And that site only processes 60,000 tonnes a year. With the PFI plant and Biffa + the two existing incinerators at Knostrop we are looking at 100,000 tonnes a year MINIMUM.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7471922919187447505.post-4276248387588994562010-07-01T14:10:45.991+01:002010-07-01T14:10:45.991+01:00http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/...http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/cmhansrd/cm091130/text/91130w0038.htm<br /><br /> <br />Incinerators: Health Hazards<br /><br />Paul Holmes: To ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) what recent assessment his Department has made of the effect on public health of emissions from a functioning incinerator; [302956]<br /><br />(2) with reference to the answer to the hon.

[302957]<br /><br />Ann Keen: The Department has made no recent assessments of the effect on public health of emissions from incinerators, or the effects on infant mortality.<br /><br />The health protection agency (HPA) recently reviewed the latest research on the impact on health of emissions to air from modern municipal waste incinerators and published a statement in September 2009. It concluded that, while it is not possible to rule out adverse health effects completely, any potential damage from modern, well-run and regulated incinerators is likely to be so small that it would be undetectable. <br /><br />So they are willing to take the risk, but then they don't have to do they; they don't live near to one of these plants, we are be being asked to live very near to three and possibly four of these plants.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
