Welcome to CAT-WASTE^SOIL

Atkins, working in partnership with the McArdle group has developed the Waste Soils Characterisation Assessment Tool, CAT-WASTE^SOIL. Following current regulations and guidance, this on-line tool provides developers of brownfield and contaminated sites and their advisors with a quick, easy to use web-based facility that allows rapid assessment of contaminated soils, and their classification as either hazardous or non-hazardous waste. The waste categorisation of contaminated soils can be a time consuming and difficult procedure, often requiring intimate knowledge of the behaviour of individual chemical compounds. The CAT-WASTE^SOIL system will provide you with rapid waste characterisation of a contaminated soil, and will help you to choose the right treatment or disposal option.

The Environment Agency have released a new version of WM2 (version 2.2). With respect to H14 (ecotoxic) CAT-WASTE^SOIL follows the revisions made within the revised guidance.

During the recent maintenance, a new version of the Input Sheet has been issued, click here to download version 5. Should you require previously uploaded samples to be re-processed, we strongly recommend that these be re-imported under the new version of the Input Sheet.
