I presume therefore that you would defend the use of RBCA as part of a Part IIa determination???
I have asked you this question because there are large differences in opinion in the use of proprietary non UK based software by LA's. Some
accpet RBCA/BP Risc some dont. Due to the "short-comings" of the existing CLEA model and the recuctance by some LA's to accept RBCA
assessments we have recently actually coded up the CLR guidance algorithms for the derivation of soil guidance values.
I agree that RBCA and all other software is only a tool for aiding in the decision making process. But my point was that you are advocating a USA
based tool for making decisions in the UK where the guidance and legislative environment is very much different.
