Within the remit of reducing world hunger FAO has been extensively involved with pests and pesticides management. Based on the experience gained over the past 20 years FAO has developed a series of tools which allow a risk based approach to dealing with obsolete pesticide stocks considering the potential impact on both public health and the wider environment. This has led to the development and publication of the Environmental Management Tool Kit Series. The methodologies presented in these tools have been developed to provide a sound technical baseline for implementation of pesticide inventory, obsolete stock site prioritization and safeguarding projects in developing and developed countries in many regions across the globe. They have a solid foundation in international regulations from the US and Europe and so can be considered as complying with international best practice for worker and environmental safety. Despite the implementation of projects resulting in the removal of the above ground stocks, pesticide legacy problems persist that affect the ground beneath the sites and the groundwater passing through it. In many cases the grounds at these sites present a greater risk to human health and the wider environment than the original pesticide stockpiles which are often sent for environmentally sound disposal. To assess the particular risks posed by pesticide contaminated land, FAO has developed a fifth tool in the EMTK series, the EMTK 5. The conclusions drawn from using EMTK5 enable the development of a national contaminated land risk management plan and site level risk reduction strategies which

Environmental Management Tool Kit Volume 6 is intended to provide practical methods to assist countries in the formulation of strategies for the management of pesticide contaminated land. As risk reduction largely depends on the accuracy of site investigation and associated risk assessment this document is meant to be used in close conjunction with EMTK Volume 5, the outputs of which are critical in the design of pesticide contaminated land environmental management plans. The previous volumes of the FAO EMTK series (Volumes 1- 4) are designed to assist countries with the risk management of obsolete pesticide stocks. From a wider perspective the approaches used to deal with obsolete stocks and contaminated land are similar. For both contaminated land and obsolete stocks the first step requires a preliminary risk assessment to prioritize sites in terms of urgency for risk management and to estimate the absolute risk. Due to the nature of contaminated land, an additional series of assessment steps (further described by EMTK5) are required to understand what is going on below ground and how this affects risk, that are not required for obsolete stocks, the risks for which can largely be understood from a single visit to each site. Where the risk management of obsolete stocks and contaminated land differ is in the number and types of disposal options and risk reduction techniques required. As risk management of contaminated land requires dealing with larger sources, usually at lower concentrations, and the escape of and exposure to contaminants in many different ways.
