                  If any contamination has been remediated on the land, describe the remediation in detail in a validation report (the
                  validation report may be submitted with a site investigation report so that the combined reports cover the matters detailed      Not applicable
                  in the previous subsections of this section of Module 6).
                  The validation report must describe the remedial approach that was adopted (the approach should be developed in
                  accordance with the National Remediation Framework, which was developed to complement the contaminated land                      Not applicable
                  NEPM).
                  The validation report must describe the remedial strategy, how the validation criteria were developed, and explain why the
                                                                                                                                                   Not applicable
                  criteria were considered appropriate for the site’s particular circumstances.
                  The validation report must describe the contamination levels recorded on the land before and after the work was carried
                  out; and compare the contamination levels to the remediation objectives and validation criteria that were used to evaluate       Not applicable
                  the effectiveness of the remediation.
                  The report must describe how the residual contamination levels were validated and demonstrate that the methods were
                  appropriate and statistically robust. Also, the validation report must assess any residual risks to human health and all         Not applicable
                  environmental values as a result of the remediated state of the land.
                  Where appropriate, the validation report should include a copy of the remediation action plan that was developed for the
                  remedial activities and the remedial options assessment that was carried out prior to remediation. The ROA should include        Not applicable
                  an analysis of the options that were available for remediating the land and explain why the preferred option was chosen.
