Planning Permission Approved at ENRMF

Augean, one of the UK's leading specialist waste management businesses, is pleased to announce that the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government has approved an application to grant planning permission for the extension of the size and life of the East Northants Resource Management Facility (ENRMF).

This decision follows an extensive public enquiry and grants Augean a Development Consent Order for the construction of one million m3 of new hazardous landfill void space and allows continuation of site operations until 2026. The site will continue to treat and dispose a range of hazardous wastes and also low level radioactive waste.

Further details will be provided in the Group's half year pre-close trading update, which will be published on 23rd July 2013.
