PRICE INCLUDES FREE COPIES OF CONTAMINATION, POLLUTION & THE PLANNING PROCESS - worth £75 when published.
About the seminar
The ongoing, confusing implementation of the Environment Act and continued publicity around environmental issues have pushed the issue of the environment up the planning agenda over the last five years.
So, as a planner, developer or advisor you need to know the latest law, policy and practice so your projects don't fall foul of the increasingly complex and diverse regulations affecting planning decisions. Our expert panel will:
- highlight the latest guidance and policy thinking on planning and the environment
- update you on the progress of the Environment Act
- provide an overview around contamination, pollution and the planning process
- introduce the new Biodiversity 4 metric
As ever there will also be a lively panel session where you can ask your own questions which, together with the free book offer, makes the event essential for all developers, their advisors and planners.
