Landfill and remediation
Former landfills carry long-term liabilities and few owners know what can be done with them. We have discharged 167 planning conditions on a former landfill to allow a 120,000 tonnes a year recycling centre to proceed.
What decides these sites
- Cap condition and settlement
- Landfill gas and leachate
- Permit status and surrender conditions
- Proximity to housing
- End uses the cap can support
How we approach them
We plan remediation and end use together, so that solar, industrial or amenity value pays for the work the site needs.
