Output – Contaminated Sites

The objective of this appropriation is to:

  • facilitate the letting of contracts by competitive tender for the investigation and analysis of possible contamination on former Crown-owned land (now in private ownership) and Crown land held by LINZ, and
  • ensure identified areas of contamination that the Crown has accepted responsibility for are further investigated and appropriate remedial action is taken.

The Crown carries out analysis and investigations for possible contamination on a reactive basis. Where the Crown has accepted responsibility for a contaminated site, contracts will be let by competitive tender to undertake either further investigation or the appropriate remedial action.
