Representation ID: 94378

Received: 21/10/2019

Respondent: Mrs LDT Gallagher

Representation Summary:

Waste Management Objectives 1-8 - How do NCC intend to prevent and minimise waste without the ability to recycle glass or a system of reuse within the county? Further reductions in CO2 emissions from collections and distribution of waste can only be achieved by a world class glass recycling centre in Norfolk with a good train-line link. Import glass/export cullet via train line. landfill is not the answer as this exacerbates both the need for areas to fill and the emissions that will inevitably be caused by transport to those sites. Create jobs for Norfolk
