(11) Human health
Human health should be a primary concern when assessing land use and exposure scenarios. There should be appropriate occupational health and safety measures (including training) for personnel involved in assessment of site contamination. Community health assessment and monitoring for specific health effects may be warranted where appraisal has indicated a significant risk of exposure to contamination.
