Contamination of Derwent Forest; Ecological Survey of Derwent Forest; Timeframe for Clean Up of Derwent Forest

M A Khan made this Freedom of Information request to Cumbria County Council

The request was successful.

From: M A Khan

28 August 2010

Dear Cumbria County Council,

I am writing with respect to the Derwent Forest Site. I recently
came across the following press release:
http://www.cumbria.gov.uk/news/2009/june...

I am concerned to hear that the site contains significant ground
contamination, asbestos cement and spoil heaps. In addition, the
site also contains running water in the form of streams.

I wonder if there is a site map detailing the contamination and the
location of such contamination that concerned members of the public
may have access to. It is not enough simply to say that the site is
contaminated, as I wish to verify for myself the sources and
locations, what they are and whether they present a danger to
anyone (e.g. polluted watercourses, airborne asbestos, etc).

I wonder if it is also possible to get some form of timeframe for
when the asbestos cement will be removed (and any other
decontamination) as well as the results of the ecological survey.

Yours faithfully,

M A Khan
