On 14th November 2008, SEPA received an application from Viridor Waste Management Limited to operate an energy from waste facility at its site near Dunbar.

A previous application, submitted by Viridor in January 2008, was withdrawn due to a change in the proposed throughput of waste.

A copy of the full application and a non-technical summary can be downloaded by clicking on the links above.

The non-technical summary (provided by Viridor as part of the application) gives a more general overview of the proposed facility and the application submitted.

If after looking at these documents and the FAQ section below you have any further queries, the Having Your Say section on this page gives specific information on how you can contact SEPA.
