Restoring Acid Tar Lagoons 330 $aSustainable Brownfield Regeneration presents a comprehensive account of UK policies, processes and practices in brownfield regeneration and takes an integrated and theoretically-grounded approach to highlight best practice.Brownfield regeneration has become a major policy driver in developed countries. It is estimated that there are 64,000 hectares of brownfield land in England, much of which presents severe environmental challenges and lies alongside some of the most deprived communities in the country. Bringing such land back into active use has taken on a new urgency among policymak 606 $aSoil remediation 606 $aBrownfields 606 $aReclamation of land 606 $aSustainable buildings 606 $aBuilding sites 615 0$aSoil remediation. 615 0$aBrownfields. 615 0$aReclamation of land. 615 0$aSustainable buildings. 615 0$aBuilding sites. 676 $a333.77/137 701 $aDixon$b Timothy J.$f1958-$0856888 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996218602603316 996 $aSustainable brownfield regeneration$92091894 997 $aUNISA
