1. Revitalization of Megasites A challenging legacy
Contamination: The occurrence of a certain substances in the environment due to anthropogenic activities, such as industrial production, waste disposal, mining, military or agriculture. Contamination can be diffuse distributed or appear locally.
The public has to take over liabilities in case the polluter can no longer be held responsible or even be identified.

1. Revitalization of Megasites Megasites in Europe
Conservative Estimates:• 20.000 Megasites
in Europe• in 100 years
this problem will still exist
• Remediation costs: > 100 Billion €
What makes a megasite _
a megasite?
Multiple sources Multiple plumes Multiple remediation options Multiple cost-functions and values Multiple stakeholder interests Multiple supra-regional impacts

1. Revitalization of Megasites The need for re-development
Improvement of a community’s long-term quality of life Protection of ecosystem functions and human healthSoil is increasingly seen as a scarce, non-renewable resource. EC 2011 Roadmap: reduce land consumption to zero by 2050Investing in Megasites increases local tax bases, facilitates job growth, utilizes existing infrastructure, takes development pressures off of undeveloped, open landBut: There is no general solution to be applied – revitalizationof Megasites needs an integrated approach

2. timbre projectObjectives
Collect, evaluate, classify relevant information
Consolidate and improve “in-situ” or “on-site” technologies
Identify decision structures within local cultures
Develop tools for prioritisation and planning
Develop a information platform
Development of a system for collection, analysis and classification of accessible information on brownfields regeneration

3. Work Packages: WP1Expert system information platform
Lisa Pizzol, Ph.D. | University Ca' Foscari of Venice | lisa.pizzol@unive.it
1) EU-wide inventory of
information for brownfields
redevelopment
2) Implementation of the TIMBRE web database
3) Evaluation and ranking of the collected
information
4) Identification of methodological and technological gaps
5) Development of the TIMBRE web based expert system
Tasks

3. Work Packages: WP2Cultural and decision structures
Understanding local specificities, possible barriers and unused potential in fostering tailored brownfield revitalizationGathering the points of view of different stakeholders with variable interests in brownfield regeneration
Encouraging continuous stakeholder dialogue to understand changing needs,priorities and interests

3. Work Packages: WP3Success metrics and prioritisation
Analytical: Success metricscollecting databases,questionnaire surveys, stakeholders per-spective, successful project trajectoriesframework of indicators, spatial analysis and classification, determinants of success
Application: Prioritization toolweb based databases & mapsbest practice strategies

3. Work Packages: WP4Characterisation and remediation
Testing the feasibility and potential of phytoremediationFeasibility testing: specific soil washing with recycled foams Novel strategies for effective site characterisation & monitoring of subsurface contamination & remediation:
a) tree core samplingb) direct push/shallow soil probing
applied adaptively, assisted by numerical modelling; with aims to test feasibility, limitations, effectivenessWhich measures may be successful and appropriate at a site?
