A waste incineration plant in Bicester has applied to alter its environmental permit.
Viridor Oxfordshire Limited has applied to alter the environmental permit of its Ardley Energy Recovery Facility, a waste incineration plant on Middleton Stoney Road, Bicester. The facility handles non-hazardous waste at a capacity exceeding three tonnes per hour.
The application outlines 'substantial' changes across several areas. These include modifications to the installation itself, the types and amounts of materials, substances and energy the plant will use and generate, and the overall conditions of the site. The company has also detailed the source, nature and quantity of expected emissions, their potential environmental impact, and proposed techniques for managing these. Viridor has provided an overview of alternative options it considered.
The Environment Agency will decide whether to approve the application and what conditions to attach to the permit. Residents are invited to view the application and submit comments by November 5 via online submission or email to pspublicresponse@environment-agency.gov.uk. The Environment Agency typically makes comments it receives public, including the name of the person who made them, though personal contact details are withheld. Respondents can request that their response not be made public.
