Finding a way forward - 2004 - Wastes Management July 2004, 26-27(2) .
The pollution prevention and control regime is significantly different from the previous waste management licensing regime, particularly in the way that landfill installations are defined. Looks at some of the issues faced by landfill operators applying for permits under the new regime. Applications now have to include risk assessments on hydrogeology, stability, landfill gas, nuisance, health and habitats. In particular whole landfill sites must comply with the Groundwater Regulations 1998. Considers the Environment Agency's (EA) guidance in dealing with the different situations presented by landfill sites where the EA accepts that not all areas of an existing site can be re-engineered to meet the regulations.
