Remediation is work intended to address contamination or an environmental impact under a defined plan or regulatory framework. It may include removal, treatment, containment, or other measures. The appropriate approach depends on contaminants, site conditions, intended use, and regulator requirements. Qualified professionals document objectives, verification methods, and limits of the work.
Why it matters for owners
Remediation can involve specialist subcontractors, permits, monitoring, and long-term obligations. Contracts should define completion evidence and responsibilities.
