Joint Waste DPD

Joint Merseyside and Halton Waste Development Plan Document

The Joint Waste Development Plan Document (Waste DPD) for Merseyside and Halton will set out a planning strategy for sustainable waste management that extends to 2027.

The six councils of Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens and Wirral are preparing the Joint Waste DPD for the sub-region. The purpose of the Joint Waste DPD is to enable the adequate provision of waste management facilities (including disposal) in appropriate locations for municipal, commercial and industrial, construction, demolition and excavation, and hazardous wastes.

Proposed Submission Consultation

The most recent stage of preparation of the Waste DPD was to publish the Proposed Submission Waste DPD and consult on its soundness and legal compliance. This final consultation stage known as “Representations on Soundness” took place from 25 November 2011 for eight weeks. The consultation closed at 5pm on Friday 20th January 2012. The Waste DPD team have now processed all comments received for submission to the Department of Communities and Local Government (CLG) for formal consideration and scrutiny.

Submission and Examination

The Joint Merseyside and Halton Waste Development Plan Document was submitted to the Secretary of State at DCLG (Department of Communities and Local Government) on 17 February 2012 for formal consideration and scrutiny. The Submission documents are available electronically via the Waste DPD Document Archive to view and download.

Alternatively, the Submission documents will also be made available at Council Libraries and One Stop Shops in hard copy and electronic format from the week commencing 5 March 2012. To find out where your closest deposit location is, visit http://wasteplanningmerseyside.gov.uk/site.do?id=818.
