Much has already been said and documented but the main areas of concern are health risks from pollutants and a responsibility to our children and grandchildren for their well-being of them and their future families. The congestion for traffic is already unbearable throughout the town and on the industrial estate where I work as a result of the Wisbech Cold Food Storage facility. The roads have been destroyed and the maintenance has been unable to cope with repairs. Be prepared for a Class action for health-related claims in the future for our children's poor health. It should be noted by the Examining Authority that there have already been successful rejections for this incinerator from other towns for the same reasons. There should be more studies to have this placed offshore away from living towns with healthy thriving communities. Our family moved here to the Fens because of the healthy nature of the surroundings. This proposal will have a detrimental effect on property values also.
