A Questionnaire Survey on Contaminated Site Regulators’ View of Implementing Green and Sustainable Remediation in China
Government contaminated site regulators, as policy executors and makers, have a profound impact on the development of green and sustainable remediation (GSR), but their cognitive level of GSR has not been well-studied. China has some experience in the management of contaminated sites and has the fou...
