THEP’s Property Development Program (PDP) works with property owners and developers to address Metal Contaminated Soils during the redevelopment or new development of commercial, industrial, or residential property within THEP’s Soil Management Area.

The objectives of the PDP are to:

• Manage metal contaminated soils during the development or re-development of properties within the Soil Management Area;
• Prevent unnecessary costs, delay, or stigma to development in the Trail area due to the presence of metal contaminated soils;
• Support sustainable development in the Trail area by assisting with the investigation and risk-based management of metal contaminated soils; and
• Facilitate safe excavation, handle and dispose of excavated metal contaminated soils through testing, and risk management.
