Should waste produced in this county be treated and disposed of in Somerset? Should we restrict landfilling? Is it reasonable to export or import waste if money can be saved by doing so? These are the sort of questions addressed by a new "Issues and Options" consultation that Somerset County Council would like businesses, the public and community groups to comment on. The consultation covers all waste types - not just household waste - and the results from consultation will inform the preparation of the County Council's "Waste Core Strategy" which will run to the year 2028. NB: responses will be treated as in the public domain.
This consultation has now closed.
