Application number
EPR/WE1623AB/V003

The activities on site are physical treatment of inert and non hazardous wastes. The site currently operates as a waste site producing soils and aggregates under a standard rules permit. As the rulesets have changed and this site can no loger meet the ruleset due to being close to a local nature reserve and and area covered by a biodiversity action plan the site is seeking a bespoke permit to complete the same activities in the same area, which includes the sorting, crushing and blending of wastes to produce soils and aggregates as a dry process.
