Short description and topics:
There are potentially millions of sites in the EU where land contamination could pose a risk to water 
resources, ecosystems, and/or human health. As a result over € 2,000 million is believed to be spent
annually on site characterisation, risk management and remediation. Stakeholders are facing
new challenges: the discovery of new sites or new types of pollution and an increased demand for land
that is suitable for use. Without cost-effective and sustainable management of the land the environmental
impact and the cost will only increase further. This paper proposes concrete actions to help turn
this trend around, supporting both the European economy as well as common European efforts towards
a better environment.
