In the soil remediation plan you describe exactly how you plan to carry out the remediation. You may also need to conduct a soil survey and submit the result of this survey. You can start the remediation only when the provincial authority agrees to your remediation plan.

After that, you have to report to the province if:

  • you start the remediation
  • there is a change in the remediation work
  • you have finished the work

After the remediation you have to submit a remediation report (evaluation report).

Follow-up plan for residual contamination
