The proposed incineration capacity is o longer required for the 30 year plant life. The additional cost of importing wastes to maintain the plant in operation means that the plant will be uneconomic. At a time when we need to reduce costs, approving this plant would appear folly. The toxic emissions and impact on the lives of local folks have been totally ignored with sub 2.5 micron emissions underestimated. The emissions are also counter to the Nett Zero aims of the UK as expressed at COP 27.
