Would there be any odour, pollution or vermin implications?
There would only be limited volumes of waste such as garden waste and some non-recyclable wastes that may cause any odour problems. However, suitable containment would prevent any nuisance being created. Dust or litter problems can arise at sites in dry or windy weather conditions. This potential impact would be drastically reduced by the use of sealed containers at the site and by covering or enclosing the materials being removed from the site. The roads and hardstandings within the site would be subjected to regular mechanical sweeping to prevent dust or other debris being carried off the site. We do not encourage residual (black-bag) waste to be brought to the site so it will be kept to a minimum, and most waste will be removed within 24 hours, therefore we do not foresee a problem with vermin. Any such issues would be addressed in a planning application and any subsequent Waste Management Licence conditions. (Otterspool HWRC in Liverpool) What hours would it be open? The proposed o
