Pre- Submission Draft Waste Local Plan

Representation ID: 920

Received: 08/10/2023

Respondent: Susan Edwards

Representation Summary:

I fully support this objective but the granting of planning permission for the EMERGE incinerator at Ratcliffe on Soar does not follow these guidelines. What are the very special circumstances that led to this facility, that is due to process 525,000tpa of waste, being granted planning permission in the green belt? As the local waste plan has estimated only 180,494tpa deficiency in capacity in 2038 how can a 525,000tpa facility be justified especially as a further 340,000tpa of EfW capacity is already planned elsewhere in Nottinghamshire?
