Soil and groundwater baseline or final report
Assessing soil and groundwater conditions requires a connection between results, substances, processes and installation history. We prepare baseline or final reports that organise the available evidence and describe environmental conditions within boundaries appropriate to the purpose of the assessment.
Document site conditions at the relevant stage of the installation's life
We first establish the report purpose, installation boundaries and substances relevant to the assessment. Information on material use, storage and movement is reviewed alongside available soil and groundwater data. The history of the site helps identify locations needing attention and determine whether existing investigations address the questions the report is intended to resolve.
Operational records are brought together with investigation results and their locations. We examine comparability of methods, depths and analytical scopes, identifying where further investigation may be needed. For a final report, an important task is relating the assessed condition to the appropriate baseline documentation while accounting for differences in the evidence and actual changes in installation use.
The report explains the basis and limits of the assessment; an individual result does not automatically characterise the entire property. Field and laboratory work is organised with suitable partners within an agreed scope. The report documents environmental conditions, while any remediation strategy or physical works require a separate scope based on the findings.

What you receive
You receive a baseline or final report describing the installation, evidence used and environmental condition within the defined scope. It explains the investigation basis and, where appropriate, comparison with reference documentation. Information gaps affecting interpretation are identified so subsequent decisions about the site can be based on clearly stated findings.
