Now freely available from the CL:AIRE Library and just in time for your summer reading, is the updated guidance to the SuRF-UK Framework.
Since their publication, the Framework indicators and supporting guidance have been used widely both in the UK and internationally, and with the benefits of nearly ten years’ experience implementing the Framework, the SuRF-UK Steering Group considered it was timely to review and refine the “Annex 1” indicator guidance, as well as more clearly describe the process of indicator selection and how it fits into sustainable remediation assessments.
As a result of the review, SuRF-UK has now created two supplementary reports that support the SuRF-UK Framework and replace the 2011 Annex 1, which is now withdrawn.
A free webinar on the new SuRF-UK indicator reports was given last month by Paul Bardos.
