- A Comprehensive Site Survey: using radio detection equipment to trace all underground services both in use and redundant.
- A Comprehensive Historical Investigation: into previous site usages comparing these with any existing and current utility drawings of all services.
- An Evaluation of Redundant Services: including all disused underground services that are no longer needed and require safe removal from the site.
- An Evaluation of Redundant Plant: clearly identifying aboveground plant no longer required (e.g. switchgear, generators, tanks etc.).
