Index to Waste Disposal Site Records

Oracle index to records of some 3500 waste sites in England and Wales identified by BGS as part of a survey carried out on behalf of the Departement of the Environment in 1973. The index has been corrected and updated to a limited extent, but the data itself has not been changed. The data was collected in 1972 and the information reflects the knowledge at that time. It does not reflect current interpretation. Not all authorities made returns and there are not records for all of the sites listed. However, the data is an invaluable source of information about pre-1974 sites. Information includes site name, location and risks to aquifers. It should be noted that the assessments were carried out when the data was collected and may not reflect current interpretation.

本数据集为英国和威尔士境内3500个由英国地质调查局（BGS）在1973年受环境部委托进行的调查中识别的废弃物场地记录的Oracle索引。该索引已进行了修正并有限度地进行了更新，但数据本身并未发生变化。数据收集于1972年，反映的是当时的知识水平。它并不反映当前的解读。并非所有当局均提交了报告，且并非所有列出的场地均有记录。然而，这些数据是关于1974年以前场地的宝贵信息来源。信息包括场地名称、位置以及对含水层的风险。需要注意的是，评估是在数据收集时进行的，可能并不反映当前的解读。
