Nottinghamshire and Nottingham Draft Waste Local Plan January 2022

Representation ID: 789

Received: 04/04/2022

Respondent: Mick George Ltd

Representation Summary:

SP2
We support Strategic Policy SP1: Waste Prevention and Re‐use. We generally support Strategic Policy SP2 but as set out above, we do not consider that the assessment of disposal capacity for inert wastes has been assessed realistically. Although we accept that consideration of further capacity rests on a need to demonstrate the extent to which residual waste that cannot be recycled
or recovered (part c) we consider that careful attention should be paid to the limitations of inert waste recovery sites as set out above.

Representation on behalf of Mick George Ltd to the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Draft Waste Local Plan.
See Representations.

These representations are submitted by Mick George Ltd (MGL), which is one of the largest waste
and aggregates companies in the East of England and in the East Midlands. This representation is
designed to support the promotion of Dorket Head as an inert landfill site and to make more general
comments about the strategy proposed to be adopted in the Waste Local Plan. The company has
been unable to participate in the local Plan process before now as it has only recently acquired the
rights to develop the site.
