Co-Op Pharmaceuticals, Meir Park, Stoke on Trent

This 3.8 hectare site lies in Environment Agency (EA) Source Protection Zone 1 adjacent to a groundwater abstraction point. Accordingly, the EA adopted a highly stringent approach to the potential for soil / water contamination at the site. Integra undertook negotiation with the EA following a series of sophisticated environmental numerical analyses. As a result, remedial treatment of site groundwater was totally avoided and remediation of site soils was limited to localised removal of heavily impacted hydrocarbon contaminated soils associated with leakage from a previous underground diesel storage tank.
