Building for 2012 and beyond, the theme this year for CIRIA's annual contaminated land conference, will review how government contaminated land policy has affected house building and the property industry, the lessons learnt from Part IIA regimes, and current practice in risk management and risk communication.

It will also provide a forum to debate issues including risk assessment, ways to deal with sites with special contaminants (for example those hazard ground gases present), hazards and remediation strategies for sites that are designated for green spaces and parks.
