Preliminary site assessment is an investigation of land to determine the risk of water contamination. This investigation is mainly done to get rid of pollution like chemical substance that is mostly present on or below the earth surface. The chemical industries produce this chemical substance in the form of residue, and that is mainly mixed up with the soil and water.
