Stephenson Halliday has been assisting Cumbria Waste Management Ltd in their planning application for a Materials Recovery Facility at Flusco Landfill Site. The planning application was considered by the Development Control and Regulation Committee on 19th June 2008. We are delighted to be able to announce that the application was approved by the committee with little debate.

Once constructed, the facility will allow CWM Ltd to increase recycling of wastes collected at the adjacent Household Waste Recycling Centre and provide for more efficient haulage of recyclable waste collected in the Penrith area.

Regulations came into force last year to allow local authorities to charge for making visits to sites to monitor their progress and ensure compliance with conditions attached to planning permissions. As a means of examining their own compliance with planning conditions, Cumbria Waste Management engaged Stephenson Halliday to assess the restoration progress at the Distington, Flusco and Hespin Wood landfill sites. The report summarising this assessment was completed in June 2007.
