Beddington Farmlands Landfill Site: Difference between revisions

Line 10:

The previous use of the site was as a sewage farm associated with the adjoining sewage treatment plant. Sewage farms comprise areas of land used to process and treat sewage sludge to manufacture a soil fertiliser product. They were more commonly used in the 19th and early 20th century than they are nowadays.

Planning permission for mineral extraction and restoration by landfilling was granted in 1995 on appeal (N/93/37646), site operations commenced in 1998. This planning permission envisaged completion of landfilling by 2015 and site restoration within 18 months of that. Subsequently, in 2005 an application was made that sought to extend the life of the landfill operations at the site until 2023. The total area of the site covered by the original applications is 92 hectares.

The Waste Management Licence was changed to an Environmental Permit in 2003/4 as required by the changing legislation at the time.
