Well done Darren that is a respectable BVPI, we will be lucky to hit 2%
despite sorting out 40+ sites via the various mechanisms available -
good old stats.
Next year we are hoping for a similar number, but do not have any
predictions on Planning outcomes yet - strange that.

Subject: BVPI for contaminated land
I have produced our BVPI for contaminated land and concern has been
raised by management as it is quite low (3.3% approx). I would be
interested to know what other LAs have been achieving for their BVPIs?
Our BVPI was calculated as follows:
1. I used a baseline figure from April 05. 1003 2. Then calculated the
number of sites where there is sufficient information to decide whether
remediation is or is not necessary from planning and Part IIA routes.
3. Then 33/1003 = 3.3%
One problem that I have encountered is that we have been made aware of
more than 33 potentially contaminated sites that were previously not on
our Part IIA list (through planning and complaints). This meaning that
the BVPI for number of sites of potential concern for next year will
increase. So our other BVPI for next year, if we deal with a similar
number of sites will drop slightly (3.1% I guess). Have any other Local
Authorities experienced a similar situation?
Also I was wondering how the BVPIs will be assessed as there are no
targets. I seem to recall that the first BVPI should decrease and the
second increase thus illustrating that the LA is reducing the amount of
potentially contaminated sites in its district. Is this correct?
Many thanks for all of your advice with my previous query on placing
determinations on a public register.
