The Waste Data Interrogater is a tool provided by the EA under an Open Government Conditional Licence i.e. there are certain conditions that must be followed if you want to use the data.

It is the primary means by which the Environment Agency collect and store all of the submitted statutory data that operators of regulated facilities i.e. those with Environmental Permits must collate and return to the EA on a quarterly basis in accordance with the standard Conditions of their Permit. This includes the waste both received in to and removed from their sites.[1]

The EA Waste Data Interrogator tool collates data on the amount of waste received and removed from the following types of sites [1]:

  • landfill sites
  • waste transfer sites
  • waste treatment sites
  • energy from waste facilities
  • metal recycling sites
  • sites for disposal in or on land
  • sites with 'use of waste' permits - construction, reclamatioj and timber manufacturing.

The EA Waste Data Interrogater record includes four downloads:

  • waste data interrogater tool

  • waste incinerator returns

The latest available data is from calender year 2018. The 2019 data will be published at some point during early autumn 2020.
