Preferred Options consultation document

Representation ID: 98190

Received: 28/10/2019

Respondent: Kevin Waddington

Representation Summary:

Norfolk has a no incineration policy following the abandonment of the proposed facility on the Willows site in Saddlebow in Kings Lynn. In a poll organised by the Borough Council 65000 people voted to say that they did not want this built. Therefore. to keep the option of incineration in the proposals is in violation of the Council's own policy. Therefore incineration needs to be removed from the draft plan.

There are two issues that I would like to comment on:

Norfolk has a no incineration policy following the abandonment of the proposed facility on the Willows site in Saddlebow in Kings Lynn. In a poll organised by the Borough Council 65000 people voted to say that they did not want this built. Therefore. to keep the option of incineration in the proposals is in violation of the Council's own policy.

Fracking should not be allowed anywhere near people's homes or near the Wash or any other protected areas. In addition it is a retrograde policy at a time when we should be putting every effort in producing our energy from sustainable and low carbon sources. Therefore, fracking along with incineration needs to be removed from the Draft Plans.
