MIN20 Proposals Involving Landfilling, Re-Working or Disturbance of Old Landfill Sites – Gas Control and Monitoring Requirements

The local planning authority will require any new proposals involving landfilling or the re-working or disturbance of old landfill sites to demonstrate the incorporation of a gas control and monitoring scheme. The local planning authority also will require applicants wishing to change the use of land restored by landfill to demonstrate that the proposals:

  1. Have taken account of landfill gas;
  2. Will not result in ancillary activities which could affect any venting of landfill gas or other pollution control measures;
  3. Will provide suitable protection of any pollution control measures.
