Not very long ago following a very protracted process, another such proposal (for an incinerator at a site just outside King's Lynn) was eventually defeated and I am disappointed that a new proposal has arisen so quickly which also could threaten health and pose potential harm to the lives of residents in the borough. I note that West Norfolk Council's planning team has identified key issues and concerns about these proposals which I share and I sincerely hope these will properly be taken into account together with the (proven in the previous case referred to above) concerns of many, many residents so that I trust the application will be refused. No infrastructure which could cause harm to health should ever be put in or near a residential area and prevailing winds should also be taken into account.
