These two lists are taken from Planning Application Ref: S/2308/06/O
See www.scambs.gov.uk/bayersite.
ATKINS: Remediation of Former Bayer Site Hauxton – Remediation Strategy Summary for
Planning: prepared for Bridgemere UK Limited and Harrow Estates Plc November 2006,
page 5.
The following specific contaminants of concern have been identified in the significant pollutant
linkages as requiring remediation. In addition a larger number of substances listed as groups could
potentially require remediation in order to mitigate the actual or potential risk to site receptors (both
human health and controlled waters).
TBA
MCPA
Mecoprop
Dicamba
Atrazine
Simazine
Ethofumesate
BTEX
Organophosphorus compounds
Non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs)
Asbestos
Trietazine
Toluene
Xylene
Phenol
Benazolin-ethyl
Benfuresate
Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs)
Metals including copper, chromium,
nickel
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs)
Substances which possess carcinogenic,
mutogenic or teratogenic properties
Hydrocarbons (VOC’s and SVOC’s)
These contaminants are identified in the CSM report (Refd. 3) and will be the primary focus of the
remediation activities, as with most remedial technologies or systems it may be the case_that other
substances in addition to those listed above above are removed or mitigated by the selected
remedial strategy.
