7 Secondary and Recycled Materials

The County Council will seek, encourage and support the increased use of secondary and recycled materials in place of primary land-won aggregates in development proposals.

Facilities to allow the handling, and where necessary the re-processing, of secondary and recycled aggregates will be supported in appropriate locations, particularly where this reduces the need for the extraction of primary land-won aggregates, particularly within Hertfordshire.
