The South London Waste Partnership (SLWP) – a voluntary waste disposal
partnership between Sutton, Croydon, Merton and Kingston Councils has been
working together for a number of years to find cost effective and sustainable
waste disposal solutions. The work started with reuse & recycling centres
and waste transport in the early days and progressed on to finding ways to
divert waste from landfill. In the last few months the SLWP has selected
Viridor as the preferred bidder to provide an energy recovery facility (ERF) in
Beddington Lane.
In order to get permission to build the ERF plant, Viridor must apply
for planning permission and get a permit from the Environment Agency to operate
the site. Sutton Council received Viridor’s
planning application last week and this has now been validated. It is being
registered as a valid application today (31st July 2012) and will be available on the Sutton Council website from Friday (3rd August).
Neighbour notification letters will be delivered this Friday and this will be the beginning of a 6 week notification
period.
