- +Teesworks for all of the preparation of the ground and during construction of the South Bank Quay was an upper tier COMAH site mainly due to the materials left behind from over a century of coke manufacture, resulting in a large legacy of 1000s of tonnes of coal tar derived materials being left on the South Bank site alone.  The COMAH citation ([[Teesworks - COMAH Status]]) while being primarily concerned with human safety, also stresses the severe hazards that these materials present to the aquatic environment.
