NQMS for Land Contamination Management
The National Quality Mark Scheme for Land Contamination Management (NQMS) is developed by the National Brownfield Forum to provide visible identification of documents that have been checked for quality.

The Earthbanks initiative will establish a professional network, with members from the construction, agricultural, conservation, and public sectors. 

Organisations may wish to get involved in the active work of the initiative and the team would be delighted to hear from you.
