Waste Reduction and Recycling

Government Legislation and policy changes have now firmly moved the industry away from “Dig and Dump” in favour of maximising recycled materials and waste reduction.  The items listed below are applying increasing pressure on how Client’s plan and design their projects particularly on Brownfield sites.

  • Increase in landfill tax by £8 per tonne per annum (£40 per tonne April 09)
  • New Landfill Tax Exemption applications will not be accepted from 2009 inwards
  • Land Remediation Relief (this will be available on land fill tax)
  • Derelict Land Relief TBA
  • Legal requirement to pre-treat waste prior to disposal off site
  • Site Waste Management Plans Regulations 2008 (One aim is to identify waste minimising opportunities at the design phase and encourage the re-use/recycling that reduces demand for primary aggregates)
  • The Definition of Waste: Industry Code of Practice  (implemented on site through a Materials Management Plan) 

Through our specialist expertise we assist Clients at the purchase and planning stages of projects to ensure best value through on and off site waste reduction and recycling. An SWMP (Site Waste Management Plan) & MMP (Materials Management Plan) is developed, against which progress can be measured.
