CSW 16 Safeguarding of Existing Waste Management Facilities

Sites that have permanent planning permission for waste management, or are allocated in the Waste Sites Plan are safeguarded from being developed for non waste management uses. Where other development is proposed at, or within 250m of, safeguarded waste management facilities Local Planning Authorities will consult the Waste planning Authority and take account of its views before making a planning decision (in terms of both a planning application and an allocation in a local plan).
