Minerals and Waste Specific Site Allocations

At the County Council Cabinet Meeting on Monday April 4th 2011 the Cabinet will consider the conclusions on the future minerals and waste sites for the county.

In the Clavering Division there are some changed conclusions which readers may be interested in.

These are:-

1.  MIN 7 & WAS 27 (Earsham). This site was previously concluded as being acceptable. However, on a further review, it is now concluded that landscape, amenity and geodiversity are such that the site should not be allocated.

2.  WAS 35 ( Aldeby and Burgh St Peter).  This site, the current landfill, was previously regarded as acceptable only for composting on a temporary basis. However, due to the short remaining lifetime of the landfill (filling must end in 2012), it is now concluded that the site should not be allocated for any waste uses.

3.  WAS 28 (Haddiscoe). This site is also proposed for Mineral Extraction ( MIN 25); and this is still being promoted by a developer, (notwithstanding that it remains unacceptable for allocation on a range of grounds). The potential waste uses (inert waste recycling and inert landfill) have now been withdrawn from consideration by the site promoter.

All of the other sites in the Clavering Division remain unchanged since 2009.
