If you need support in preparing a landfill ppc application, reviewing Permit conditions, evaluating the success of your site in achieving compliance criteria, and negotiating Permit issues with regulatory authorities, ESI can help.

ESI has a wealth of experience with all types of waste disposal site, including hazardous, non-hazardous and inert landfills. We can coordinate the preparation of applications and specialise in the optimisation of design to meet environmental and legal imperatives whilst keeping a lid on construction and operational costs.

Since the advent of regulations to implement the EU Landfill Directive in UK law, increasing emphasis is placed on the recycling and re-use of waste materials. Material that still goes to landfill is classified as inert, non-hazardous or hazardous. The requirements for planning, engineering, managing and monitoring sites become more onerous with the type of facility.

These requirements are determined on the basis of appropriate, site-specific risk assessments, which need information on the characteristics of the local environment and the installation design. Critical site issues that have to be addressed include ecological characteristics, the potential for environmental pollution from leachate or gas migration, the stability of the installation and operational issues including noise and dust.

Engineering and operating requirements can be developed using risk assessments to achieve the highest cost-effectiveness, avoiding unnecessary complication while ensuring environmental protection.
