Now that the Environment Agency have sent a circular letter to 700 families, it’s important for there to be a proper public response (else the EA will think no-one cares), so we now need to move with some speed. This is particularly important, because we think the EA’s information sheet is misleading, by continually referring to plans for an “incinerator”, and virtually ignoring the fact that the plans include an anaerobic digester.
Although they have withdrawn from the Planning Inquiry it appears that Clean Power have not given up their attempt to develop a waste disposal site on Moor Street but are now trying a different route…including hazardous waste.
On 17th June the planning inspectorate will be conducting an appeal hearing into ‘Clean Power’ proposals to build a further waste site in Brierley Hill. Local environmental group SNOW are calling a public meeting on 4th June at 7pm at Hawbush School to update residents and plan for the appeal.
