Contaminated land

We are responsible for identifying and managing land that may be contaminated due to past or present industrial use, waste disposal, or other environmental factors.

What we do

  • maintain a register of contaminated land
  • regularly inspect and assess land across the borough
  • take remediation action where contamination is confirmed

Our work helps protect public health, the environment, and supports safe development across Hartlepool.
