Civil liabilities, for example when contamination migrates from one site to another, threatening to harm land, buildings, personal property, businesses (revenues and profits) and people;
Clean-up liabilities, e.g. the Environment Agency can enforce the landowner to render the site safe and this could involve hundreds of thousands of pounds per acre in addition to legal and technical costs;
Criminal liabilities, e.g. directors and officers can be fined, or even imprisoned, for contravening UK environmental law by breaching a Statutory Notice requiring a site to be remediated; and/or
Associated legal and technical costs, e.g. professional costs either to bring or defend a legal action if all or any of the above liabilities are incurred.
