As a result of this, pollution becomes a very sensitive factor that needs to be considered when developing property in Sydney. Other historic uses of land include industrial activities such as manufacturing firms, petrol stations, dry cleaning facilities, and other businesses that discharge toxic substances into the soil and water table. These contaminants can cause harm to the ecosystem and people’s health and are also a legal nugatory for owners of the properties.

Before embarking on any large construction project, buying land or structures, or even restructuring a piece of land in Sydney, it is always advisable to undertake a professional Contamination Assessment Sydney. The former identifies and evaluates the possible risks of contamination by analyzing the prior and present usage of the property, which is also called a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment. If a potential area of concern is identified, then Phase 2 entails collecting samples of the soil, water and air to test for hazardous substances at approved environmental laboratories.
