Timber and Soil Analysis |Location: Crocodan Farm, Cornwall
||Client: Mann Forestry |Date: June 2005 - Establish potential
contaminants arising from agricultural chemical residues. How
Aardvark Delivered: - Aardvark were instructed to undertake a
contamination assessment of agricultural waste deposited in a
saddle stone barn at Crocodon Farm, St. Mary’s, Cornwall - Due
to a substandard waste management policy of the previous
remains, a number of agricultural pesticides had been stored in
a barn which in turn had leaked and caused deteriorations of the
building structure - The building lies adjacent to agricultural
land; there was the potential for a pathway from the contaminant
to the cropped area - Aardvark undertook a source pathway
receptor analysis of the site and potential contaminants and
advice was given on remediation strategies.
