Unit 42 - Project Management

Introduction

Grant of planning permission has been recommended by Gloucestershire Country Council. The council has approved for a waste incinerator of a controversial £ 500m scheme. A draft permit by the Environment Agency has already been given by the incinerator at Javelin Park near Haresfield. Before the new facility can be built, a full environmental permit and planning permission will be required by it. In the planning meeting of twenty first March, the recommendations for the scheme will be presented. To build a waste incinerator on a site near junction twelve of the M5, a twenty five year contract has already been signed by the Gloucestershire County Council with Urbaser Balfour Beatty.

More than one thousand people from opposition have been attracted by the plans to build the incinerator. Potential health, environmental, cost, location and size implications are included in the objections. Thousands of tonnes of household waste generated annually in the country, is required to be dealt, according to those who favour the development.
