How much clean-up is enough in a world where contamination levels continue to rise? A reflection on the practicability of groundwater clean-up

As contaminated land challenges continue to evolve, practitioners are increasingly confronted with the complexity of emerging contaminants like PFAS, shifting definitions of background or ambient conditions, and the implications of retrospectivity for sites once deemed compliant.

This technical webinar unpacks the critical elements of Victoria’s Clean Up So Far As Reasonably Practicable (CUSFARP) framework, using real-world examples and case insights. It provides a practical overview of the steps required to meet CUSFARP, the role of environmental auditors, and what it takes to demonstrate compliance in the face of uncertainty, legacy decisions, and tightening expectations
