The South London Waste Plan
Publication Stage of the Proposed Submission Version
The Proposed Submission version of the South London Waste Plan Development Plan Document (DPD) is to be published on Tuesday, 4 January 2011. The Publication Stage, during which comments are invited, will last six weeks. The deadline for representations on the South London Waste Plan DPD is midnight on Tuesday, 15 February 2011.
What is the South London Waste Plan?
The South London Waste Plan DPD sets out the issues and objectives to be met in waste management for the next ten years. It is a joint DPD and covers the geographical area comprising the London Borough of Croydon, the Royal Borough of Kingston-upon-Thames, the London Borough of Merton and the London Borough of Sutton. The South London Waste Plan DPD contains policies to guide the determination of planning applications for waste management facilities and identifies existing waste sites to be safeguarded and areas where waste management development may be suitable.
How do I make Representations?
The purpose of the Publication Stage is to test the DPD’s legal compliance and the DPD’s soundness (ie: the DPD should be justified, effective and consistent with national policy) and so representations should be confined to these topics. More information on how to judge legal compliance and soundness can be found in the notes with the response form.
