promoting sustainability.
Remediation Design Services
Development of remedial method statements, regulatory negotiations and detailed design, installation, commissioning and operational management of remedial technologies and systems.
Pilot Trial Assessments
Lab and field pilot trials provide a realistic evaluation of land remediation option effectiveness, optimised for site-specific conditions.
