EXECUTIVE SUMMARY SCOPE This report has been prepared for the purpose of assisting in the evaluation of Purpose of the potential risk associated with contamination issues at the site which is required as Report part of the planning application for the development of the site. It is understood that the client wishes to redevelop the site for a residential end Future Site End-use usage. REL have not been presented with proposed development plans. SITE INFORMATION Grid Reference 400280, 570100 The subject site currently comprises a number of agricultural buildings associated with High Baulk Farm. These largely include barns utilised for livestock (sheep) and general storage and are of sandstone construction with slate roofing, with the exception of the large middle barn which is of breezeblock construction with cement fibre roof. Current Site Status The site is largely covered by gravel hardstanding utilised as an internal roadway. A diesel bunded tank is located on the western portion of the site upon concrete. No evidence of staining or leakages were noted. No issues of environmental significance were noted associated with the current use of the site. The historical assessment has identified that the site has comprised High Baulk Farm since pre-1861 until the present day. Surrounding features of note include History ‘Leadgates’ (likely a residential dwelling) 200m north-east of the site since pre-1861 and a number of potentially infilled water bodies and an ‘old quarry’ noted on the historic mapping. The site is underlain by superficial drift deposits comprising Devensian Till superficial Geology deposits and solid geology comprising the Stainmore Formation. Based on the information available on the Coal Authority Interactive Map Viewer and the information provided within the Coal Authority Coal Mining Report, REL can conclude that there is no significant risk from coal mining or coal mine related Coal Mining Risk activities at the subject site. In addition, there is no plausible potential for stythe gas generation beneath the subject site. The superficial drift and solid geology underlying the site are classified as Secondary (Undifferentiated) and Secondary (A) Aquifers respectively. The subject site is not situated within a Groundwater Source Protection Zone, and there are no water Hydrogeology abstraction licences recorded within 1km of the subject site. In addition, the site is situated within Flood Zone 1. As such, the site location is considered to be of Low environmental sensitivity.

The nearest surface water course is the River Pont located approximately 578m to Hydrology the south-east of the site.

The site is located in a low probability radon area, in which less than 1% of homes are estimated to be at or above the radon action level. As a consequence, no Radon radon protection measures will be required in the construction of new dwellings or extensions. The regulatory database has identified an absence of any significant source- pathway-receptor pollutant linkages and it is unlikely that the site would be Regulatory investigate under Part 2A of the Contaminated Land Regime. Consultation A review of Northumberland County Council’s online Planning Portal has not identified any planning applications relating to the site.

RISK ASSESSMENT (P OTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT POLLUTANT LINKAGES ) No potentially significant sources of contamination have been identified at the subject site. It is unlikely, given the site’s history, that significant amounts of Made Ground are present. In addition, there is no plausible potential for stythe gas Source Source generation beneath the subject site. Direct contact (with people, services and plant roots), ingestion or inhalation of gas/vapour, dusts and/or fibres; Lateral migration of contamination to adjacent areas, direct contact and ingestion of potentially harmful concentrations of contaminants; Hazard Migration of mobile contaminants into groundwater; Pathway Pathway Identification Migration and build-up of explosive ground/stythe gas and/or volatile vapours in confined spaces (where present). Site users and potential visitors and trespassers; Future construction workers and structures; Future residents; Occupants of adjacent residential properties and structures;

Receptor Planting within landscaped areas and gardens; Groundwater. CONCLUSIONS It is understood that the client is proposing to redevelop the site for a residential end use. Based on the information obtained during the desk study it is concluded that the environmental risk arising from the ground condition at the subject site when taking into account the sites current status and usage is Low. Risk Estimation When considering the proposed redevelopment of the site for a residential usage, it is concluded that the potential environmental risk to arising from the ground condition at the subject site would be Low. Based on the above, it is the opinion of Roberts Environmental, that the issues identified should not preclude the future redevelopment of the site assuming the recommendations as presented below are adopted.

As part of the proposed redevelopment, we recommend that the client undertakes the following actions:  As part of the redevelopment of the site which will involve the disturbance or Recommendations demolition of the building or parts of the building, a refurbishment and demolition asbestos survey should be carried out and the information provided to the contractors undertaking the work.  Future construction/ground workers shall be subject to a suitable and sufficient risk assessment and provided with and make use of appropriate PPE.

3. Description

The following table provides a summary of site conditions.

Issue Description Site Name High Baulk Farm Address Great Whittington, Northumberland, NE19 2HB National Grid Reference 400280, 570100 Site Area 0.22 hectares

Tenure Freehold Occupancy Operational Site Description and The subject site currently comprises a number of Activities agricultural buildings associated with High Baulk Farm. These largely include barns utilised for livestock (sheep) and general storage and are of sandstone with slate roofing, with the exception of the large middle barn which is of breezeblock construction with cement fibre roof. The site is largely covered by gravel hardstanding utilised as an internal roadway. A diesel bunded tank is located on the western portion of the site upon concrete. No evidence of staining or leakages were noted. No issues of environmental significance were noted associated with the current use of the site. From an environmental perspective the current operations on site are not considered to pose a significant ground contamination risk to the continued use of the property. Surrounding land uses High Baulk Farm and farmhouse is present on land adjacent to the west. It is understood that a recent planning application has been approved to change the class of the barn adjacent to the north-west into a holiday property. Surrounding the site in all directions is undeveloped agricultural land, with the closest residential property approximately 180m to the north-east. Great Whittington is approximately 600m north-east. Site Gradient The subject site is largely flat, due to its developed nature. The access road slopes slightly to the east. Further localised variations in topography may also be present in some areas. Proposed Use It is understood that the Client wishes to convert the existing agricultural buildings to residential units. REL have not been presented with proposed development plans.

4. Operational Issues

Deleterious Materials

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 came into effect in April 2012. These repeal earlier asbestos legislation. Owners, occupiers, managers and/or those who have responsibilities for premises have a legal duty to either manage the risk of asbestos or a duty to co-operate with whoever manages that risk.

The responsible party has to identify the existence of Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs), record their location and condition, set out a plan to manage the risk from the material and take the necessary steps to put this plan into action.

An appropriately licensed asbestos contractor should remove asbestos material that is likely to be disturbed and cannot be easily protected. Reviews of this plan will have to be undertaken on an on-going basis. Details as to the location and condition of the materials must be provided to anyone who is liable to work on or disturb it.

Asbestos Survey

No survey has been presented for review as part of this assessment. Potential ACMs were identified on the roof of the central, larger barn denoted on Photograph 1,4 and 5 above and it is likely other such materials are present within the fabric of the buildings on site. As part of the redevelopment of the site, which will involve the conversion of the building or parts of the building, a refurbishment and demolition asbestos survey should be carried out and the information provided to the contractors undertaking the work.

Site Services

Specific details pertaining to the condition or capacity of the power, drainage and communication infrastructure serving has not be provided during the compilation of this report.

Above and Below Ground Tanks

Based on available information, there are no significant below ground fuel/oil storage tanks situated on site. On the western portion of the site a single diesel aboveground storage tank was identified which is understood to be utilised for current agricultural operations. No significant spillages or staining were noted on the concrete surrounds, in addition, the concrete

190520.R.001 – June 2019 7 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

was noted to be in good condition. Any spillages noted should be cleaned up as part of housekeeping measures in order to identify future spillages or leaks and prevent accidents.

Chemical Storage

No significant volumes/quantities of bulk chemicals are anticipated to have been stored or used on site or within the surrounding farm area.

Waste Management Practices

No environmentally significant quantities/types of waste are anticipated to be produced at the site or within the surrounding farm area.

Invasive Plants

The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) is the principal legislation which regulates the release of non-native species. Section 14(2) prohibits the release of certain invasive non- native plants into the wild in Great Britain; it is an offence under Section 14(2) to “plant or otherwise cause to grow in the wild” any plants listed on Part II of Schedule 9. The most common plant species found on brownfield and urban sites include Japanese Knotweed, Giant Hogweed and Himalayan Balsam.

Although we are not qualified to undertake ecological surveys, none of these plants are considered to be present on the site.

5. Historical Development

A review of historical maps obtained from Landmark (207430599_1_1) has been undertaken. A summary of relevant information, within 250m (i.e. in the planning consultation zone), is shown in chronological order in the table below with relevant maps in Appendix I . All distances listed below are approximate.

Prior to 2006, a water body was present within 100m north-east and prior to 2019, former ‘sheep pens’ were recorded as ‘livestock pens’. * Potentially contaminative land uses in bold italic

Potential for Historical Contamination

The historical assessment has identified that the site has comprised agricultural barns associated with High Baulk Farm from the earliest mapping dated 1861 up to present day, although the farm is under a different name on earlier maps. The surrounding area has also been identified to include similar undeveloped agricultural land, from 1861. No potentially significant contaminative land uses have been identified within the subject site.

6. Previous Reports

A request has been made for previous reports relating to the subject site. However, at the time of writing no reports were forthcoming. As a consequence, no previous reports were subject to review during the compilation of this report.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 9 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

7. Geological Setting

The geology beneath the site, summarised below, has been established from the British Geological Survey (BGS) 1: 50,000 scale Provisional Series, Geological Map, England and Wales, Sheet 14 (Morpeth), together with information from the BGS website.

Made Ground Published BGS data indicates an absence of significant recorded Made Ground materials mapped on or immediately adjacent to the subject site. Given the sites history it is unlikely that significant amounts of Made Ground are present at the site.

Drift Geology (Superficial Deposits) From a review of BGS information, the site is shown to be underlain by superficial drift deposits comprising Devensian Till of Diamicton (also known as Glacial Till).

Solid Geology (Bedrock) According to published BGS data records, the site is shown to be underlain by solid geology comprising the Stainmore Formation of cyclic repetitions of mudstones, siltstones and sandstones with thin limestone and occasional coal bands.

Borehole Logs

A review of the BGS borehole database has identified a number of boreholes within a 1km radius of the site. Of these boreholes, reference NZ07SW14483/1 (590m north) has been reviewed as part of this assessment due to it’s positioning within a similar geological sequence as presented within the BGS mapping detailed above. The borehole was progressed to a maximum depth of 4.20 metres below ground level (m bgl). The logs are detailed below, with copies included in Appendix II .

Borehole NZ07SW14483/1 Depth (m bgl) Description of Geology 0.00 to 0.10 Soil. 0.10 to 0.45 Compact stone hardcore. 0.45 to 1.40 Soft brown sandy clay with boulders. 1.40 to 2.75 Soft to firm gritty sandy clay with sandstone fragments and pieces of shale. 2.75 to 4.20 Fairly soft weathered sandy shale and sandstone (Hard at base). *Borehole progressed June 1989, no groundwater encountered.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 10 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

Coal Mining Risk Assessment

According to available information, the site is located in an area which may be affected by coal mining related activities. Therefore, a Coal Authority Coal Mining Report (reference: 51002130810005) was reviewed, the findings of which are presented below and in Appendix II :-

 The property is not within a surface area that could be affected by any past recorded underground coal mining;  The property is not within a surface area that could be affected by present underground mining;  The property is not in an area likely to be affected from any planned future underground coal mining. However, reserves of coal exist in the local area which could be worked at some time in the future;  There are no known coal mine entries within, or within 20 metres of, the boundary of the property;  The Coal Authority is not aware of any damage due to geological faults or other lines of weakness that have been affected by coal mining;  The property is not within the boundary of an opencast site from which coal has been removed by opencast methods;  The Coal Authority has not received a damage notice or claim for the subject property, or any property within 50m of the enquiry boundary, since 31 October 1994;  The Coal Authority has no record of a mine gas emission requiring action.

According to the Coal Authority Interactive Map Viewer data, the site is not located within a Development High Risk Area or recorded as being in an area of Past or Probable Shallow Coal Mine Workings.

Therefore, based on the information contained within the Coal Authority Coal Mining Report, REL can conclude that there is no significant risk from coal mining or coal mine related activities at the subject site.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 11 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

Stythe Ground Gas

The site is not located within a Development High Risk Area or an area of past or probable Shallow Coal Mine Workings.

In addition, according to the Coal Authority Coal Mining Report, there is no record of past shallow underground coal mining at the subject site. As such, given the information above, REL can conclude that there is not a plausible significant risk of shallow coal mining and therefore the potential for stythe gas generation beneath the subject site.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 12 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

8. Hydrogeology

Aquifer Status

According to information made available by the Environment Agency, the superficial drift deposits of Devensian Till are classified as a Secondary (Undifferentiated) Aquifer, which is assigned in cases where it has not been possible to attribute either category A or B to a rock type.

Solid geology, named as the Stainmore Formation, is classified as a Secondary (A) Aquifer, which comprise permeable layers capable of supporting water supplies at a local rather than strategic scale, and in some cases forming an important source of base flow to rivers. However, groundwater within coal measures are generally known to be of poor quality and not abstracted for public water supplies.

Groundwater Source Protection Zone

The subject site is not located within a Groundwater Source Protection Zone.

Groundwater Abstraction Licences

Based on information presented within the Envirocheck Report, there are no groundwater abstraction licences registered within 1km of the subject site.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 13 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

9. Hydrology

Surface Watercourses

The River Pont is located approximately 578m to the south-east of the site and is classified as a General Quality Assessment (GQA) River Quality B.

Culverted Watercourses

According the Envirocheck Report, there are no culverted watercourses present beneath the property. Should clarification on this point be required, it would be necessary to undertake an intrusive drainage survey to trace the location of the drainage infrastructure.

Surface Water Abstractions

Based on information presented within the Envirocheck Report, there are no surface water abstraction licences registered within 1km of the subject site.

Flood Risk

According to the Environment Agency database mapping, the site is situated within a Flood Zone 1, which is land not considered to be at risk from flooding and this land is assessed as having between a 1 in 100 and 1 in 1,000 annual probability of river flooding (1% – 0.1%), in any year.

Based on information contained within the Envirocheck Report, the site is not at risk from surface water flooding.

10. Environmental Sensitivity

The superficial drift deposits and solid geology underlying the site are classified as Secondary (Undifferentiated) and Secondary (A) Aquifers respectively. The subject site is not situated within a Groundwater Source Protection Zone, and there are no water abstraction licences recorded within 1km of the subject site. In addition, the site is situated within Flood Zone 1. As such, the site location is considered to be of Low environmental sensitivity.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 14 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

11. Regulatory Databases

From a review of the Envirocheck Report (207430599_1_1) presented in Appendix II , no significant regulatory database entries have been identified within a 250m radius of the subject site.

12. Regulatory Enquiries

Planning

A review of Northumberland County Council’s online Planning Portal has not identified any planning applications relating to the site.

Contaminated Land

It is the opinion of Roberts Environmental that there is an absence of significant source- pathway-receptor pollutant linkages and it is unlikely that the site would be investigated under Part 2A of the Contaminated Land Regime.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 16 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

13. Preliminary Conceptual Site Model

Potential Sources

No potentially significant sources of contamination have been identified associated with current or historical operations at the subject site. In addition, it is unlikely, given the site history that any significant amounts of Made Ground are present at the site.

Potential Pathways

Current

The site comprises agricultural buildings with areas of permeable surfacing across the property. As such, there is the potential for direct contact or inhalation / ingestion pathways to exist.

Mobile contaminants (if present) have the potential to migrate vertically and laterally to underlying groundwater and / or adjacent properties including residential occupants.

Ground gas and volatile vapours (where present) will vertically migrate through the current permeable surface and as such there is minimal risk for the current use of the property.

During Redevelopment

Ground workers could be exposed to contamination, if present, in soils and groundwater beneath the site via the direct contact or inhalation / ingestion pathways.

Intrusive works into the subsurface could displace potential ground gases and volatile vapours, opening lateral and vertical migration routes into service runs, adjacent areas and into foundation and service trenches.

Intrusive works into the subsurface could result in the mobilisation of contaminants (if present) into groundwaters and to the adjacent areas. However, no significant sources of soil or groundwater contamination have been recorded at the subject site.

Post Site Development

Direct contact or inhalation / ingestion pathways could exist where gardens / soft landscaped areas and / or permeable surfacing is proposed at the site.

Mobile contaminants (if present) may have the potential to migrate vertically and laterally via permeable strata to underlying and adjacent controlled waters.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 17 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

Mobile contaminants (if present) may have the potential to migrate laterally via permeable strata to nearby properties.

Where present, contamination may impact foundations and services installed on site via direct contact.

Ground gas and vapours (where present) may have the potential to impact receptors on and adjacent to the site via vertical and lateral migration through soil pores or discontinuities and ingress into proposed buildings on the site or buildings in adjacent areas.

Potential Receptors

The key receptors at the site have been identified as:

Current

 Potential site users, visitors and trespassers;  Groundwater;  Adjacent residential properties;  Planting within current soft landscaping areas.

During Site Development

 Construction / ground workers;  Proposed development;  Groundwater;  Adjacent residential properties;  Planting within proposed soft landscaping areas.

Post Site Development

 Future residents;  Future properties on site;  Future foundations and services at the site;  Adjacent residential properties;  Planting within future soft landscaped areas and gardens;  Groundwater.

190520.R.001 – June 2019 18 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

14. Environmental Risk Assessment

Regulatory Regime

In order to assess the risks associated with the presence of ground contamination, the linkages between the sources and potential receptors need to be established and evaluated. This is in accordance with Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act (EPA) 1990, which provides a statutory definition of Contaminated Land and as revised under The Contaminated Land (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2012. To fall within this definition it is necessary that, as a result of the condition of the land, substances may be present on or under the land such that:

 Significant harm is being caused or there is a significant possibility of such harm being caused; or

 Significant pollution of controlled waters is being caused, or there is a significant possibility of such pollution being caused;

 Risk from contamination is assessed by consideration of possible linkages between contaminant sources and potential receptors which could be harmed or polluted, and the potential pathways between them. A contaminant linkage must exist in relation to particular land before the land can be considered potentially to be contaminated land under Part 2A, including evidence of the actual presence of contaminants.

Risk Exposure

The risk of significant harm to human health or of pollution of controlled waters given the current and proposed future site uses has been assessed qualitatively as low, medium or high, see Appendix III . A risk estimation matrix for all pollutant linkages identified is shown on the following page.

15. Conclusions

The subject site currently forms a number of buildings and parcels of land associated with the adjacent farm. No potentially significant sources of contamination have been identified associated with the site’s current status. It is understood that the Client wishes to redevelop the site for a residential end usage. REL have not been presented with proposed development plans.

The historical assessment has identified that the site has comprised undeveloped agricultural land, part of High Baulk Farm from prior to 1861 to the present day. The surrounding area has also been identified to include similar undeveloped agricultural land, from prior to 1861, with ‘Leadgates’ (likely a residential dwelling) present on land 200m north-east of the site.

The site is positioned in an area which is underlain by superficial drift deposits comprising Devensian Till (Diamicton) deposits. Solid geology underlying the site comprise the Stainmore Formation.

Based on a review of available information including the Coal Authority report and BGS mapping, it is considered that the site is not at risk from shallow coal workings beneath or near the subject site.

Based on the information obtained during the desk study and the observations made during the walkover survey it is concluded that the environmental risk arising from the ground condition at the subject site is Low .

It is the opinion of Roberts Environmental Ltd that this report complies with guidance given in the National Planning Policy Framework and Paragraph 24 of PPS23 and in our view the issues identified should not preclude the future redevelopment . However, additional works are recommended.

16. Recommendations

As part of the proposed development, we recommend that the Client undertakes the following action:

 As part of the redevelopment of the site which will involve the disturbance or demolition of the building or parts of the building, a refurbishment and demolition asbestos survey should be carried out and the information provided to the contractors undertaking the work.  Future construction/ground workers shall be subject to a suitable and sufficient risk assessment and provided with and make use of appropriate PPE.

Definitions and Reservations used in this report are presented in Appendix III.

Statutory cover

Coal mining subsidence

In the unlikely event of any coal mining related subsidence damage, the Coal Authority or the mine operator has a duty to take remedial action in respect of subsidence caused by the withdrawal of support from land or property in connection with lawful coal mining operations.

When the works are the responsibility of the Coal Authority, our dedicated public safety and subsidence team will manage the claim. The house or land owner (“the owner”) is covered for these works under the terms of the Coal Mining Subsidence Act 1991 (as amended by the Coal Industry Act 1994). Please note, this Act does not apply where coal was worked or gotten by virtue of the grant of a gale in the Forest of Dean, or any other part of the Hundred of St. Briavels in the county of Gloucester.

The owner therefore shouldn’t incur cost or liability from repairs caused by the withdrawal of support from land and/or property in connection with lawful coal mining operations. Usually these actions will not need to involve your insurance company or mortgage lender.

Coal mining hazards

Our public safety and subsidence team provide a 24 hour a day, 7 days a week hazard reporting service, to help protect the public from hazards caused by past coal workings, such as a mine shaft or shallow working collapse. To report any hazards please call 01623 646 333. Further information can be found on our website: www.gov.uk/coalauthority.

Introduction

The Environment Act 1995 has made site sensitivity a key issue, as the legislation pays as much attention to the pathways by which contamination could spread, and to the vulnerable targets of contamination, as it does the potential sources of contamination. For this reason, Landmark's Site Sensitivity maps and Datasheet(s) place great emphasis on statutory data provided by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency; it also incorporates data from Natural England (and the Scottish and Welsh equivalents) and Local Authorities; and highlights hydrogeological features required by environmental and geotechnical consultants. It does not include any information concerning past uses of land. The datasheet is produced by querying the Landmark database to a distance defined by the client from a site boundary provided by the client. In this datasheet the National Grid References (NGRs) are rounded to the nearest 10m in accordance with Landmark's agreements with a number of Data Suppliers.

APPENDIX III DEFINITIONS AND RESERVATIONS

190520.R.001 – June 2019 26 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

For the avoidance of doubt, Roberts Environmental has prepared the following alphabetical list of definitions and reservations to aid the client in understanding the content of our advice and or written reports(s): Accuracy Level of agreement between true value and observed value. ACM’s Asbestos Containing Materials Conceptual Textual and or schematic hypothesis of the nature and sources of contamination, Exposure model potential migration pathways (including description of the ground and groundwater) and potential receptors, developed on the base of the information form the preliminary investigation and refined during subsequent phases of investigation and which is an essential part of the risk assessment process. Note 1: The conceptual exposure model is initially derived from the information obtained by the preliminary investigation. This conceptual model is used to focus subsequent investigations, where these are considered to be necessary, in order to meet the objectives of the investigations and the risk assessment. The results of the field investigation can provide additional data that can be used to further refine the conceptual model. Contamination Presence of a substance which is in, on or under land, and which has the potential to cause significant harm or to cause significant pollution of controlled water. Note 1: There is no assumption in this definition that harm results from the presence of the contamination. Note 2: Naturally enhanced concentrations of harmful substances can fall within this definition of contamination. Note 3: Contamination may relate to soils, groundwater or ground gas. Controlled water Inland freshwater (any lake, pond or watercourse above the freshwater limit), water contained in underground strata and any coastal water between the limit of highest tide or the freshwater line to the three mile limit of territorial waters. Note 1: See Section 104 of The Water Resources Act 1991. Enquiries Any enquiries undertaken by Roberts Environmental of local authorities and statutory undertakers are made verbally in respect of environmental issues. Local searches are not undertaken and no responsibility is accepted for any inaccurate information provided.

It is further assumed unless otherwise stated that all necessary licences, permits etc. Harm either run with the property or are transferable to a new occupier as appropriate. Adverse effect on the health of living organisms, or other interference with ecological systems of which they form part, and, in the case humans, including property. Hazard Inherently dangerous quality of a substance, procedure or event. Pathway Mechanism or route by which a contaminant comes into contact with, or otherwise affects, a receptor. Precision Level of agreement within a series of measurements of a parameter. Receptor Persons, living organisms, ecological systems, controlled water, atmosphere, structures and utilities that could be adversely affected by the contaminant(s). Risk Probability of the occurrence, magnitude and consequences of an unwanted adverse effect on a receptor. Risk assessment Process of establishing, to the extent possible, the existence, nature and significance of risk. Sampling Methods and techniques used to obtain a representative sample of the material under investigation. Soil Upper layer of the earth's crust composed of mineral parts, organic substance, water, air and living matter. Note 1: In accordance with BS 10175:2001 the term soil has the meaning ascribed to it through general use in civil engineering and includes topsoil and subsoil; deposits such as clays, silt, sand, gravel, cobbles, boulders and organic deposits such as peat; and material of natural or human origin (e.g. fills and deposited wastes). The term embraces

190520.R.001 – June 2019 27 Phase 1 Geo-Environmental Risk Assessment Mr Robson

all components of soil, including mineral matter, organic matter, soil gas and moisture, and living organisms.

Source Location from which contamination is, or was, derived. Note 1: This could be the location of the highest soil or groundwater concentration of the contaminant(s). Uncertainty Parameter, associated with the result of a measurement that characterizes the dispersion of the values that could reasonably be attributed to the measurement.

Risk Classification In line with current UK guidance, the Environmental Assessment has been undertaken using a risk based approach, with the potential environmental risk assessed qualitatively using the ‘source-pathway- receptor’ scenario. In consideration of the information gathered an overall risk rating has been provided for the site based on the following definitions:

Low Risk The site is considered suitable for present use and environmental setting. It is unlikely that any issues will arise as a liability/cost for the freehold owner of the site.

Medium Risk The site may not be suitable for present use and environmental setting. Contaminants are probably or certainly present and are likely to have an unacceptable impact on the identified receptors. It is possible that the issue(s) could arise as a liability/cost for the freehold owner of the site. Further work is usually required to clarify the risk.

High Risk The site is not suitable for present use and environmental setting. Contaminants are probably or certainly present and are very likely to have an unacceptable impact on the identified receptors. It is likely that the issue(s) will arise as a liability/cost for the freehold owner of the site. Further work is urgently needed.
