The importance of redeveloping contaminated land can not be underestimated. With the increasing demand for land, it is impossible to satisfy the needs of the many people looking to develop their own piece of land. This has also meant that more landfills are being required to store all of the waste generated by all of the new developments taking place. The contaminated land is often considered unusable and this limits the ability to develop on it.
When land becomes contaminated with hazardous material or other harmful chemicals, people’s health can suffer. People who become ill in the area because of contaminated land could start legal action against the owners of the land. It can be very costly to litigate in these situations. In many cases, families whose homes have been contaminated choose to leave the area as they cannot safely live there. There is also a risk when staying in an affected area because of traces of radiation or other dangerous chemicals that can remain in the soil affecting the area for generations to come.
