Brownfield regeneration
Series: The College of Estate Management Press Release ; November 2004 (4)Publication details: 2004Subject(s): Summary: New research from The College of Estate Management shows that UK developers are coming to terms with brownfield redevelopment, but that the EU Landfill Directive could deter developments on contaminated sites. Commercial developers have a long history of developing on brownfield sites, but housebuilding on recycled land is no longer the preserve of specialists. However, over two-fifths of housebuilders were likely to be discouraged from undertaking development on sites with contamination following the implementation of the Directive (which banned the co-disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste resulting in a radically reduced number of sites permitted to accept hazardous waste.).
