Dear National Requests,

Response to Question 1
I am confused. Are you saying that WWMP (Amey Cespa) does not take in any type of wood waste? I am aware that they do collect wood waste hence asking what their permit requirements are re. Wood waste processing / collection.

Response to question 2
The information was not attached or is not accessible to view. Please reattach

Yours sincerely,

Jude Sutton

Dear Jude,

 

Thank you for your email dated September 26 regarding Q1 – Amey Cespa
Waterbeach site.

 

Our area team send their apologies for omitting this previously and have
sent the following information –

 

‘There are several permits held at the Amey Waterbeach site.

There will be no specific condition solely related to the processing of
wood only in any of the permits.

The permits will generally set out ‘limits of activity’ or ‘description of
specified activity’ for waste types or operations, and these may include:
storage, manual sorting, separation, screening, baling, shredding,
crushing, compaction or composting.

Processing and storage may also be required to be carried out on an
impermeable pavement with sealed drainage’.

 

Please accept our apologies.

 

Kind Regards
