Contaminated Land Management Act 1997

Without limiting section 96B, an authorised officer may enter—

any land on which the authorised officer reasonably suspects that any activity that may cause contamination is being carried on—at any time during which the activity is being carried on there, and

any land at or from which the authorised officer reasonably suspects contamination has been, is being or is likely to be caused—at any time, and

any significantly contaminated land—at any time.

Chapter 7 (Investigation) of the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 applies to the exercise of functions by an authorised officer under this section in the same way as it applies to the exercise of other powers to enter premises under that Chapter.
