As the land along much of the preferred onshore cable corridor is agricultural, there is the potential for both diffuse and point sources of pollution to be present.
Within the built-up areas along the preferred onshore cable corridor, there is the potential for historical contamination to be present from railways and highways, in-filled quarries and sand and brick pits.
Known landfill sites are shown on Figure 20.1.3 and are listed in Table 3 below. Table 3: Known landfill sites
