Fracking
Unnatural disturbance of the Earth's geological structure and plates is caused by fracking. Unknown effects could be disastrous and harmful for communities. It is irresponsible and dangerous for the current and future population. Fracking will contribute to climate change so goes against all policies to lessen effects of unnatural 'actions', eruptions and earth tremors.
Fracking already taking place in the Country has caused several tremors, causing fear, alarm and distress to residents. This is a material effect on human health and well-being.

Incineration
West Norfolk is responsible for more than a quarter of the County's emissions
(Lynn News page 12 - 9 August 2019.)

To allow, or even think of putting incineration into policies, is blatantly going against democracy of the last King's Lynn & West Norfolk Borough Poll where 65,000 people voted against incineration and NCC wasted millions of pounds on an abandoned project. Efforts should be put into alternative methods of waste reduction and disposal, or re-use schemes.

Questions asked by Norfolk County Councillor, Alexandra Kemp to NCC Cabinet.
Following £34 million lost from Council's budget, with the cancellation of the infamous South Lynn incinerator contract for Planning Failure in 2014, Council agreed a No-Incineration-in-Norfolk Policy, ("Appendix M").

West Norfolk is alarmed by the criteria-based Draft Waste Plan, which fails to state our No-Incineration Policy, instead permissively lists forms of incineration ( page 56), endangers West Winch Growth Area by permitting prospecting for fracking ( page 90), erroneously ignoring prospecting always causes earthquakes.

Can Cabinet amend the Plan to state " in West Norfolk, where 65,000 people voted against incineration in the Borough Poll, applications for incinerators will not be permitted"; and exclude fracking and prospecting for fracking?

West Winch Parish Council agrees with the County Councillor, Alexandra Kemp.

We do not need these policies which can cause more problems with emissions and climate change.

Para 8.9 there should be no impact on human health - densely populated area King's Lynn and proposed massive development at South East King's Lynn (SEKL).
Para 8.20 mentions Ancient Woodland - This must also apply to historical Grazing Commons, especially in West Winch and North Runcton.

Historical Environment
Para 8.28 - King's Lynn has ancient historical buildings. Harmful emissions and fracking would affect these valued buildings which attract visitors and tourists, contributing major finance to the area's economy.

West Winch and North Runcton have protected sites of local value -
Reference - page 20, West Winch and North Runcton Neighbourhood Plan (Planning material consideration)
Plus, 2 sites of Special Scientific Interest, and
3 County Wildlife Sites, including West Winch Common.

Para 8.31 Agricultural Land, which should include Grazing Common Land, must all be protected from contamination to protect our food chain for the future of the whole Country.

Page 34 Cumulative Impacts
It is imperative that cumulative impacts are taken into account as too often measurements are only taken close to the proposed development. Cumulative measurements impact on human health.

Page 46 '.... Not considered necessary to allocate any waste management sites in the Plan' - which means these sites can be developed anywhere on industrial sites etc and they could be near to densely populated areas.
This should be scrutinised more closely and incineration must be deleted.

Norfolk County Council needs to keep tight control over hazardous waste received from other Waste Planning Authorities.

Page 48 Policy WP2 Distance
Distance of waste facilities needs to be considerably increased to safe levels for human health away from populated areas.

Fracking
Unnatural disturbance of the Earth's geological structure and plates is caused by fracking. Unknown effects could be disastrous and harmful for communities. It is irresponsible and dangerous for the current and future population. Fracking will contribute to climate change so goes against all policies to lessen effects of unnatural 'actions', eruptions and earth tremors.
Fracking already taking place in the Country has caused several tremors, causing fear, alarm and distress to residents. This is a material effect on human health and well-being.

Incineration
West Norfolk is responsible for more than a quarter of the County's emissions
(Lynn News page 12 - 9 August 2019.)

To allow, or even think of putting incineration into policies, is blatantly going against democracy of the last King's Lynn & West Norfolk Borough Poll where 65,000 people voted against incineration and NCC wasted millions of pounds on an abandoned project. Efforts should be put into alternative methods of waste reduction and disposal, or re-use schemes.

Questions asked by Norfolk County Councillor, Alexandra Kemp to NCC Cabinet.
Following £34 million lost from Council's budget, with the cancellation of the infamous South Lynn incinerator contract for Planning Failure in 2014, Council agreed a No-Incineration-in-Norfolk Policy, ("Appendix M").

West Norfolk is alarmed by the criteria-based Draft Waste Plan, which fails to state our No-Incineration Policy, instead permissively lists forms of incineration ( page 56), endangers West Winch Growth Area by permitting prospecting for fracking ( page 90), erroneously ignoring prospecting always causes earthquakes.

Can Cabinet amend the Plan to state " in West Norfolk, where 65,000 people voted against incineration in the Borough Poll, applications for incinerators will not be permitted"; and exclude fracking and prospecting for fracking?

West Winch Parish Council agrees with the County Councillor, Alexandra Kemp.

We do not need these policies which can cause more problems with emissions and climate change.
