Abstract:
CLARINET, the Contaminated Land Rehabilitation Network for Environmental Technologies in Europe was a Concerted Action of the European Commission's Environment and Climate Research and Development Programme. The project ran from 1998 to 2002. Its primary objectives were to develop technical recommendations for sound decision making on the rehabilitation of contaminated sites in Europe and to identify research and development needs, in particular in relation to the EC Fifth Framework Programme (FW5). CLARINET's findings represent a consensus between experts from 16 European countries and present a philosophical framework for contaminated land management, Risk Based Land Management, and a series of findings related to the specific interests of its seven working groups. These were: brownfields and redevelopment of urban areas; decision support; groundwater and surface water protection; research programmes and collaboration in Europe; ecological requirements for land reuse; human health effects; and remediation technologies.Keywords: brownfields; CLARINET; contaminated land risk assessment; remediation; risk management
