| 211. | The nature of the occupational activities set out in Annex III can be of assistance in understanding the circumstances in which land contamination can arise. By way of a non-exhaustive set of examples, the activities indicate that contamination can arise during mining or extraction, processing or manufacture, livestock production, pesticide use, transport of waste and chemicals, and the treatment of waste. The contamination may arise after an occupational activity has moved beyond an economic or active phase and entered a phase of after-care. For example, the regulatory requirements attaching to the management of landfills and mining waste facilities extend to post-closure conditions.
