Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Executive summary
The need to identify sites and areas for new waste management facilities
There is a recognised need for a step-change in the recycling, composting and recovery of all types of waste alongsidea reduction in the landfilling of waste. New development will be necessary to meet these objectives. To supportthe delivery of sustainable waste management, Waste Planning Authorities are required to indicate where wastemanagement developments and facilities are to be located; when they are to be provided; and how they will bedelivered. This should be based on robust evidence of what potential there is for delivering sustainable wastemanagement in the area.
What is the purpose of this study?
This study presents the findings of an ongoing process whereby areas of land have been assessed to determinetheir potential to accommodate different types of future waste management development. These sites includethose put forward for consideration by waste operators and landowners. This study does not propose or ‘allocate’locations, but identifies sites where waste development may in principle be supported (subject to a range ofenvironmental and amenity criteria).
Accompanying this study are other reports which have been prepared to assess the need for additional wastemanagement facilities in Hampshire(1). Also a study has been prepared which assesses the suitability of all theindustrial estates in Hampshire to host waste management facilities.(2)
What methodology was used?
Themethodology used for this study involves assessing areas of land, including those put forward for considerationby waste operators and landowners, against a set of criteria to determine their potential to accommodate the differenttypes of future waste management development. The assessment criteria are set out in national guidance. Wastemanagement facilities have been categorised into seven broad development types for the purposes of this study.
What types of sites were identified?
A large number of sites have been nominated for assessment and have been grouped into five sections in this study(see sections 5-9). Firstly, a number of existing waste management facilities have been nominated as the operatorsconsider these sites to have potential to provide additional waste management capacity. Secondly, a number ofsites which are already in use or allocated for employment/ industrial activities have been nominated. Certain wastemanagement activities are compatible with these types of land uses, and so it may be more appropriate to prioritisethis land for the location of future waste management facilities.
Thirdly, a number of other vacant or redundant sites have been nominated and identified. Many of these siteshave not previously been developed, but are in well-screened locations away from residential areas, and may provideopportunities for locating certain types of facilities. Fourthly, there are broad areas in Hampshire which have beenidentified for major planned mixed-use development (which may incorporate supporting waste infrastructure).
The sites shown in these sections have been considered for waste recycling and recovery facilities. The final sectiontherefore concentrates on sites which have been nominated as potentially providing landfill void in future, for thelimited amount of disposal that will be required.

9Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Summary of key findings:
Geography/ Impacts / Location
It is important to consider the cumulative effect of previous waste disposal facilities on a community’swellbeing.The waste industry nominated a range of land use types including: vehicle depots; redundant agriculturalland and buildings; brownfield sites at major transport junctions; rail sidings; former MoD land; andland at the fringes of industrial estates.Certain waste management activities are similar to agricultural practices and have little option but tobe located in more rural locations.Locations for waste management activity depend on the availability of vacant land which is consideredfeasible for development by the waste industry.Hampshire has very limited opportunities to accommodate landfill sites due to its environmentalconstraints and other characteristics.Whilst a number of sites are well-located in terms of their proximity to urban areas, the deliverabilityand viability of developing some of these for waste management uses remains uncertain.
Capacity
Opportunities exist to maximise waste management provision at proven suitable locations for wastemanagement activities.Further evidence is required to support any assumptions about how extending existing capacity mightmeet identified needs.Site extensions could be a source of additional waste management capacity in Hampshire.Nominated sites in section 7 may be able to provide additional waste management capacity for themain North Hampshire and South Hampshire market areas.Five planned development areas have potential to accommodate supporting waste managementinfrastructure.
Sites
A number of existing sites are considered suitable for additional or enhanced waste managementactivities in principle (subject to the consideration of any planning application).Sites currently allocated for employment uses can often be appropriate as locations for wastemanagement development- particularly for smaller enclosed development and waste transfer stations.It is not feasible to locate all types of waste development on industrial estates.Two existing landfill sites and one proposed landfill site are listed in section 9 have been consideredsuitable in principle for landfill with non-hazardous waste (subject to addressing deliverability issues).A proportion of sites identified were ruled out early in the process.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)10
Next steps
This document is part of the evidence base supporting the approach laid out in the Hampshire Minerals & WastePlan. This plan contains a number of policies in relation to the location of waste facilities which have been informedby the information in this document. The Hampshire Minerals & Waste Plan will be subject to an 'examination' byan Inspector in due course after the consultation on its 'soundness' has taken place. Following that examination,the Inspector will report his findings and state whether the Plan (possibly with amendments), is 'sound' (or fit forpurpose) and can proceed towards 'adoption' (by the planning authorities).

Section 1 Background and Introduction
1.1 Study Purpose
3 This study has been prepared to provide background evidence to inform the Hampshire Minerals and WastePlan(3). Where necessary the plan will indicate what waste management developments and facilities arerequired in Hampshire and the most suitable locations for these facilities. Identifying what potential thereis for delivering sustainable waste management is important because positive planning is concerned withopportunities and not just constraints(4). Plans must be justifiable; founded on a robust and credible evidencebase which should be as up-to-date as practical(5). This study therefore builds on previous work undertakento identify the locations needed to deliver the waste management requirements in Hampshire(6)
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the potential to accommodate a range of new and enhancedwaste management infrastructure in suitable locations in Hampshire. Areas of land, including thoseput forward for consideration by waste operators and landowners, have been assessed to determinetheir potential to accommodate the different types of future waste management development. Thisstudy reports the findings of an iterative assessment process used to classify sites by their potentialsuitability.
The inclusion of sites in this document does notmean that proposals will obtain planning permissionand the necessary consents to allow development to proceed.
The objectives of this study are:1. To provide an 'audit trail' detailing which sites were nominated throughout the evidence gathering stage of
plan preparation; and how these were assessed;
2. To demonstrate the realistic prospect of delivery of waste management uses on suitable sites in Hampshire;
3. To highlight identified constraints, and where possible provide information on how these constraints couldbe overcome;
4. To provide an account of the decision-making process leading to the identification of 'most suitable' sitesfor further consideration;
5. To help demonstrate that sufficient developable sites are likely to be available during the plan period.
3 Hampshire County Council is the Minerals andWaste Planning Authority responsible for the planning of minerals and waste development in Hampshire. HampshireCounty Council in partnership with Southampton City Council, Portsmouth City Council and the New Forest National Park Authority are the 'Joint Plan MakingAuthorities' responsible for producing the Hampshire Minerals and Waste Development Framework. The Minerals & Waste Development Framework applies toa 'plan area' which covers the areas administered by the joint plan-making authorities, including a small part of the National Park which is in Wiltshire.

1.2 Structure of the study
4 Following this introduction,
section 2 describes and justifies themethodology chosen to initially assess identified sites for theirsuitability.
Section 3 provides further contextual information by explaining the importance of 'deliverability'in deciding whether nominated sites should go forward for further appraisal and potential allocation.
Section 4 presents key findings from this report, the options for plan preparation, and describes thenext steps in the assessment and decision-making process.
Section 5 provides information on sites currently permitted for waste uses (existing sites), and thepotential to extend or expand these sites to provide further waste management capacity during theplan period.
Section 6 provides information on nominated sites which are already allocated for employmentuses, and how these will be considered as part of the plan preparation.
Section 7 provides information about other nominated sites judged suitable for waste facilities inprinciple (prior to further consultation and appraisal). The identified opportunities and constraints tobe addressed, are discussed.
Section 8 provides information on the potential of areas of planned new development in Hampshire,in terms of accommodating waste management sites.
Section 9 provides information on sites nominated for disposal to land.
5 Relevant information is also shown in appendices at the end of this study. Notably, Appendix 3 'Nominatedsites considered less suitable' provides information about the sites which have been deemed unsuitable andthus eliminated from any further appraisal. The appendices will be referred to throughout the study whereappropriate.
Most of the nominations for potential new site opportunities are shown in sections 6 and 7. The informationprovided in these sections seeks to:
Explain how the site was identified and nominated for inclusion in the assessment process;Provide some factual information about the sites, (including the identified development constraints);Specify the outcome form the assessment undertaken to date;Where possible, identify the type or types of waste management facility that would be appropriatelylocated on the site/ area;Articulate the main issues which would need to be overcome in order for the sites to be considereddeliverable;Suggest the most likely potential uses on the sites, taking into account their characteristics.

1.4 Policy Context
7 The following explains the national and local policy context for considering sites for waste managementuses. This policy context has influenced the approach to the site assessment as explained in Section 2'Methodology for site selection and assessment'. Planning Policy Statement 10: Planning for Sustainable WasteManagement (revised March 2011) provides policy and guidance on identifying suitable sites and areas forwaste management. Paragraphs 20-21 state:
Identifying suitable sites and areas
In searching for sites and areas suitable for new or enhanced waste management facilities, waste planningauthorities should consider:
opportunities for on-site management of waste where it arises;a broad range of locations including industrial sites, looking for opportunities to co-locate facilitiestogether and with complementary activities.
In deciding which sites and areas to identify for waste management facilities, waste planning authorities should:
(i) assess their suitability for development against each of the following criteria:
the extent to which they support the policies in this PPS;the physical and environmental constraints on development, including existing and proposed neighbouringland uses (see Annex E);the cumulative effect of previous waste disposal facilities on the well-being of the local community,including any significant adverse impacts on environmental quality, social cohesion and inclusion oreconomic potential;the capacity of existing and potential transport infrastructure to support the sustainable movement ofwaste, and products arising from resource recovery, seeking when practicable and beneficial to use modesother than road transport.
(ii) give priority to the re-use of previously-developed land, and redundant agricultural and forestry buildingsand their curtilages.
8 The above extract mentions Annex E. This annex has been used to form the basis of the site suitabilityassessments used in this study (see Section 2 'Methodology for site selection and assessment'). Annex E isshown in Appendix 1 'Extract from PPS10 - Site suitability criteria'.
9 Whilst the South East Plan (published in 2009) is now due to be revoked, the waste planning policies itcontained are still of interest in terms of background context. There are two policies in the South East Planwhich are particularly relevant in terms of providing a policy context for identifying and assessing suitablewaste sites. The locational requirements of different waste management activities are emphasised by policyW7; and policy W17 emphasises the importance of good transport connections and compatible land useswhen considering the suitability of sites:
15Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Extract from policy W7: Waste Management Capacity Requirements
In bringing forward and safeguarding sites for waste management facilities, WPAs should consider the type,size and mix of facilities that will be required, taking into account:
activities requiring largely open sites, such as aggregate recycling and open windrow compostingactivities of an industrial nature dealing with largely segregated materials and requiring enclosed premises,such as materials recovery facilities, dis-assembly and re-manufacturing plants, and reprocessing industriesactivities dealing with mixed materials requiring enclosed industrial premises, such as mechanical-biologicaltreatment, anaerobic digestion and energy from waste facilitieshybrid activities requiring sites with buildings and open storage areas, including re-use facilities andenclosed composting systems.
In areas of major new developments consideration should be given to identifying sites for integrated resourcerecovery facilities and new resource parks accommodating a mix of activities where they meet environmental,technical and operational objectives.
Policy W17: Location of Waste Management Facilities(8).
Waste development documents will, in identifying locations for waste management facilities, give priority tosafeguarding and expanding suitable sites with an existing waste management use and good transportconnections. The suitability of existing sites and potential new sites should be assessed on the basis of thefollowing characteristics:
i. good accessibility from existing urban areas or major new or planned developmentii. good transport connections including, where possible, rail or wateriii. compatible land uses, namely:
active mineral working sitesprevious or existing industrial land usecontaminated or derelict landland adjoining sewage treatment worksredundant farm buildings and their curtilages
iv. be capable of meeting a range of locally based environmental and amenity criteria.
Waste management facilities should not be precluded from the Green Belt. Small-scale waste managementfacilities for local needs should not be precluded from Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and NationalParks where the development would not compromise the objectives of the designation.
8 (Criteria in W17 also applies to all proposals for mineral recycling facilities).
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)16
10 At the local planing level is Hampshire's Minerals & Waste Core Strategy which was adopted in 2007. TheCore Strategy sets out a 'spatial vision' for future minerals and waste planning in Hampshire, and specificallyincludes a locational policy which states that strategic facilities, shall be located within North East Hampshireor South Hampshire, thus ensuring as far as possible, waste will be managed near to where it is produced.These growth areas are therefore expected to provide the bulk of capacity for Hampshire’s waste managementinfrastructure – excluding landfill and composting facilities because of their extensive nature – by theprovision of large strategic sites. It is expected that the needs of rural areas will generally be met by smaller,more community-based facilities.
11 The Core Strategy (2007)states large strategic sites, other than composting, landfill and construction wasteprocessing, will only be permitted elsewhere in the plan area on ‘windfall’ (e.g. unexpectedly available)brownfield land with good transport access. This framework for considering the location of future wastemanagement, will be taken into account when determining the preferred approach to identified sites andareas as part of the new plan (see Section 4 'Key Findings').

Section 2 Methodology for site selection and assessment
Introduction: Identifying and assessing site 'options'
12 The typical approach to assessing the suitability of sites to accommodate different types of future wastemanagement development, involves using a set of criteria. This helps categorise sites by their suitability, asthere can be a range of different 'options' proposed at the initial stages. Potential sites (often nominatedby landowners) can be filtered, until a ‘short list’ of reasonable sites is generated for consultation andmore detailed assessment. This study demonstrates how different site options have been considered early ontherefore, and the rationale for taking forward and rejecting site options at the initial stages of planpreparation.
13 This initial assessment helps identify site options which are "realistic and genuinely implementable inpractice"(9), and is the basis for the site suitability assessment stage (stage 6) (and thus this study). Theprocess of identifying sites and undertaking the initial suitability assessment is summarised in the diagrambelow, and explained in more detail in the remainder of this section.

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)18
Stage 1: Identifying potential sites
14 Although the search for sites for waste management has traditionally focused on opportunities for landfilland on existing waste management facilities, this study is primarily concerned with sites for waste recycling,composting, treatment or disposal.
Potential sites were identified using a number of sources, including:
Sites nominated by landowners, agencies and industry following invitations to nominate sites as part ofthe preparation of the Hampshire Minerals & Waste Development Framework(10);Sites nominated by minerals and waste industry operators;'Saved' preferred sites in the Hampshire, Portsmouth & Southampton Minerals & Waste Local Plan (1998);Sites identified by the Councils through examination of existing waste management facilities;Sites allocated in local authority plans as employment land (industrial locations);National Land Use Database(11).
Stage 2: Initial evaluation of all identified sites
15 All the nominated and identified sites were subject to a desk-top study by Hampshire County Councilofficers specialising in landscape, archaeology and ecology. Discussions were also held with minerals andwaste planning officers within the County Council who have extensive knowledge of Hampshire and itsexisting waste infrastructure. The information gathered was used to eliminate sites identified as havingsignificant constraints that were unlikely to be overcome (see stage 3).
Stage 3: Removing 'problematic' sites
16 The reason for ruling a site out is typically based on its performance against exclusionary constraints. Theseact as a 'sieve' to identify key constraints which would prevent waste development from taking place, andrepresent a means of removing unsuitable areas from further assessment in the early stages. For instance,sites that were found to have unacceptable impacts were removed from the process at the outset. SeeAppendix 3 'Nominated sites considered less suitable' for the justification for ruling these sites out early inthe process.
Stages 4 & 5: Seeking comments & further nominations
17 Early informal consultation on the options for sites took place between September and November 2006.Subsequently, a number of further nominations were received, as well as information about existing wastesites with potential for extension,and further consultation therefore took place during May-June 2007. Theinitial sites were set out in a Sites Discussion Paper (and subsequent addendum, as part of ongoing consultation).This ‘Issues and Options’ stage provided an opportunity for Statutory Consultees and other interestedparties to express their views on all sites identified.
10 Letters were sent to landowners and industry in 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2010.11 Officers interrogated the National Land Use Database. This database contains information on previously developed land and buildings in England that may
be available for development and is updated annually. See http://www.homesandcommunities.co.uk/NLUD
19Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Stage 6: Site suitability assessment
18 Following the removal of problematic sites and some initial consultation, the remaining sites were takenforward to stage 6 which involves a more detailed desktop evaluation, the results of which are reported inthis study.
The sites are classified by site status depending on the nature of the site as follows:
1. Existing sites nominated for extensions2. Sites currently allocated for employment uses3. Other nominated sites (for further appraisal)4. Sites in areas of planned development5. Sites nominated for disposal to land (non-hazardous landfill or backfilling with inert materials)6. Nominated sites considered less suitable
NOTE: Each site referred to in this study has a unique site code (e.g. BSD 004). This code is purely for the purposes of thisstudy and should not be confused with sites codes used for other purposes (such as Planning Application references). The sitecodes are not in consecutive order since they were attributed as the sites were nominated (prior to theclassification as described above). Nominations for mineral extraction were also attributed with codes (andthese are not included in this study).
19 The 'suitability assessment' involved an appraisal of the physical and environmental constraints ondevelopment (including existing and proposed neighbouring land uses). The factors considered whenexamining constraints are set out in the table below along with an explanatory commentary. The assessmentprocess highlights the characteristics of the site and its constraints. This information was then usedto determine what types of waste management development could potentially be suitably for sites. Sitesmay be suitable for some types of waste management facility within a category, but not others. Proposalswill be subject to further assessment and control at the planning application stage. Seven broad categoriesof waste management facilities were used for this (for details see Appendix 2 'Broad categories of wastemanagement facilities' for details):
Category 1: Activities requiring open sites or ancillary open areas (involving biological treatment)Category 2: Activities requiring open sites or ancillary open areas (not involving biological treatment)Category 3: Activities requiring enclosed industrial premises (small scale)Category 4: Activities requiring enclosed industrial premises (large scale)Category 5: Activities requiring enclosed building with stack (small scale)Category 6: Activities requiring enclosed building with stack (large scale)Category 7: Landfilling
20 The suitability of sites and areas was assessed using a number of criteria set out in national planning policy(12).The framework for this study is therefore adapted from Annex E of Planning Policy Statement 10(13).
12 ODPM (2005) Planning Policy Statement 10: Planning for Sustainable Waste Management.13 The detailed criteria shown in Annex E of PPS10 is shown in Extract from PPS10 - Site suitability criteria. Two criteria from Annex E have been 'scoped out' for
the purposes of this assessment. 'Litter' can be a concern at some facilities (but this issue is dealt with at planning application stage if necessary). 'Land instability'as a criteria has also been 'scoped out'. Areas liable to be affected by land instability are not normally suitable for waste uses. However, Hampshire does not havea history of underground mining or industrial areas located on previous extraction sites/ eroding coastline etc.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)20
21 Site information was gathered using GIS (Geographical Information Systems) and information providedwith the site nomination and comments received from previous consultation. National policy also statessites and areas should be assessed for the cumulative effect of previous waste facilities on the well-beingof the local community, including any significant adverse impacts on environmental quality, social cohesionand inclusion or economic potential. Planning history for the sites was therefore considered where relevant.
This assessment process was used to suggest the broad waste management categories which would be suitableon each of the sites (and similarly those which would be unsuitable). For example, sites within sensitivelandscape settings should not be considered for activities within large scale buildings. It is also unlikely thatsites close to sensitive habitats would be suitable for activities requiring open sites as it is more difficult tocontrol dust emissions and noise at such sites.

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)24
Stages 7 & 8: Further appraisal & next steps
22 Following this site suitability assessment potential sites were subject to further 'testing' (except for thosewhich were considered less suitable and 'ruled out'). From this 'short list' further appraisal was required forany potential site identified in the Hampshire Minerals and Waste Plan. This further appraisal seeks todemonstrate that these sites are considered 'sustainable' when considered against other alternative sites.Following the assessment process which has been reported in this study therefore, sites considered to havesignificant potential to meet future waste management needs will be appraised against a set of factors. Thesefactors are set out in an established appraisal framework known as Integrated Sustainability Appraisal(ISA) which uses a set of agreed criteria and objectives. For more details about how sites will be subjectto ISA, see Hampshire County Council (2010)Hampshire Minerals and Waste Plan Draft Integrated SustainabilityAppraisal Scoping Report (Revised).
The Sustainability Appraisal Scoping Report includes a set of objectives and criteria against which reasonablepolicy options will be appraised. There are similarities between these criteria and the site assessmentmethodology used in this study (see Table 2 ' Environmental and amenity criteria considered when assessingthe suitability of sites and areas (based on Planning Policy Statement (PPS) 10 Annex E).'). This suggests thatthe assessments in this study have already begun to satisfy some of the appraisal requirements, and the findingscan be used to inform the more detailed ISA process at the next stage.
23 Evaluation of the sites against the factors will help to identify any significant effects or potential enhancementopportunities that the site may have, prior to its inclusion in the Plan. Other assessment tools which caninform this decision-making are transport assessment, landscape impact assessment and Strategic flood RiskAssessment.
24 Another important tool for assessing the suitability of plans isHabitats Regulations Assessment (HRA).This is a legal requirement for all land-use plans will be undertaken prior to the inclusion of any sites andareas in the final Hampshire Minerals & Waste Plan. The first stage of this process is the preparation of aScreening Assessment which reports any 'likely significant effects' of the potential sites considered for theinclusion in a Plan. Several sites and areas assessed in this study are within 2.5 km of European natureconservation designations. Significant effects on these designated sites may be likely (or uncertain) for thoseidentified sites within 2.5 km, and thus it is likely that these will be flagged up in the Screening Assessment(14).
NOTE: If any of the sites are eventually included in the Hampshire Minerals & Waste Plan, proposals wouldneed to obtain planning permission and the necessary consents to allow development to proceed. Includinga site in the Plan would help provide a 'steer' for those considering planning applications, by demonstratingthat the site can be developed in principle during the plan period, and it would help satisfy identified need.
14 Different types of impacts can travel different distances however, and nature conservation sites which are sensitive to changes in hydrology or contamination viawater pathways could require greater distances. This will be explored in more detail in the Screening Report.
25Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Study Limitations
25 The methodology and approach used for this study has provided a clear framework for assessing sites.However, it is useful to recognise the limitations of the approach, for example:
Criteria b) and i) from PPS10 Annex E were 'scoped out' from the assessment of site suitabilityassessment (see Table 2 ' Environmental and amenity criteria considered when assessing the suitabilityof sites and areas (based on Planning Policy Statement (PPS) 10 Annex E).').The available information on the assessed sites is variable, some sites have more information ondeliverability issues than others.The information about the potential available capacity for existing sites (see Section 5 'Existing sitesnominated for extension') are judgements based on the limited information available. Accurateassessments of capacity are only likely to be undertaken at the planning application level, when moredetailed information would be made available.Use of standardised ‘buffers’ (i.e. distances from sites) when interrogating GIS data is crude, andrequires application of local knowledge.A number of smaller scale facilities will be needed in Hampshire, such as waste transfer and recyclingsites. However, due to their size and nature, these sites are unlikely to be identified specificallyconsidering the strategic nature of the plan. Only sites greater than 1 hectare have typically beenincluded in the site selection process (unless there is a specialised facility being promoted on thatparticular site due to its unique characteristics).
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)26
Section 3 Deliverability considerations
26 It is important to demonstrate that there are not regulatory or other barriers to the delivery of potentialsites. This study therefore considers sites against 'deliverability criteria' (e.g. landownership, access, planninghistory, size etc.); all of which may have a bearing on whether or not the site is deliverable as a location forwaste management. It is important to avoid unrealistic assumptions on the prospects for the developmentof waste management facilities, or of particular sites or areas. Ownership constraints are identified forexample because of the concern that sites may not in reality come forward for waste management withoutwilling land owners.
27 Where there are recognised constraints to the deliverability of development, it is also important to specifyhow these issues could be overcome. This could include the ‘lead in’ times that may arise from newinfrastructure required to service sites, which although capable of resolution towards the end of the planperiod, could affect deliverability in the shorter term.
28 The type or types of waste management facility that would be appropriately located on an allocated site orin the allocated area should be identified where possible. Government guidance(15) explains that plansshould avoid unnecessary prescription, particularly where this could stifle innovation in line with the wastehierarchy. It states prescription could be justified where necessary however to ensure;
the delivery of the plan in line with national planning policy or the delivery of facilities required by theMunicipal Waste Management Strategy;the suitable use of sites given their location or other constraints, i.e a site may be suitable for only oneparticular type of waste management facility.
29 Facilities in Hampshire tend to be located on previously developed land, which have had a range of formeruses. For example, a large majority of the facilities in Portsmouth, Southampton and Rushmoor are onindustrial sites/ estates. By contrast, Hart, Eastleigh and Basingstoke & Deane currently have a lowproportion of existing facilities in such locations.
30 Marchwood Energy fromWaste Facility is located on a former power station. Facilities are also commonlylocated on former aggregate workings, such as the waste transfer facility at the Farlington Redoubt formerchalk quarry. Facilities are also located on former Ministry of Defence sites (such as the waste transferfacility at Fawley), and former shipyards (such as construction waste recycling at Willments shipyard,Woolston).
31 In terms of site location, it is clear that existing facilities are clustered along key road transport routes andjunctions in Hampshire (notably the M3, A303, A3 and M27). In terms of site size, any sites smaller than1 hectare have been 'ruled out' predominantly on economic viability grounds (see appendix 4). However,there are a small number of sites which are smaller than 1 hectare which have been included as potentialallocations due to the following reasons:
Nomination site although smaller than 1 hectare, is part of a wider business/ industrial area;Site has current or existing industrial/ waste uses undertaken on it;Site is located away from housing and other sensitive receptors;Site has key transport access such as a rail link or direct access onto the minerals and waste routenetwork.

27Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Section 4 Key Findings
Existing site extensions
32 It is recognised that site extensions could be a source of additional waste management capacity. Indeed,waste planning authorities should identify sites and areas suitable for new or enhanced waste managementfacilities.
33 Section 5 illustrates that a range of existing operations have been nominated by the waste industry, includinga number with potential for enhancement or further expansion. As explained previously, it is important toconsider the extent to which extensions to existing and consented waste management capacity not yetoperational would satisfy identified waste management needs. The existing sites in section 5 illustrate howthe capacity of existing sites may potentially be maximised. Most of the nominated sites have been identifiedfor their potential to increase the activities currently operating within the existing site. For instance, severalnominees expressed the importance of gaining permanent permission, as this can enable operators to justifyincreased investment at the site (thus improving its long term viability). In particular, long life, if notpermanent, facilities are needed to attract sufficient investment to enable the manufacture of recycledaggregates to the high standards required for use in construction.
34 A number of operators of existing landfill operations and/or former mineral extraction operations haveidentified the potential to accommodate generic waste management uses and aggregate recycling operationsat these locations. An important consideration in this regard is that mineral or landfill sites which arerestored or are due to be restored, are not included under the definition of previously developed land. Thissuggests that 'existing' landfill and extraction sites should not be considered in the same way as other 'existing'waste management sites for policy purposes.
35 The information obtained about nominated existing operations varies however, and further evidence wouldbe required to support any assumptions about how extending existing capacity might meet identified needs.In particular, further information would be required on the estimated additional capacity such sites couldprovide. Additional capacity does not necessarily require additional built development however, and someoperators identified opportunities to reconfigure sites within the existing footprint of the operation (subjectto gaining the necessary permissions). Such reconfiguration may increase the ability to handle a greatervolume of waste due to the use of more advanced technologies or more efficient processes.
36 When considering maximising capacity at existing operations, it is important not to assume that because aparticular area has hosted, or hosts, waste disposal facilities it is appropriate or acceptable to add to theseor extend their life. It is important to consider the cumulative effect of previous waste disposal facilities ona community’s wellbeing. Indeed a number of existing minerals and waste sites are poorly located in relationto the road network, and those sites considered unsuitable for increased extension (prior to considering anyplanning application) have been identified in section 5. Indeed, some of the existing sites nominated forextensions have since been subject to planning applications and have either been refused or permitted.
37 Elsewhere this study identifies sites which are adjacent to existing waste management facilities, indicatingpotential opportunities for existing operations to expand onto nearby land. An example is Land East &West of Alton MRF, Holyborne (A31) (nominations EHS 026/ 030). Such sites are not considered'extensions' for the purposes of this study, as they are not included within the footprint of the adjacentexisting waste management facilities. It is noted however, that opportunities exist to maximise wastemanagement provision at proven suitable locations for waste management activities, as in the case of Holybornewhere Alton Materials Recovery Facility is located.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)28
38 Section 5 illustrates Hampshire's existing network of waste management infrastructure. The operationslisted however are only those which have been nominated, and Hampshire hosts many more facilities(16).The nominated existing sites in this study could be referred to therefore as evidence in support of anyparticular policy to maximise capacity at existing sites (in preference over new sites). The study indicatesthat a number of sites would be considered suitable for additional or enhanced waste management activitiesin principle (subject to the consideration of any planning application). Based on the crude assessment insection 5, examples of such sites are as follows (including existing category):
i. Bury Farm (Marchwood Quarry), Marchwood (Category 1: Activities requiring large sites)ii. Warren Farm and Downend Quarry, near Fareham (Category 1: Activities requiring large open sites)iii. Charity Farm, Fareham (Category 2: Activities requiring sites with buildings, plant and ancillary open areas)iv. Former Marchwood Incinerator site, Bury Road, Marchwood (Category 3: Activities requiring enclosed
industrial premises (small scale))
39 Other approaches to how this evidence on existing sites may be used to inform policy are set out in thebox below.
Policy recommendations
The study has identified a number of options to provide extensions to existing waste management facilities.
The HMWP should include a policy to enable sustainable management of waste through provision of additionalcapacity at suitable existing waste management sites (included in Policies 26 & 28).
40 Finally, another planning issue which relates to existing sites is 'safeguarding'. This seeks to provide protectionfor facilities against encroachment by incompatible development, or indeed the site being lost to competingland uses. Based on evidence about existing sites (their capacity, potential to expand, acceptability etc), astudy has been prepared which looks at the criteria which could be applied to existing sites to decide whetherthey should be safeguarded (i.e protected for future waste management activity), or appropriate to releasefor alternative uses(17).
Sites allocated for employment uses
41 As shown in section 6, a number of sites allocated for employment uses in Local Plans have been nominatedfor their potential to host waste management facilities in Hampshire. Whilst not all of these sites arebrownfield (i.e. previously developed), the allocation for employment uses suggests a presumption in favourof development in those locations. The sites are considered developable (and thus deliverable) in principletherefore. As explained in section 6, sites currently allocated for employment uses can often be appropriateas locations for waste management development- particularly for smaller enclosed development and wastetransfer stations. Allocations in Local Plans can be restricted to particular types of employment uses however,such as office development (for example in the case of Clark's Farm (site nomination HRT 024)). This maylimit the policy support for industrial-type waste management development potentially provided by allocatedemployment sites.
16 The existing capacity provided by waste management facilities in Hampshire is described in The Assessment of Need for waste Management Uses: Waste Data Summary(Hampshire County Council).
17 Minerals & Waste Safeguarding Study.
29Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
42 Another study has been prepared which assesses the suitability of industrial estates in Hampshire to hostwaste management facilities(18). This study further demonstrates that Hampshire has a range of suitableand available industrial/ employment land which could potentially accommodate such development facilities.Industrial and employment sites also provide opportunities to co-locate waste management withcomplementary activities (and thus reduce the amount of materials transported around the county). It isnot feasible to locate all types of waste development on industrial estates however (notably activities requiringlarge open sites such as composting, which are more appropriately located further away from neighbouringland uses such as residential).
43 Finally, it should be recognised that certain allocated employment sites and industrial areas exist as a resultof historic and established land uses but they may not necessarily be the most sustainable locations. Forexample, there are sites with established employment uses that are now surrounded by residential developmentor other sensitive receptors. Whilst permission for waste management activities may be applied for on suchsites, it is not necessarily appropriate to intentionally plan to locate such activities at these locations. Indeed,the current Minerals & Waste Core Strategy (2007) states that large waste management sites should only bepermitted in countryside locations on ‘windfall’ (e.g. unexpectedly available) brownfield land with goodaccess to the main highway network.
44 The following nominated sites from section 6 are examples of those considered to have potential foraccommodating industrial-type waste management uses (mainly due to their size and location). It isrecommended that these sites are subject to further appraisal (see option 2 below):
i. Site Adjacent to Waste Water Treatment Works, Eastleighii. Little Park Farm Road, Segensworth (also adjacent site FHM 012)iii. Hartland Park & adjacent land, Pyestock Hilliv. Land Adjacent to Military Road, Royal Naval Dockyard, Portsmouthv. Land East of Abbey Park Industrial Estate, Romsey
Policy recommendations
The study into the suitability of industrial areas in Hampshire for waste management facilities has identifieda range of suitable industrial/employment land across Hampshire for provision of new waste managementfacilities.
The HMWP should include a policy to enable use of suitable land for waste management purposes (includedin Policy 28)
Other nominated sites for further appraisal
45 Section 7 includes a range of sites across each of the administrative (district) areas in Hampshire nominatedfor their potential to host waste management facilities. Most of the sites were nominated by landownersor prospective site operators which illustrates commercial interest in these locations. Not all of the nominatedsites are brownfield land, and most are in more rural locations or land which has not previously beendeveloped. The suitability of these undeveloped sites for waste management is instead based on opportunitiesprovided by their strategic location, proximity to markets (urban areas), opportunities for co-location withexisting waste management operations, or opportunities to transport materials by rail or sea. Examples ofthese sites are discussed below.
18 The Suitability of Industrial Areas for Waste Management in Hampshire.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)30
46 Whilst the general expectation is to encourage waste management close to its generation source, it shouldbe recognised that smaller scale waste uses should not be precluded from rural areas. Indeed, the wastemanagement needs of rural areas will generally be met by smaller, more community-based facilities. Thereuse of previously developed land includes the reuse of redundant agricultural and forestry buildings(including their curtilages)(19). In summary, certain waste management activities which are comparable toagricultural practices may suitably be located in those more rural locations. Such activities can support farmdiversification and provide products for environmental or agricultural benefit, as well as low-carbon energywhich can support the rural economy(20).
47 Section 7 illustrates that locations for waste management activity can often be opportunistic, in that theydepend on the availability of vacant land which is considered feasible for development for the waste industry.The nominated sites suggest the types of land uses in Hampshire which the industry considers have potentialto host waste management uses. These uses include: vehicle depots; redundant agricultural land and buildings;brownfield sites at major transport junctions; rail sidings (see below); former MoD land; and land at thefringes of industrial estates. The range of land use types nominated is likely to reflect the different locationalneeds of different waste management activities (as demonstrated by the development categories suggestedin this study (see Appendix 2).
48 The site assessments shown in section 7 reveal that there are some constraints on what the nominated sitescould suitably be used for. This is typically due to the sites' surrounding land uses and proximity to sensitivereceptors (such as residential areas). Site size is another key consideration, and the findings suggest thatthe majority of sites are less than three hectares in area (i.e. the indicative land size required for larger scalewaste management facilities). Indeed, whilst a number of sites are well-located in terms of their proximityto urban areas, the deliverability and viability of developing some of these for waste management usesremains uncertain. The key deliverability issues for each of the nominated sites are set out in section 7, andmainly relate to the need to demonstrate how environmental constraints can be appropriately managed ormitigated against. Issues related to access and transport restrictions; ecological sensitivities; and the potentialfor incompatible neighbouring land uses in future were identified for many of the sites.
49 Sites with potential to accommodate a range of different types and sizes of waste management facilitiesshould ideally be identified, in order to provide flexibility for industry in response to changing wastemanagement needs. From the initial site assessment and approach to categorisation(21) it is evident that thenominated sites in section 6 have potential to provide opportunities for each of the categories. Some sitescover less than 1 hectare and are arguably not worth identification for planning purposes. However, insome cases these sites are in isolated locations (away from sensitive receptors) and could provide opportunitiesto accommodate waste management activities for handling specialist wastes. Depending on identified wastemanagement needs, it may be appropriate to safeguard these sites against competing land uses. Examplesof these sites from section 7 include:
i. Spaniard Inn, Liphookii. Withys Meadow, Dutton Lane, Eastleighiii. Mattingley Depot, Heckfieldiv. Hydro Chafer site, Larkwhistle Road, Micheldever
19 This may include the demolition of the building to make way for an ‘open air’ activity, demolition and rebuilding of the building or alteration of the building.20 For example see Defra (2010) Accelerating the Uptake of Anaerobic Digestion in England: an Implementation Plan (Defra Publications: London).21 See Broad categories of waste management facilities
31Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
50 It may also be appropriate to identify sites which present opportunities for the transhipment of wastematerials by rail (due to their proximity to rail sidings). Based on the assessments in section 7, the followingsites offer such opportunities (subject to further investigation):
i. Land East & West of Alton MRFii. Site Adjacent to Waste Water Treatment Works, Eastleighiii. Land at Dutton Lane, Eastleighiv. Land South of Railway, Segensworthv. Totton Yardvi. Fratton Freight site, Portsmouthvii. Gold Lane site off Government Road, Aldershotviii. Associated British Port Land, Southampton Docks area near Millbrookix. Micheldever Station
51 The sites in Southampton's Western Docks (ABP land) have been nominated and shown in section 7.Southampton’s Core Strategy (adopted January 2010) safeguards the port for port related development.To conform to this policy, any proposals to accept waste materials (e.g. for energy recovery) should betransported predominately by ship. This requirement will also limit the impact of such a plant onSouthampton’s road network. It is likely that a preference for land transport to import materials will be railbased. Waste management activity which is not port-related is unlikely to be supported in the WesternDocks due to the safeguarding of this land in Southampton's plan(22)
52 Finally, notwithstanding the geographic distribution of these potential site opportunities, it is recognisedthat the two key market areas for waste management infrastructure are the urban settlements in the northand south of Hampshire. As discussed below, there is potential to accommodate additional wastemanagement needs to support the growth in the South Hampshire area through planned developmentareas. Nominated sites in section 7 may also be able to provide additional waste management capacity forSouth Hampshire. It is important to recognise however these sites may be suitable for other competingland uses. Examples of these sites include;
i. Sites at Redbridge Lane, Nursling, Southamptonii. Simonds Hill, West Hulbert (Havant)iii. Land at Hazelton Farm, near Horndean
53 In the north of the county, the main market areas for waste management facilities are the urban areas ofFarnborough and Aldershot, Basingstoke and Andover. In addition to the various industrial areas andemployment allocations which have been identified elsewhere(23), nominated sites in section 7 may also beable to provide additional waste management capacity for the North Hampshire area, for example:
i. Peak Copse, Dummerii. Land Adjacent to Energy Recovery Facility, Chinehamiii. Land adjacent to Apsley Farm, near Andoveriv. Land off Foxcotte Lane, Andover
54 The box below sets out how this evidence on nominated sites has been used to develop options and informthe preparation of the Plan
22 Southampton City Council's Core Strategy (policy CS 9 Port of Southampton).23 The Suitability of Industrial Areas for Waste Management in Hampshire.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)32
Policy recommendations
The study has demonstrated the availability of sites in the North and South of Hampshire that provideopportunities to accommodate a range of different types and sizes of waste facilities.
The HMWP should include policies to support new waste development on existing and new sites (includedin Policy 26).
Sites in areas of planned development
55 It is recognised that population growth in Hampshire will place further pressure on land around existingareas of development, particularly in the planned growth areas of South Hampshire and North EastHampshire. This is likely to result in increasing competition for sites that might be needed for wastemanagement uses. Indeed, Hampshire’s adopted Minerals & Waste Core Strategy (2007) states that all areasof major new development should accommodate an appropriate proportion of the waste managementcapacity for recycling, composting or recovery and treatment. As explained in section 8, five identifiedplanned development areas have been identified as having potential to accommodate supporting wastemanagement infrastructure. Prior to detailed information on site layout and design being available therefore,most of these sites could only be identified as broad locations for waste facilities. Locating waste managementdevelopment as part of planned new development provides the opportunity to ensure such supportinginfrastructure is integral to the 'master planning' of the new settlements and thus the community benefitsof products (including energy) recovered from waste management activities can be be maximised.
Policy recommendations
The HMWP should include a policy to enable waste development as part of planned new development areas(included in Policy 28).
Household Waste Recycling Centres
56 The approach used in this study has been to categorise different waste management activities by theirdevelopment requirements. Notwithstanding this approach, it is recognised that HouseholdWaste RecyclingCentres (HWRCs) have specific locational requirements which are unique to other facility types. The mainissue is the need for these sites to be accessible by the public and able to accommodate higher numbers ofvehicles entering the site than other facilities. Indeed, several sites were nominated specifically for theirpotential to accommodate an HWRC. For example, plans to relocate an HWRC to a site at Dock Gate 20in Southampton from the Town Depot site has now been built and was opened in December 2011.
33Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
57 HWRCs are also unique in that they are operated as municipal facilities (i.e on behalf of the public sector)(24).There is more certainty therefore for planning authorities about where new locations for such facilities willbe sought. The demand for new HWRCs in certain locations in Hampshire will be informed by a ServiceReview undertaken in 2010-11. This will review the entire HWRC network in Hampshire and assess thecatchment areas for the existing HWRCs. This will help identify parts of Hampshire considered 'servicegaps', and a site search (which may be informed by this evidence study) would be undertaken to identifypriority areas and potential new locations for HWRCs. It may be the case that particular existing HWRCsneed to be relocated (as in the case of TownDepot HWRC in Southampton). Several HWRCs in Hampshireare located on industrial estates and it is likely that accessible previously developed sites (minimum of 0.6hectares) would need to be identified if new locations were required following the Service Review.
Policy recommendations
The study has identified a range of sites suitable to accommodate newHWRCs, particularly in identified servicegap areas, or where HWRCs need to be re-located.
The HMWP should safeguard existing HWRC sites and include a policy to enable new sites to be established(included in Policies 25 and 28 respectively).
Sites nominated for disposal to land
58 Currently about 82% of Hampshire's non-hazardous waste is diverted from landfill however there will bea continued, but diminishing role for landfill. It is likely that the amount of waste going to landfill will bevery limited in quantity and biodegradable content by the end of the plan period however it is still necessaryto make provision for the limited amount of non-recoverable waste which requires disposal to land(25).Hampshire has very limited opportunities to accommodate landfill sites due to its environmental constraintsand other characteristics. The areas considered and their suitability for landfill is explained in more detailelsewhere (26). The areas deemed most suitable are highlighted in section 9.
59 The Assessment of Need for Waste Management Facilities:Hampshire Landfill and Surcharging Report lists a numberof nominations for additional landfill capacity (see category 9: Activities requiring landfill void). Most of thesenominations were based on associated nominations to extract mineral at those locations (i.e. to provide avoid capacity). For planning purposes however it is not appropriate to consider the opportunities at thosesites, particularly where mineral extraction is not supported. Further, not all sand and gravel sites are suitablefor restoration by landfill because of hydro-geological conditions, access and other environmental protectionreasons.
60 One existing landfill site listed in section 9 has been considered suitable in principle for landfill withnon-hazardous waste: Squabb Wood (nomination code TTV 027). The viability of surcharging on top of theexisting void at SquabbWood is still to be determined (the alternative option is to seek to extend the existingsite). The opportunity at Squabb Wood would be subject to further appraisal and the ability to satisfyspecific environmental protection criteria (and ultimately a planning application). Land at Verwood Road(Purple Haze, Ringwood Forest - site NFT 011) has also been identified for its potential to provide non-hazardouslandfill capacity in the longer term, if sand and gravel extraction occurs in this proposed area.
24 There is a network of HWRCs in Hampshire (currently 24 HWRCs in Hampshire, and one in both Southampton and Portsmouth).25 Assessment of Need for Waste Management Facilities: Waste Data Summary Report.26 Assessment of need for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire: Landfill and Surcharging Report
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)34
61 It is estimated that the majority of inert waste which is not recycled or recovered in another way, will beused to restore mineral workings or used in civil engineering and other infrastructure projects, preferablyat the site of production. In sum, evidence indicates that there is a surplus in void capacity for inert wastematerials and therefore no requirement to actively promote new inert landfill sites(27).
Policy recommendations
Only one existing site has been considered suitable in principle for additional landfill, highlighting the difficultyin finding unconstrained and suitable sites in Hampshire.
Together with existing landfill void capacity, the site is expected to provide sufficient capacity for landfillrequirements over the plan period.
The HMWP should include a policy to provide for limited amount of landfill required in Hampshire andreflect the policy prescription against landfill as a suitable waste treatment option (included in Policy 32).
Sites considered less suitable
62 Finally, a proportion of sites identified were considered less suitable ('ruled out') early in the process asexplained in the methodology and shown in Appendix 4. The fact that these sites have been eliminatedfrom any further appraisal process does not preclude them from being considered for waste managementactivity in future, if an applicant wished to pursue a proposal. It is however considered inappropriate toidentify these sites as potential opportunities, as many are considered to have major constraints on futurewaste management development. Whilst these less suitable sites are considered 'unreasonable options',Appendix 4 demonstrates that a range of different sites have been considered, and the reasons for theirunsuitability. The main reasons sites were considered undeliverable relate to: the physical constraints ondevelopment (e.g the site is less than 0.5 hectare); the lack of suitable access; incompatible neighbouringland uses; a history of poor management of the sites; and lack of interest from the waste industry. Further,a number of these nominated sites have subsequently been subject to planning applications for other uses(such as residential or mixed-use development), and thus are no longer deliverable for waste managementactivity.

35Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Section 5 Existing sites nominated for extension
63 Waste planning authorities are required to plan for the delivery of sites and areas suitable for wastemanagement to fill the 'capacity gap' between existing and required waste management capacity. This gapmay increase in the longer term as existing facilities reach the end of their useful lives. A number of'time-limited' recycling and composting sites have been nominated for instance which may be suitable forpermanent operation. It is therefore important to consider the extent to which existing, and consentedwaste management capacity not yet operational would satisfy identified needs. Sites were nominated byowners and operators indicating plans or aspirations to extend sites in terms of:
footprint (i.e. size) (potential to accommodate additional waste infrastructure on site)the operations which were taking place at the site (i.e. incorporate additional activities onsite)(28).the life of the operation (i.e. potential to extend time-bound permissions, or gain permanentpermission)
64 The nominated sites are set out in the following tables(29):
Table 3 lists sites potential to increase waste management capacity (Excluding aggregaterecycling and landfill)(30) nominated as having potential to increase capacity for these uses.Table 4 lists sites permitted for existing aggregate recycling operations with potential to increaseaggregate recycling capacity (including extensions to time, expansion of site, aspiration for sitepermanency etc).Table 5 lists sites permitted for existing aggregate recycling operations with potential to diversifywaste management operationsTable 6 identifies sites permitted for other minerals and waste sites with potential to diversifyoperations (inc existing landfill operations, former mineral extraction operations etc)
The final column in each of the tables provides a broad indication of whether the nominated sites are consideredto have potential to provide additional waste management capacity. This judgement has been illustrated usingthe symbols shown below.
NOTE: the nominated existing sites included in this study would be required to gain the necessary licenses and permissions priorto any extensions (including varying conditions attached to permissions). The assessment undertaken below is intendedonly to demonstrate the prospect of maximising existing waste management infrastructure to provide futurecapacity. This is discussed further in Section 4 'Key Findings'.
●Site considered to have limited or no potential to provide additional capacity
●●Potential to provide additional capacity is considered uncertain (e.g dependent on overcomingsite constraints)
●●●Site considered to have potential to provide additional capacity (subject to detailed assessment)
28 This may include the potential to handle increased volumes of waste on site. For example, operators may seek to vary conditions to allow increased lorry movements(and thus accept greater volumes of waste), or receive different types of waste.
29 This section excludes nominations for increasing landfill capacity (see Section 9 'Sites nominated for disposal to land').30 Includes the recycling, composting, processing, and recovery of all wastes, plus waste storage and transfer.

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)62
Section 6 Nominated sites currently allocated for employment uses
72 As part of the site search and nomination process, a number of sites were identified which are located withinexisting employment and industrial areas. The adopted Hampshire Minerals & Waste Core Strategy providespolicy support for waste management developments (excluding landfill) on employment land, preferablyco-located with complementary activities (see policy DC13). 'Employment land' consists of both developedand undeveloped land (the latter includes land which is undeveloped currently, but is allocated for employmentuses in Local Plans). Further, guidance on preparing waste plans(31)explains that waste management needsare changing, and most activities are now suitable for industrial locations.
73 Certain waste management activities, often housed in enclosed industrial premises, can fall within the generalindustrial class in the Use Classes Order(32). It is therefore feasible that the built development which hostsindustrial operations could be adapted and modified to host waste management activities (subject to thenecessary permission and licences). Indeed, it is recognised that some of the best opportunities for drivingwaste management up the waste hierarchy are likely to exist through on-site management of Commercial& Industrial (C&I), Construction & Demolition (C&D) and agricultural wastes.
74 Based on the characteristics of the industrial locations illustrated by the site nominations below, it is likelythat such sites would be more suitable for development categories 3-6 (activities requiring enclosed industrialpremises (small or large scale depending on the site) and activities requiring an enclosed building with stack(small and large scale depending on the site).
75 The following sites are those specifically nominated which are formerly allocated as employment land, orare located on industrial sites in Hampshire(33). There are also a number of sites which lie adjacent toemployment and industrial land, and as a result have strong associations with industrial uses which havebeen included within this section, despite the fact they do not strictly lie on allocated employment or industrialland.
In addition to the nominated sites included in this section, a study has been prepared to demonstratethe industrial and employment areas inHampshire which are deemedmost suitable for waste uses(34).Please consult this accompanying study for further information about the industrial estatesmentionedbelow and the assessment of their suitability as a general location for waste management facilities.
31 DCLG (2006) Planning for Sustainable Waste Management: Companion Guide to Planning Policy Statement 10.32 The Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987. SI 1987 No. 76433 Two nominated sites which, although either being allocated for employment or existing on industrial estates, have not been included within this section due to the
nature of the site being suited to a specific industry, for example rail sidings. See NFT 037 Totton Yard and PCC 005 Fratton Freight Site.34 The Suitability of Industrial Areas for Waste Management in Hampshire.

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Potential impacts on adjacent historic character would need to be avoided.ii. The proximity to residential properties and impacts on amenity are key considerations.iii. Land ownership is to be determined.iv. Site has good access and is well screened.v. Site has good connections to strategic road network.
Nomination
76 The site was nominated in November 2005.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)64
Site history & background
77 The nominated site lies within Kingsclere Park a generally well occupied and well presented commercialsite covering an area of approximately 2.4ha. Kingsclere Park is allocated for employment uses withinBasingstoke and Deane's Local Plan, and is northwest of Kingsclere historic village. The nominated sitecovers an area of approximately 0.54ha and lies within an area which is well screened from surroundinghighways by vegetation.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. This is due to the general character of the existing infrastructure and screening of the site. Proposalsfor such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above. The suitability of this site forother larger scale development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the proximityto residential properties, site size and historic character etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. The strategic location of this site in relation to rail / road access should be maximised when consideringappropriate waste uses on this site.
ii. Any potential air pollution or hydrological issues likely to affect the River Itchen (SAC) need to be consideredas part of the Habitats Regulations Assessment process.
iii. Measures to avoid water pollution potentially arising through percolation into the ground or surface run-offmay be necessary (depending on type of facility).
iv. Chickenhall Lane/ Bishopstoke Road and the A335 are already heavily congested and a Transport Assessmentis likely to be required containing traffic-flow data for these routes. Modelling of the Chickenhall Lane/Bishopstoke Road roundabout is also likely to be required.
v. It is yet to be determined as to whether proposals would be acceptable in the absence of the link-road.
35 (saved policy 112.E in the Eastleigh Borough Council Local Plan Review. Adopted May 2006 (Special Policy Area)
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)66
vi. The capacity of the Itchen floodplain should be maintained.vii. The Aerodrome Safeguarding Zone will have implications for the type of waste uses which could be
developed (including the design and operation).
Nomination
78 This site was nominated in 2006 by Southern Water. It is located south of the Chickenhall Waste WaterTreatment Works.
Site history & background
79 The site is owned by Prysmian and is vacant and undeveloped. The site is located to the south of ChickenhallLane and is adjacent to a large industrial estate (Tower Industrial Estate). The potential for locating wasteuses on this site have been considered previously. This site is located in Eastleigh and therefore strategicallylocated to serve the urban populations of South Hampshire. The potential for rail access also means thissite provides an opportunity to transport material by sustainable means. The size of the site, and its proximityto heat and power demand (e.g. the neighbouring industrial uses) may also justify a strategic facility at thissite. There may be an opportunity to coordinate the development of an energy-from-waste facility with thewider redevelopment of the Riverside employment area.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 3-5.The ability to address the issues identified above would determine the acceptable uses. An enclosed wastefacility is likely to be more acceptable due to the proximity to sensitive habitats. The suitability of this site forother development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (particularly any proposals for alarge building with a stack, due to the proximity to the airport).
CommentsAssessment criteria
Protection of waterresources
Site lies on a secondary aquifer.Flood zones 2 and 3 lie adjacent to the site on the eastern boundary.
Visual intrusion Potential to enhance the landscape from nearby critical viewpoints, such as the Itchen Way footpathand from more distant vantage points.Landscape Type: River Valley Floor / Settlement and Landscape Character Area: Itchen Valley (3c)
Nature conservation Very close (100m) from River Itchen SAC/ SSSI.Local records of otter and slow worm. Other potential species would be reptiles, water vole.
Historic environment andbuilt heritage
Roman Building recorded in the adjacent waste water treatment works.
Traffic & access Located to the southern most end of Chickenhall Lane.Suitable road access is presently problematic; the Strategic Road Network (M3) is approximately 3.5kmfrom the site.The accident record at this site should be taken into consideration, also capacity improvements arelikely to be needed along Bishopstoke Road to mitigate against the impact of traffic increases.Capacity assessments carried out indicate that the Chickenhall Lane/B3037 – Bishopstoke Road miniroundabout is nearing capacity.Not currently rail-connected. Potential for rail access to be assessed.
67Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
CommentsAssessment criteria

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Access into the site is the main issue with regards to further development of this site. A feasible solutionto improve access/ provide an alternative access will require investigation.
ii. The proximity to residential properties on Dutton Lane and potential impacts on amenity are keyconsiderations.
iii. The potential use of rail sidings warrants further investigation.iv. Any potential impacts on the River Itchen need to be considered as part of the Habitats Regulations
Assessment process.v. The Aerodrome Safeguarding Zone may restrict the type of waste uses which could be developed (including
the design and operation).vi. Potential co-location opportunities (see EHS020 Withys Meadow).vii. Potential to deliver waste uses without significantly altering the current form and scale of the existing site
use.

Nomination
80 The site was identified by Hampshire County Council in 2009, and has also been promoted by the privatesector. This site has previously been considered for an Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC). It islikely that enclosed waste uses would be more appropriate considering the exposed nature of the site.
Site history & background
81 The site is located within an industrial area adjacent to the railway off Dutton Lane. The site is to be clearedexcept for a 6 bay vehicle workshop and diesel storage tanks. The site is currently being leased to a deliveryand collection company, whilst Network Rail are the freeholder of the site. The site is currently occupiedby modern warehouses and storage areas.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. This is due to the surrounding industrial area and existing built infrastructure on the site. Proposalsfor such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above. The suitability of this site forother enclosed development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the proximityto residential properties and access issues etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Access into the site is the main issue with regards to further development of this site. A feasible solutionto improve access to the site is needed to support any future proposals for waste uses. One option couldbe improvement of the existing bridge beneath the railway line (subject to agreement from Network Railand Hampshire County Council). Road access would be through Segensworth West Industrial Estate, andwill also need to consider transport impacts in the wider road network.
ii. A habitat survey likely to be required prior to any development (great crested newts can utilise habitat upto 500m from waterbody).
iii. Any suitable facility would require appropriate siting, with suitable mitigation to avoid damage/encroachment/ pollution of surrounding woodland or any protected species.
iv. The feasibility of rail access is questionable- the costs and land required to make a siding have been judgednot viable.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)74
v. A small proportion of the site is in Winchester City Council's administrative area, and it is important thata comprehensive and coordinated approach is taken.
vi. Due to the multiple ownership, some land assembly may be necessary depending on the extent of anyproposals.
vii. Any opportunities to increase tree cover to improve biodiversity linkages (between woodland areas) shouldbe maximised. Enhancements to the existing woodland edge as part of any proposal would be supported.
Nomination
84 There is substantial interest in developing this site for waste uses, owing to its size and strategic location.Waste operators have expressed their interest in possible uses. The site is under multiple landownership.
Site history & background
85 Little Park Farm is a low lying, partially wooded site which is overlooked by the M27 motorway. The siteis located to the north of Segensworth West industrial area in Park Gate, between the motorway and therailway line. Site straddles the boundary between Winchester and Fareham districts. The site is largelyvacant, although there is currently some housing and dog boarding kennels located on part of the site.
86 The site is a 'greenfield' site in an urban area. It is allocated as employment land (office, light and generalindustry, warehousing / storage(38) but not subject to existing permission. There are serious doubts regardingthe developability for B1, B2 or B8 uses due to access issues. According to Fareham Borough Council'sstudy of employment land, access constraints at Little Park Farm appear to effectively rule out B1 and B2use classes and mean anything but low density, sui generis type uses are unlikely(39).
87 This site, 'Land at Little Park Farm', is included in a recent Hampshire-wide employment land assessment.In terms of development potential for B1-B8 uses, the site is categorised as a 'strategic site' which "mayrequire remedial action to avoid market failure"(40). This site had been considered previously for its potentialas a rail depot (as a site to relocate the aggregate rail depot from Fareham Station Yard). This use hassubsequently been ruled out on viability grounds.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-3,and 5. Proposals for such smaller scale facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identifiedabove. The suitability of this site for other development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants(due to the narrow nature of the site, its topography, access restrictions etc).
CommentsAssessment criteria

75Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
CommentsAssessment criteria
Nature conservation Pond on the site might contain amphibians (e.g. great crested newt which is a protected species).Possible presence of common reptiles, bats, badgers and dormice (known in woodlands on other side ofM27).SSSI and SINCs lie to the north on other side of the M27.The eastern part of the site includes mature hedgerows linking broad leaved woodland and ancientwoodland.
Historic environmentand built heritage
No archaeological sites currently recorded.Grade II building (Little Park Farmhouse) south of the site.
Traffic & access Issues over providing adequate access underneath Network Rail bridge and access from the motorwayvia a roundabout will need to be resolved via a routing agreement.Access improvements through the industrial estate and improvements to railway bridge are proposed (theonly existing access is a single track private road).Site includes internal access roads.No rail access to the site currently.Access to the site is through the industrial estate from the Primary Route Network (A27), whilst theStrategic Road Network (M27) is within 1km.
Proximity to sensitivehuman &environmental receptors
Small pocket of ancient woodland at east end of site, containing pond and stream.Residential properties approx. 50 m south of the western section.Two schools within 1km (Whitely primary to the north; Park Gate primary to the south).
Proximity to aerodromesafeguarding areas
Site lies within Southampton Airfield Safety Zone and Daedelus and Southampton Bird Strike Zone.
Potential land useconflict
Available land (approx.1.5 ha) for possible housing development identified by Borough Council, approx.200 metres north of the site ('Whitely Area 11/ Shetland Rise').
Opportunity forco-location
Sites within approx. 1km: Rookery Farm; Unit 6 Crompton Way; Segensworth HWRC.
Other issues (e.g. publicrights of way)
The uneven topography may need to be considered a limitation for some potential uses.Public footpath lies approx. 200 m to the south, running east to west.

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Where possible development should avoid significant loss of habitat and provide necessary biodiversityenhancement to compensate.
ii. This site is currently undeveloped and may be used for informal recreation (potential land use conflicts area consideration to be investigated further).
iii. The proximity to residential properties on Red Oaks Drive and potential impacts on amenity are keyconsiderations.
iv. Potential co-location opportunities with Segensworth West and East Industrial Estate.v. Proposals would need to accommodate similar scale waste development to be in keeping with the surrounding
industrial buildings.vi. The topography of the land may restrict the type and configuration of any facility.
Nomination
88 The site was identified in December 2009 by Hampshire County Council.
77Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Site history & background
89 The site lies partly within and on the boundary of Segensworth West Industrial Estate. The site is wellscreened from neighbouring highways by vegetation and benefits from good access to and from the nearestminerals and waste lorry route and the M27. Segensworth West Industrial Estate also benefits from goodlandscape and although it is more suited for office use, the site does hold potential for general industrialuses.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 3and 4. Proposals for such enclosed uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, andbe compatible with the adjacent industrial estate. The suitability of this site for other development categorieswould need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the proximity to residential properties and the site'sphysical constraints).
CommentsAssessment Criteria
Protection of waterresources

Nomination
90 This site was identified by Hampshire County Council in 2010.
79Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Site history & background
91 The Pinks Industrial Park, consisting of the former Pinks Sawmill site, is composed of a number of unitsconverted from the sawmill facility and currently housing a variety of commercial and industrial businesses.Part of this site has been identified as having potential to house a waste facility, due to a vacant unit, as theland is both designated as employment land by Fareham Borough Council and already houses existingcommercial/industrial activities. A waste tyre baling facility is already present at the site, present in units 1and 2, following the granting of planning permission byHampshire County Council in 2009, whilst permissionfor the recycling of tyres was additionally granted in April 2010.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-3,and 5. Proposals for such smaller scale facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identifiedabove, including ensuring impacts on nearby residential amenity are avoided. Proposals would also need totake into account the drainage of the site, as the majority of the industrial area overlies a minor aquifer. Thesuitability of this site for other development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due tothe existing buildings on the site etc).
CommentsAssessment Criteria
Protection of waterresources
The majority of the site lies on a secondary aquiferThe southern section of the site lies in a source protection zone 3
Visual intrusion The site lies at a low elevation and visual impact likely to be moderate adverseSite is fairly open to the south being on the edge of open downs landscape typeVisual impact likely to be moderate adverseLandscape Type: Lowland Mosaic Medium ScaleLandscape Character Area: Forest of Bere East (2f)
Nature conservation Six designated ancient woodlands within 1km of the siteSeven SINCs lie within 1km of the site
Historic environmentand built heritage
Five historic buildings lie within 1km of the site, with one Grade II property immediately adjacent to thesite; the setting should not therefore be compromised, but this does not preclude any use of the site forwaste purposes.The site is currently undeveloped in an area where there are only modest archaeological records.
Traffic & access There is immediate access onto the Local Road Network (A32) whilst the Strategic Road Network (M27)is located approximately 1.9km south.Visibility splays from site onto A32 should be adequate.There may potentially need to be a right turn lane in and also a ban on right turns out depending upontraffic flows.

Nomination
92 The site was nominated in November 2005.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)82
Site history & background
93 The site covers an area of approximately 1.4ha and lies within Quay Lane Industrial Estate in the Hardwayarea. The condition of buildings and internal environment indicate the industrial estate hosts some more'bad neighbour' uses. The site has some issues with regards to access and also its proximity to sites designatedfor nature conservation.
94 Access to the site from Priory Road is not recommended due to on-street parking and as such, a site accesson Quay Lane may be needed if traffic generation is low enough. The site is considered by Gosport BoroughCouncil as being suitable to host a range of employment activities, and a waste transfer station was grantedpermission in 2004 to operate within the industrial estate.
95 The Industrial Estates Study concludes that despite the site being associated with issues regarding access,environmental designations and designated sites for historic conservation, the estate does have some potentialto host waste management activities based on the sites general characteristics and proximity to the strategicroad network(41).
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, includingensuring impacts on nearby residential amenity are avoided. Proposals would also need to take into accountof the existing buildings on site, and configure, manage the site to avoid impacts on nearby sensitive habitats.The suitability of this site for other development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (dueto the proximity to nature conservation designations, residential dwellings, access etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Proposals in this broad location depend on development plots becoming available for waste managementuses.
ii. The need to avoid adverse impact on the openness and rural character of the area is a key consideration.iii. Implications of proximity to European nature conservation designated sites to be investigated through
Habitats Regulations Assessment process.iv. Any alternative use of HRT 026 (The HOWF) would require a change of use.v. The limitations on development potentially imposed by the aerodrome safeguarding zone (e.g. building
height) require consideration.vi. Need to consider mechanisms to manage any prospective Large Goods Vehicle movements associated with
redevelopment of the HOWF site.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)88
Nomination
98 HRT 019 (former Pyestock complex) was identified by Hampshire County Council in 2005. The potentialopportunity at the adjacent site (HRT 026) - known as The HOWF, east of Bramshott Road, was identifiedin January 2010. Only a proportion of the site would be identified for waste uses but the boundaries are yetto be defined.
Site history & background
99 These sites are located on Ively Road, Farnborough and fall within the Hart District Council administrativeboundary.
100 The larger site (HRT 019) is the former MoD NGTE (National Gas Turbine Establishment)- a leadingDERA (Defense Evaluation and Research Agency) facility which has been decommissioned. AstralDevelopments purchased the Pyestock site from QinetiQ in 2004. Their plans for the redevelopment ofPyestock North ('Hartland Park') include the total demolition of the existing structures, and their replacementby a number of distribution warehouses. In September 2009, the Hartland Park proposal was grantedpermission by the Secretary of State(43). The proposals involve retaining the occupied buildings whilstconverting the vacant part of the site into a new logistics and business park, and cleaning up the contaminatedsite.
101 The Hartland Park site has permission for 120,000m2 of B8 (storage and distribution) and ancillary officefloorspace. The permission has a number of restrictions relating to uses and activities on the site (includesrestrictions on noise, lighting levels etc). One of the conditions seeks to ensure the incorporation ofrenewable energy technologies.
102 TheHOWF site (HRT 026) also forms part of the former DERA site but did not form part of the proposalsfor Hartland Park. This site has a Certificate of Lawful Use for a sewage processing plant (most of thestructures fall under sui generis use class). The footprint of the current built development on the site is 1.15hectares. Unlike the Pyestock site, the HOWF site has no specific policy support for redevelopment in theexisting local plan(44).
103 This extensive previously-developed site and strategic location provides a potential opportunity for a largerscale 'strategic' waste site on a proportion of the land. Any waste uses on Hartland Park would need to becompatible with the Hartland Park warehouse development (in light of discussions with the developer).
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this broad area is considered suitable for development categories3-6. Proposals for such enclosed waste uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above,and be compatible with planned new development on this site. There may be opportunities to utilise energyrecovered from waste treatment to support Hartland Park's business uses. The suitability of this site for otheropen categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants.
43 The Planning Inspector originally recommended that appeals against refusal by the District Council be dismissed and planning permission refused. The Secretaryof State disagreed with the Inspector's recommendation and has allowed both of the appeals and granted planning permission.

Protection of waterresources
HOWF site overlies a secondary aquifer.
Visual intrusion Pyestock complex currently comprises office, administrative and research buildings; and industrial andengineering buildings.Sites surrounded by large areas of largely coniferous forest, and well screened from public vantage points -unlikely to be any residential visual receptors because of the woodland cover.The existing development of Cody park and Farnborough airport have negative effects on the erosion of ruralcharacter, which would be exacerbated further by this development.The Local Plan(45) seeks to retain the rural and open nature of the strategic gap between Fleet and Farnborough.Note: the Hartland Park appeals were originally dismissed by the Appeal Inspector due to adverse impact onthe Gap and the rural character.Overall the visual effect is considered to be slight adverse, and the impact on character is considered to bemoderate adverse.Landscape Type: Woodland and Plantation on Heath and Landscape Character Area: North East HampshirePlantations and Heath (1c)

Traffic & access The Local Road Network (A327) is approximately 0.75km from the site, whilst the Strategic Road Network(M3) is approximately 2km from the site.Access via Bramshott Road (private road).Roads to the north of the sites linking to the M3motorway and A327 suffer significant peak period congestion.A package of transport improvements being put in place as part of Hartland park development e.g. cappingmechanism restricting HGV movements; vehicle monitoring system; and routing agreement.HOWF Site: Large congestion problems in area and strict routing and capacity agreements associated withpermission for adjacent Hartland Park site. Furthermore, the HOWF site does not have a baseline of trafficto build on meaning any vehicle movements would be additional.HOWF Site: Any development would need to consult with the Highways Agency re: restrictions associatedwith M3 J4A and consider mechanisms to manage any prospective vehicle movements associated withredevelopment of the HOWF site.

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)92
Site history & background
105 The site is located on an industrial estate within an area known as Brockhampton Lane Industrial Area. Thesite is known locally as Brockhampton Lane/Solent Road and is perceived as being one of the borough'solder industrial estates and no longer compatible with the needs of modern industry. Local planning policystates development on the site would be supported providing that there would be no prejudice onregeneration, environmental improvement and property development.
106 Investigations have taken place into exploring alternative access arrangements to the the site, as to assist inthe avoidance of HGV's impacts on the environment and resident. An active waste transfer station wasgranted consent in 2004 which lies adjacent to the site (HV045). The Industrial Estates Study indicates thesite has good access to the strategic road network, and good proximity to market areas for waste materials(47).
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 3and 5. Proposals for such small scale waste uses would need to address the deliverability issues identifiedabove, and be compatible with existing development in the vicinity. The suitability of this site for other openor larger scale development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the limited sitesize and existing built development).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Land availability for other waste uses following redevelopment on these sites is to be determined.ii. It is likely that proposals in this area would need to be supported by an appropriate hydrological study.
Portsmouth Water would need to be notified of any intrusive works (aspects such as site drainage requirecareful consideration).
iii. The chalk streams running through/ adjacent to HVT 010 should be protected and enhanced where possible.iv. Any potential hydrological issues likely to affect nature conservation designations would need to be considered
as part of the Habitats Regulations Assessment process.v. It is likely that a new access road is required to support the construction of any new facility on site HVT
010.vi. Highways Agency advised a traffic impact assessment to be undertaken before allocating these sites for
uses which are likely to generate large numbers of trips which use the Strategic Road Network.vii. The requirement to implement Rusty Cutter roundabout improvements prior to further development in
this locality is to be recognised.viii. HVT 006 is unlikely to be deliverable for waste related uses unless an access road is constructed to enable
access to this SEEDA-owned site.

This lesser sitebecame site HVT 010 (Former Incinerator Site). Site HVT 006 is the western part of the site and isowned by SEEDA. This site lies behind SEEDA's Broadmarsh Business Centre, and was originally promotedalongside the former incinerator site for possible waste uses(49).
Site history & background
108 The incinerator formerly located at HVT 010 ceased operation in 1996 and was demolished in 1997. HVT010 currently includes a Household waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) and a waste transfer station operatedby Veolia Environmental Services. A redevelopment scheme for this sites was approved by Hampshirecounty Council in 2010. It is planned that the site will continue to host a relocated HWRC (at the rear ofthe site), and the remaining land on the former incinerator site (to the south of the new HWRC) will besurplus to requirements. There are no firm plans for the land at the front of the site although not excludinga possible waste recycling use but also not excluding other commercial uses.
109 HVT 006 and 010 are both allocated for employment land uses(50). The allocation states significantlandscaping provision will be a requirement of this site which is intended for high tech employment uses(although it is recognised that redevelopment of this area would be dependent upon the relocation of theexisting waste handling facility and the use rights being extinguished).
110 HVT 010 was previously included in the Minerals & Waste Local Plan (1998) as a Preferred Site for anintegrated waste processing plant(51). The plan made clear that this site occupies a very prominent locationand is visible over a wide area. It also indicated that an environmental statement would be required withany application to demonstrate that unacceptable impact would not be caused.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-3and 5. Proposals for such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, and becompatible with existing development in the vicinity. The suitability of this site for other larger scaledevelopment categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the limited site size, landscapeconstraints and existing built development).

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)100
Site history & background
115 Husbands Shipyard is adjacent to Marchwood Industrial Park and comprises an area of existing industryfronting the coast at Cracknore Hard, together with two undeveloped areas. One of these is an area ofrough land east of the shipyard partly used for open storage. The other lies between the existing andproposed alignments of Cracknore Hard Lane and was formerly part of the military port landholding. Theexisting industry is very prominent in the views of the coast and is in some need of improvement. Theundeveloped sites are predominantly flat and featureless. There are several mature trees adjoining theexisting Cracknore Hard Lane.
116 This site offers the opportunity to create additional local employment and at the same time to improve theappearance of this visually prominent waterfront area. It also provides the opportunity to provide forenhanced public access in association with development of the adjoining former power station site. TheMarchwood industrial area currently hosts an number of minerals and waste facilities.

121 The nominated site lies within Airport Industrial Estate East and covers an area of approximately 0.5hectaresand is currently in used for maintenance and repair of motor vehicles and garage services. The site lies inclose proximity to a cluster of waste management facilities which range in their use types from thermaltreatment and energy recovery to waste transfer and recycling facilities.
105Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
122 The Industrial Estates Study concludes that the site has good access to the strategic road network and isclose proximity to other waste management operations(54). Portsmouth City Council planning officers aresupportive of intensification of industrial uses within the Anchorage Park Area which are not very intensivelyused. There is also already a concentration of waste uses in this area and thus potential for co-location.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. Proposals for such small scale waste uses would need to address the deliverability issues identifiedabove, and be compatible with existing development in the vicinity. The suitability of this site for other openor larger scale development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the limited sitesize and existing built development).

The site has ahistory of high vacancy rates due to the low market attractiveness and low profile of the site.
109Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
127 The site is on the western edge of the North east Hampshire Strategic Gap – site separated from Gap byrailway. Overall visual and character impact of site is slight. Access from M3 Junction 4 (which wouldlikely be the strategic access to this site) is of concern in terms of congestion. Furthermore, the impacts onBradfields Roundabout (junction of A325/ B3272) and Hawley Lane (often raised as safety concerns) wouldalso need to be considered carefully.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2, 3and 4. Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, includingensuring impacts on nearby residential amenity are avoided. Proposals would also need to take into accountof the existing buildings on site, and configure, manage the site to avoid impacts on nearby sensitive habitatsand hydrology. The suitability of this site for other development categories would need to be demonstratedby applicants (due to the proximity to nature conservation designations, residential dwellings, access etc).

129 The two nominated sites lie within Empress Park and next to each other. The two sites lie adjacent to arailway line on the banks of the River Itchen. The site already hosts a waste transfer station and is in closeproximity to rail and suitable road infrastructure. The site is adjacent to land in both general industry andstorage and distribution uses.
130 The Industrial Estates Study indicates the site is well connected to the transport network, and in closeproximity to existing waste activities and to market areas.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-4.Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, including ensuringimpacts on nearby residential amenity are avoided. Proposals would also need to take into account of theexisting buildings on site, hydrology issues and manage the site to avoid impacts on nearby sensitive habitatsincluding ensuring impacts on nearby residential amenity and the school are avoided. The suitability of thissite for other development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the proximity tonature conservation designations, residential dwellings and Southampton Local Plan safeguarding part of thearea for rail freight).
Consideration would need to be given to the rail freight safeguarding, including the use of temporary consentsand maintaining the ability to access the rail network

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Site is at risk from flooding.ii. European nature conservation designation lies adjacent to the site.iii. Control of traffic movementsiv. Possibility of competing land uses if comprehensive regeneration of the area were to be acceptable
Nomination
131 The site was nominated in September 2006.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)114
Site history & background
132 The nominated site lies within Willments Shipyard, an allocated employment site, Hazel Road/ WillmentMarine & Business park area suitable for general industry and storage and distribution uses. The site lies onthe banks of the River Itchen and adjacent to a railway line to the east. The site has a history of being usedfor concrete batching. The site is located in an industrial estate which is well used by HGVs. The roadsurface however is poor with pot holes, poor drainage, and access past some residential properties. Thetraffic impact on Hazel Road could only be severe if the maximum traffic generation assumption wererealised (which indicates the need for assessment and control).
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. Proposals for such small scale waste uses would need to address the deliverability issues identifiedabove, and be compatible with existing development in the vicinity and address access. The suitability of thissite for other open or larger scale development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (dueto the limited site size hydrology issues and close proximity to nature conservation).
In the long term there might be the potential to comprehensively regenerate the area (subject to addressing arange of issues).

Nomination
133 The site was nominated in November 2006.
117Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Site history & background
134 The site lies adjacent to Abbey Park Industrial Estate and may offer potential to provide an extension tothe industrial estate. The latter has been assessed in the study of Industrial areas and therefore site TTV029 should be considered in the context of the neighbouring industrial estate. The site is of such a sufficientsize, that it may be suitable to deliver more than one waste facility on this site. There is a possibility thatthe site could be used to provide land for the expansion of the adjacent industrial estate.
135 Site is accessed from Premier Way at the roundabout with the A27. There may be issues with the accessjunction and the potential for queueing traffic at peak hours if the site was developed for an HWRC.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-5.Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, including impactson nearby residential amenity are avoided. Proposals would also need to take into account the aspirations ofthe local planning authority and being adjacent to a local gap. The suitability of this site for other developmentcategories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the proximity of residential dwellings, accessetc).

138 The sites included in this section are those nominated on land which is not allocated as employment land.These sites have been identified as those most likely to have support in principle for a waste use in future,and where no major 'showstoppers' in terms of deliverability have been identified.
139 As shown by the 'site assessment' tables displayed below for each site, there are numerous issues whichwould need to be addressed in order for these sites to be acceptable in planning terms. Prior to a planningapplications being proposed however, the detailed requirements cannot be be determined.
140 Maps showing the indicative site boundaries of each of the following sites are included for each site. Fora map showing the location of all the sites by district see the end of this section.
141 The following sites are listed in alphabetical order by the local authority area within which they fall. Mostof these sites have been consulted on previously as part of the 'Issues and Options' consultation stage in2006 and 2007 (see Section 2 'Methodology for site selection and assessment'). Since this period, in mostcases further information has become available about the sites.
Assessment findings
Based on the assessment for each of the sites, the broad development categories which may be suitable areshown below. Please refer to development categories Section 2 'Methodology for site selection and assessment'.There are no landfill voids at these sites which makes category 7 irrelevant. For sites that potentially havelandfill voids see Section 9 'Sites nominated for disposal to land' and Landfill and Surcharging Report.

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Proposals would need to consider the potential incompatible land uses proposed on neighbouring land(and how any impacts on amenity would be managed).
ii. Potential uses would only be determined following further investigation and release of the site from currentleasing arrangements.
iii. Proposals for waste management should not prejudice the potential future use of the sites as an aggregatesdepot (uses should be complementary).
iv. Appropriate measures will need to be taken to prevent impact on local businesses (e.g congestion).v. Suitable access to the site would need to be securedvi. Proposals would need to ensure the underlying aquifer is protected.vii. Proximity to conservation area to be considered (visual intrusion impacts by large scale buildings to be
avoided).viii. Linear site unlikely to be suitable for large-scale waste facilities.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)122
Nomination
142 Site nominated by the landowner Network Rail in 2006 who lease the rail sidings to rail operator EWS.The site was identified for potential minerals and waste activity due to its ability to transport materials byrail. The site boundary is approximate and may change to suit operational requirements.
Site history & background
143 The site is located within the centre of Basingstoke south of Houndmills industrial estate (west of Basingstoketrain station). The site is currently used as rail sidings, and has been identified as an opportunity to importcrushed rock to the north of the county (a market for imported aggregates which is currently not served byrail). The site has been identified by an independent study as a preferred site for an aggregates rail depot,which should be safeguarded for such uses(56).
144 Adjacent land to the north east of the site is under pressure for development, and if eventually implementedcould result in potential land use conflicts. In 2009 for instance, a planning application for a major mixeduse development (including approx. 500 residential units) was submitted to Basingstoke Borough Counciland subsequently refused. This decision was appealed (the appeal decision is currently pending)(57). Further,permission has been granted for approximately 300 residential units south of the site (between the railwayand Churchill Way West).
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1and 2. Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, includingensuring impacts on the underlying aquifer and conservation area. Proposals would also need to take accountof the existing uses on the site. The suitability of this site for other development categories would need to bedemonstrated by applicants (due to the restrictions on the scale of built development (to avoid visual impacts)etc).

Nomination
145 Peak Copse is owned by Hampshire County Council. The site was identified in 2005 following a site searchfor the south-west Basingstoke area. The original nomination (BSD 016) has since been reduced to reflectthe available brownfield element only (BSD 022). The latter area (the former caravan site) is assessedbelow. Due to its strategic location, the site has previously been considered for its potential to host aHousehold Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC).
Site history & background
146 Peak Copse has planning consent and was used previously as a gypsy and traveller residential site. Thebrownfield elements of the site consist of this caravan park and a Hampshire County Council depot. Thesite has an adjoining copse which is currently unmanaged. Peak Copse is located directly north of the A30dual carriageway adjacent to Junction 7 of the M3 motorway to the south-west of Basingstoke.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-3.Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, including impactson the surrounding copse and protection of the conservation area, historic landscape and setting. Proposalswould also need to take account of the existing development on site. The suitability of this site for other largerscale development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (esp. how visual impacts wouldbe avoided).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Any proposals should avoid setting a precedent for built development in this countryside location.ii. Opportunities to utilise existing hardstanding and waste management infrastructure should be maximised.iii. The proximity to a nitrate vulnerable area is a key consideration.iv. Potential to use the existing site access should be maximised.v. The need to avoid impact on the landscape character is a key consideration.vi. Traffic likely to exceed levels under the previous planning permissions is a key consideration, and should
seek to avoid significant adverse impacts in terms of traffic or road safety.
Nomination
147 BSD021 was nominated in 2009 by SITA. Neighbouring site BSD 025 was identified by a waste operatorin 2010. The sites will be considered together for the purposes of this assessment. BSD 021 was identifiedby a waste operator originally for an eco recovery park (linked to agricultural production within the adjoiningApsley estate) An operator has recently identified BSD 025 as having potential for open windrow composting.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)128
Site history & background
148 The sites are located near to the village of Hurstbourne Priors, on arable land located east of Apsley Farm,a former chalk quarry and non-hazardous waste disposal (landfill). Chalk extraction and infill at ApsleyFarm commenced during the 1980s and extraction ceased in 2006. Apsley farm landfill was grantedpermission for three separate phases of development, although only the first two phases were developed.During the 1990s permission was granted to use part of the landfill site for a waste transfer station. ApsleyFarm landfill site was acquired by SITA in 2004 (leased fromApsley Farm Estates Ltd.). In 2009 permissionwas granted to import capping soils to use to complete and improve the restoration and gas managementat the landfill site.
149 BSD021/ 025 are east of a disused railway cutting and haul road. BSD 025 is located on Phase III of thelandfill permission (which is unimplemented because a PPC permit from the Environment Agency was notreceived). BSD 021 is south of BSD 025. Apart from the restored former landfill, the sites are surroundedby agricultural land.
Assessment Findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1and 2. Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, includingavoiding significant adverse impacts in terms of traffic or road safety, and be compatible with the countrysidelocation.

139Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Nomination
156 EHS026 (1.67 hectares) was identified in 2007 by Hampshire County Council due to its potential rail accessto the existing MRF (Materials Recovery Facility). EHS030 (1.4 hectares) was nominated in 2008 by thelandowner Exxon Mobil (land surplus to requirements). Alton MRF is a major facility and the adjacentsites represent an opportunity to expand the waste uses at this location in the form of a Resource Park typeof development. It has been suggested that an intermodal rail service could be developed at this locationto move recovered paper from Alton MRF to the UPM Shotton processing site in North Wales.
Site history & background
157 The two sites lie either side of Alton MRF- a facility which sorts dry mixed recyclables and is operated byVeolia Environmental Services. EHS026 is undeveloped land owned by the Treloar Trust. EHS030 is an'L' shaped piece of brownfield land to the rear and side of Exxon Mobil's existing oil pumping station.
Assessment Findings:
Based on the information currently available, these sites are considered suitable for development categories1-4. The uses on each of the sites are likely to differ as EHS026 is undeveloped land and may be morecompatible with categories 1 and 2. Proposals for such facilities would need to address the deliverabilityissues identified above, including visual impacts on surrounding area / buildings and opportunities to exploitrail transport. The suitability of this site for other development categories (buildings with a stack) would needto be demonstrated by applicants.

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. The scale of the site and its access to the main road network offers an opportunity to locate a resource parktype model (large scale facility). This would also need to demonstrate that there would be no adverse impactson the junction / A3
ii. Relatively unconstrained site with in terms of designations and information on land availability anddeliverability is available.
iii. Any suitable facility would require appropriate siting, with suitable mitigation to avoid damage/encroachment/ pollution of surrounding woodland or any protected species. A habitat survey likely to berequired prior to any development (records of great crested newts).
iv. It is likely that permission for a permanent facility would be required to justify the investment in developingthis site.
v. Located in area designated as countryside.vi. Potential opportunity to provide waste management facility serving Portsmouth and planned growth of
Waterlooville
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)142
vii. Hydrogeology constraints likely to restrict potential proposals.viii. Drainage and proximity to the stream means pollution issues would need to be considered.ix. Advice from the Environment Agency would be necessary due to the water resource issues.
Nomination
158 This site was nominated in 2009 on behalf of the landowner. This site lies within a larger area known asHazleton Interchange which has previously been nominated for clay extraction and infill (see ruled out siteEHS022). The promoter of this site has devised a waste management proposal termed Blendworth ResourceFarm s based on a Resource Management Park concept.
Site history & background
159 The site is owned by one landowner and is located on Blendworth Common within Hazleton Farm. Thesite is adjacent to the A3 motorway (near junction 2). The site lies outside a settlement policy boundary inthe Local Plan(58), and as such it is regarded as countryside. Part of the site has a permission for use as arace track contained within two arcs of earth bunding.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1and 2. This is due to the existing infrastructure and size of the site. Proposals for such uses would need toaddress the deliverability issues identified above, for example the hydrological constraints. The suitability ofthis site for other enclosed development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to beingin an open countryside location etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Site partly allocated for landscape improvements.ii. Measures should be taken to minimise impacts on the openness of area. Proposals which would be
detrimental to the quality of the landscape in the area are unlikely to be acceptable.iii. Site lies on the edge of a retail park and Hampshire Corporate Park, so any development should reflect this
and be in keeping.iv. Compatibility with neighbouring uses is a major consideration (offices, car showroom). Specifically, screening
and planting may be necessary to reduce visibility of waste management activities by neighbouring uses.
Nomination
160 The site was nominated in January 2010 by Eastleigh Borough Council as a possible site to host an HouseholdWaste Recycling Centre (which is being relocated from elsewhere in the borough).
145Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Site history & background
161 The site is an undeveloped sloping site lying between existing mixed use employment areas. The site currentlycontains a temporary skate park. The site is on the edge on character area 'EAST 10 Retail Park andHampshire Corporate Park' which means that there is generally a higher architectural quality, so any futuredevelopment should reflect this and be in keeping. The site is away from residential properties and one ofthe boundaries is close to the north bound carriageway of the M3.
162 The site appears to partly covered by an area allocated for landscape improvements. Eastleigh BoroughCouncil are seeking to improve the landscape alongmajor transportation corridors and improve and reinforceboundaries between built-up and green areas and link these areas through appropriate landscape treatment.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. This is due to the surrounding employment area, where an enclosed development is likely to be moreappropriate considering the exposed nature of the site. Proposals for such uses would need to address thedeliverability issues identified above.

172 This site is relatively isolated and located within an undeveloped gap between urban settlements (i.e. theHavant, Leigh Park/ Cowplain, Waterlooville, Purbrook, Portsmouth strategic gap). A large superstore ishowever located to the south of the site. This site is undeveloped land, outside the 'urban area' boundary.Due to its size and proximity to urban areas (a waste source), this site offers an opportunity to accommodatemore than one facility, or a large scale facility.
173 Site is located to the west of the B2150 Hulbert Road and to the south of A3(M) junction 3. Visibility andthe accident record of the local road network are the main highways concerns. The proposed site has goodlinks to the strategic road network however.

Assessment Findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1, 2,3 and 4. This is due to the site size, good links to the strategic road network and the relative isolation of thesite. Proposals for such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above.

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Potential landscape impact issues is a key consideration as the site is located in New Forest National Park.ii. History of industrial uses at the site.iii. The boundary shown is indicative (would require discussions with landowner).iv. Potential opportunity to provide small-scale waste management facilities for local businesses.v. Relatively unconstrained site (although amenity impacts on adjacent residential properties to be avoided).vi. Any facility would need to ensure biodiversity interests in the area are protected and where possible enhanced.
Nomination
175 This site was identified by Hampshire County Council in 2006.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)160
Site history & background
176 The site is located between the A336 Ringwood Rd and Eadens Lane, between Netley Marsh and Bartley.The site is located in the New Forest National Park. Part of the site is currently used as a saw mill by R. F.Giddings & Co. Ltd. The saw mill was completely rebuilt in 2005-06, following a fire at the start whichdestroyed the original sawmill.
Assessment Findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. A small enclosed development would be more in keeping with the existing buildings on the site .Proposals for such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above. The suitability of thissite for other enclosed development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to potentialimpacts on the surrounding area and residential properties, and the location within the New Forest NationalPark etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Access to and from the site should be via Charleston Road and Cadland Road from the A326.ii. An assessment should be made of the potential impact of development on the area of nature conservation
interest adjoining the southern boundary of the site.iii. An assessment should be made of the potential impacts of development on watercourses and groundwater.iv. The public right of way adjoining the site should be safeguarded.v. Likely that Environmental Impact Assessment would be required.vi. Health & Safety Executive would need to be consulted on any applications (due to proximity to COMAH(61)
site).vii. Appropriate measures required to ensure that there would be no unacceptable impact on the locality,
particularly on nearby houses in Hythe.viii. Any buildings should be sited, designed and landscaped (screened) recognising the proximity to housing
and the New Forest National Park.

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Local plans and aspirations for development of this site are yet to be determined.ii. Any proposals would need to be designed and operated to avoid impacts on residential amenity.iii. Habitat surveys may be required considering the proximity to nature conservation areas.iv. The site is long and narrow which will restrict the type of use and configuration of any facilities.v. The site is relatively unconstrained although flood risk is a key consideration.vi. Traffic access constraints would need to be addressed, and rail access should be the primary means of
transport.vii. The potential for impacts on nature conservation designations will need to be addressed by the Habitats
Regulations Assessment process.viii. Opportunities for reverse logistics should be considered, considering the proximity to facilities in Totton
and Marchwood.

Nomination
181 This site is being promoted for waste uses by Portsmouth Commercial Port (Portsmouth City Council'sPort department). The site has been identified as a potential opportunity to transport waste paper by railfrom Fratton to a freight siding at Shotton paper mill on Deeside. This would include waste paper receivedfrom the Quartremaine waste transfer facility (Portsmouth Incinerator Site) and Alton Materials RecoveryFacility.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)168
Site history & background
182 This site is part of the newly constructed Fratton Goods Yard in Portsmouth. It is currently inactive andvacant (latest at February 2010). The site is owned by Network rail and leased to the Port.
183 This site has been deemed unsuitable for aggregate landing and transshipment in a recent study(63), as bulkrail freight movements would be difficult to schedule between deep sea container freight services. However,the study suggests that whether waste transshipments from nearby scrap metal and other waste treatmentfacilities could take advantage of Fratton Goods Yard remains to be seen.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1and 2. This is due to established rail access. The suitability of this site for enclosed development categorieswould need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to proximity to residential properties, access constraints,size of the site etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Site is currently being investigated for the relocation of the city owned dog kennels. It is likely that this sitewill be unavailable, and thus availability needs to be monitored.
ii. Designated as a community allocation in Local Plan.iii. Any buildings would need to be single storey and be compatible with the existing buildings on site.iv. The potential for impacts on nature conservation designations will need to be addressed by the Habitats
Regulations Assessment process.
Nomination
184 The site was nominated by Portsmouth City Council in January 2007. The site is adjacent to Southsea golfclub and is close to the Great Salterns recreation area.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)170
Site history & background
185 The Portsmouth City Local Plan 2001-2011 designates the site, known in the plan as Land South of BurrfieldsRoad, as a new community allocation, which is owned by Portsmouth City Council. The communityallocation designation relates in part to a reservation of the site as a City Farm, although this proposal wasnever implemented. The plan does however indicate that "another similar educational or environmentalenterprise could be acceptable" or "the provision of sports / community facilities could also be acceptable"in the event of the City Farm proposal failing to progress. The Local Plan also states that the currentcondition of the site does little to improve the visual impact of the Burrfields Road frontage and containsa number of small buildings which, while not listed, are of some architectural merit and should preferablybe retained. Any additional development / redevelopment should be low key (single storey only).
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2and 3. This is due to the size and surrounding build environment. Proposals for such uses would need toaddress the deliverability issues identified above. The suitability of this site for other enclosed developmentcategories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the site size, screening issues etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Access arrangements and highways improvements are likely to be required to make any proposals acceptable(ideally in conjunction with the urban extension plans).
ii. The MoD's future plans for this site need to be ascertained.iii. Proposals should not prejudice the successful redevelopment of the Aldershot Urban Extension (any
potential land use conflicts would require early identification).iv. Proposals should be considered alongside the existing Gold Farm (Newman's site).v. Opportunities to maximise the potential for rail access should be considered.vi. The proximity to the Basingstoke Canal (SSSI and Conservation Area) is a major consideration.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)172
Nomination
186 This site is part of the MoD's estate in Aldershot, near to land being released on behalf of Aspire Defencefor private redevelopment (known as the Aldershot Urban Extension). This site was identified in 2005 bythe consultants working on behalf of Defence Estates to design a masterplan for the urban extension. Thissite was originally identified as a possible Household Waste Recycling site to support the future expansionof Aldershot (the urban extension). Subsequently, an alternative location has been agreed (see RMR 002Sites in areas of planned development).
Site history & background
187 It is understood that this site has been used as a mulching site by the MoD. There does not appear to beany built development on the site and it provides an area of woodland/ grassland. The road access is anunadopted road (MoD owned), and large vehicle movements in the vicinity are an existing concern locally.The adjacent Gold Farm site (RMR 003) has previously been refused planning permission for waste uses.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-3.Proposals for such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above, includingaccommodating a suitable access. The suitability of this site for other enclosed development categories wouldneed to be demonstrated by applicants (due to the size of the site and proximity to a conservation area etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. The extent to which the openness of the Blackwater Valley would be physically or visually diminished is akey consideration.
ii. The need to avoid prejudicing plans for use of Blackwater Valley footpath for recreation/ mitigation landis a key consideration.
iii. The sensitivity of the adjacent SINCs to changes in hydrology and pollution (e.g. from dust) will need tobe considered.
iv. The potential for impacts on nature conservation designations will need to be addressed by the HabitatsRegulations Assessment process.
v. Retention and possible enhancement of the mature wooded boundary to the west should be considered.vi. The proximity to Farnborough Airport may restrict the nature of any future waste operations.vii. The MoD will need to be consulted if the use of military roads to access the site is considered.

Nomination
188 This site is one of Lafarge Redland Aggregate's landholdings and was nominated by the operator in 2007.Considering the owners of the site, there may be interest in future to use this site for construction anddemolition waste (storage, processing etc). The site is located near to North Camp station on the borderof Rushmoor borough.
Site history & background
189 This site is towards the northern end of Hollybush Lane, an unadopted road which runs parallel to theBlackwater Valley Road and the Blackwater River. The site was formerly used as the Old Redland Plantsite (minerals working). An application to import construction and demolition for aggregate recycling wasrefused in 2001. Large vehicle movements in the vicinity are an existing concern locally. The East ofAldershot study (as noted for RMR 002) will also look at the potential to improve access to the junction ofthe A3011 (Lynchford Road) & the A331.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-3.Proposals for such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above. The suitability of thissite for other enclosed development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to impactson Blackwater Valley and access constraints etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Site overlaps local authority boundary (potentially different site aspirations).ii. Access to the motorway network (M271) - existing local access is inappropriate, existing industrial area lies
the other side of the M271.iii. Scale, layout etc of uses should be designed to minimise impacts on the openness of the site.iv. The proximity to residential properties and schools, with impacts on amenity is a key consideration.v. Potential uses should be complementary to any future economic uses in the vicinity.vi. Types of waste may be constrained due to proximity of schools, playing fields and allotments.
Nomination
190 This sites were nominated by Hampshire County Council in June 2006(64). The northern section lies withinTest Valley Borough Council. The southern section lies within Southampton City Council.
64 Note: The site was originally considered as one comprehensive site comprising the two sites (site nomination code SCC009).
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)178
Site history & background
191 The sites are currently undeveloped land and in agricultural use. The southern section of the site (1.73hectares), was previously subject to a planning application for a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant in200, which was permitted but not implemented. The site was previously identified in Southampton CityCouncil's Local Plan Review (2006) as having potential for the development of a Combined Heat and Powergenerating Station (CHP), subject to various environmental protection criteria(65).
192 The northern section of the site, is currently safeguarded for park and ride uses in Test Valley BoroughCouncil's current Local Plan. However, the Council may seek to reallocate the site for warehousedevelopment to provide economic development opportunities.
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 2-4.This is due to the size of the site and access to motorway network M271. Proposals for such uses would needto address the deliverability issues identified above. The suitability of this site for other enclosed developmentcategories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to close proximity to schools and residentialproperties and amenities, and screening / visibility issues etc).

Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. Located in intensive port area with good road and sea access (waterside access and berthing facility).ii. Only a proportion of this area should be developed for waste management-related uses- land should be
preserved for port uses as much as possible and to minimise the potential for cumulative impacts on theurban area.
iii. The site has good internal dock road access and railway access could be explored as Millbrook rail accessto the port runs through the site.
iv. The character, potential flood risk and setting of the listed King George V dry dock should be taken intoaccount.
v. Aerodrome Safeguarding Zonemay restrict the type of waste uses which could be developed. If the proposedstructure is greater than 90 metres then consultation with BAA will be required
vi. Any proposal would need to ensure the design, transport arrangements and avoidance of environmentalimpacts are appropriately addressed, taking into account the nearby air quality management zone.
181Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
vii. Restrictions on the level of materials imported onto the site by road will be required to ensure importationis predominately by sea. (Southampton’s core strategy safeguards the area for port related uses)
viii. Any facility should create a positive landmark architectural statement and its scale / bulk will require carefulassessment, to ensure an appropriate relationship with the surrounding area, taking into account the portenvirons and nearby residential properties.
ix. Implications of proximity to European nature conservation designations to be investigated through HabitatsRegulations Assessment process.
Nomination
193 The broad area (comprising three individual nominated sites) was identified by Southampton City Councilin 2010. The site is located south of the railway line and Rail Freightliner Terminal. The site is visible fromMillbrook Road West (which is parallel to the railway line), and also from some residential streets to thenorth. There are different options for how this area could be configured to accommodate waste managementuses, but it is unlikely that the entire site would be developed. Other than for supporting infrastructure.
Site history & background
194 Part of this wider site was previously subject to a proposal for a palm oil energy plant. However, anapplication was submitted, but then withdrawn. The area includes the King George V Dry Dock, a listeddry dock structure (King George V Graving Dock) and associated berth (Berth 110), plus adjacent hardstanding dock land. The dry dock was constructed in 1932 to enable big ship construction to take place inSouthampton.
195 The identified area is near to Dock Gate 12 and lies either side of a large container storage area (along WestBay Road). The Recresco Glass Recycling Facility is located to the south east of the area.
196 An energy firm has discussed proposals with the port owners Associated British Ports (ABP) to build a100 megawatt (MW) biomass plant and for the heat generated to be piped into homes around Southampton.The firm has submitted an Environmental Impact Assessment scoping report and an application for aproposal is anticipated in 2011.
197 The majority of this area comprises of warehouse type buildings across the south of the site and asphalt /concrete hardstanding across the northern section, but no warehouse buildings are within the identifiedsite. In principle an appropriate renewable energy plant of a suitable scale can be supported, which usessuitable fuel and technology for the urban and environmental context within the Port of SouthamptonWestern Docks, subject to consideration of the following issues. Such uses (which could incorporaterecovery from appropriate waste streams such as biomass) would be supported only where the plant wouldnot prejudice the wider operation of the Port (and would be supplied predominately by ship); would becapable of supplying heat to the local area; and the design, transport, air quality, environmental and othereffects are acceptable, including in respect of nearby residential areas. Any energy facility with a generatingcapacity of 50MW or more will be determined through the Infrastructure Planning Commission (IPC) orsuccessor arrangements. In these circumstances the Council will submit a local impact statement.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)182
Assessment findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-3and 5. This is due to the industrial location which has good road and sea access and existing built developmenton the site, but is a prominent site in proximity to residential properties and an Air Quality Management Area.The suitability of this site for other development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (dueto the need to control the scale of a facility, and the proximity of the site to residential areas and the AQMA).In practice the requirement for fuel to be transported to the site predominately by ship is likely to strictly limitthe types of development within the potentially suitable categories, which will be appropriate. Proposals wouldneed to address the deliverability issues identified above (notably traffic, design and air quality considerations,screening required and proximity to European Nature conservation designated areas etc). Parts of the siteare within 250 metres of sensitive receptors, which is likely to limit or require additional careful assessmentof some types of development within these categories.

i. Opportunity to use the existing yard (highways depot hardstanding), although the exact location for wastemanagement is to be determined
ii. Potential waste uses need to be considered alongside future plans for the wider Dunwood nurseries site forsoft sand extraction and inert infill (yet to be determined). Waste management uses should avoid permanentsterilisation of mineral reserve and seek to complement future uses.
iii. Any built development would need to avoid impacts on visual amenity and be sympathetic to thesurroundings.
iv. The proximity to residential properties and impacts on amenity are key considerations.v. Further assessment is required to determine whether the existing access would be suitable.

Nomination
200 This site was initially promoted in 2003 by an operator for the development of a Construction &Demolitionreclamation unit. Later in 2006 a waste operator nominated this site for a specialist waste processing facility.Most recently, TTV038 has been nominated by the landowner for a range of waste management facilities.The wider 'Dunwood Nurseries' site has been nominated for extraction and infill (see TTV010 Sitesnominated for disposal to land). The site has been identified in the past by Hampshire County Council fora possible Household Waste Recycling Centre. This use was subsequently ruled out because potentialqueueing traffic on the A27 would not be suitable. Non-hazardous landfill following extraction has alsobeen ruled out in principle due to the proximity to residential properties.
201 Proposals to develop the entire 7.4 hectare site for a range of waste management facilities have beensuggested, although concentrating development on the former highways depot part of the site (which hasa Certificate of Lawful Use for storage) is the developer's preference.
Site history & background
202 The site is located within a rural setting just west of Romsey and east of Sherfield English, adjacent to theA27 road, which forms the southern edge of the site. The northern edge of the site backs on to Hazelcoppice woodland. The site was previously a fruit farm and piggery, with part of the site also being quarriedfor sand, which ceased over 40 years ago. The site is in single ownership. The wider 'Dunwood Nurseries'site contains a Hampshire County Council depot, cattery, former fruit farm and surplus agricultural land.The depot is currently leased to Hampshire County Council for use as a stone chipping storage yard.
Assessment Findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1, 2and 3. This is due to existing built development on site and site size. Proposals for such uses would need toaddress the deliverability issues identified above. The suitability of this site for other enclosed developmentcategories would need to be demonstrated by applicants (due to impact on traffic management, impacts onresidential properties and amenity etc).

Nomination
203 Network Rail identified the strategic freight site at Micheldever in 2005 for potential future minerals andwaste related uses. It has been safeguarded as a site for a rail-head aggregates depot since 1987. The siteboundaries are approximate.
Site history & background
204 The site is located north of Micheldever Station, south of the A303 and west of Overton Road. The sitehas been partly used as a rail terminal for oil with part of the eastern chalk slope containing undergroundstorage tanks. Despite the size, land at this site appears to be based on two significantly split levels in height– the lowest level at the approximately same height as the siding.
205 The site was safeguarded as a site for a rail-head aggregates depot in the Hampshire Minerals &Waste LocalPlan (1998). A recent study indicates that the combined land at WCC014 could be used for a wastedistribution or recycling facility in addition to aggregate imports(66).
Assessment Findings:
Based on the information currently available, this site is considered suitable for development categories 1-2. Opportunities to utilise part of the site for the storage and transhipment of waste materials has beenidentified. Proposals for such uses would need to address the deliverability issues identified above. Thesuitability of this site for other enclosed development categories would need to be demonstrated by applicants(due to proximity to residential properties and amenities and site layout etc).

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)200
Section 8 Sites in areas of planned development
214 In Hampshire, development areas have been identified to provide new housing and employment developmentto meet housing needs and economic growth aspirations across planning authority areas over the nexttwenty years. It is recognised that waste management infrastructure may be necessary to support plannednew development. This section assesses the capacity for planned new development areas to accommodatenew waste management facilities. For instance some planned new development has already identified sites(or land requirements) for waste management as part of the master planning for these development areas.For other areas, the precise location, siting and scale of any facility is yet to be determined.
215 These areas of planned development identified are:(67)
Bordon/ Whitehill Eco-townFareham Strategic Development Area (SDA)Aldershot Urban Extension (AUE)West of Waterlooville Major Development Area (MDA)North of Whiteley Major Development Area (MDA)
216 It is also worth noting that the siteELH 006 site adjacent to Waste Water Treatment Works, Eastleigh(see Section 6 'Nominated sites currently allocated for employment uses') provides a potential opportunityto provide a waste management/ energy generation facility to support the Eastleigh Riverside redevelopmentarea(68). For the purposes of this study, ELH 006 is considered as a distinct site however as the site boundaryand planning policy status are defined which enables more detailed site assessment.
67 The majority of growth areas were identified in the South East Plan (SEP) which the Government is currently proposing to revoke. These development areas arestill being planned for at a local level, with the exception of Hedge End Strategic Development Area (SDA) as this site is no longer being considered due to teststhat were undertaken on various feasibility studies
68 This is also known as the South Hampshire Strategic Employment Area, which was also included in the South East Plan (see policy SH3-Scale, Location and Type ofEmployment Development). According to the South East Plan, this area is the largest employment area in South Hampshire and is capable of being developed for awide range of uses.

EHS 029 Whitehill Bordon Eco-town Area of Search
Local authority: East Hampshire District CouncilPlanned new development: 5,500 dwellings (net) and associated infrastructure and employment opportunities.
Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. HWRC would require ample landscaping as a buffer to the planned adjoining areas.ii. The siting of a waste use on this site will depend on the final configuration of theWhitehill Bordon Eco-town
masterplan.iii. Access arrangements and highways improvements will be a key consideration in determining an acceptable
location.iv. Delivery subject to a proposal being granted the necessary permits by the Environment Agency.
Nomination
217 The Eco-town masterplan for Whitehill Bordon has identified an area to the north of the 340 hectaredevelopment master plan, that may be suitable for a selection of waste facilities.
Site history & background
218 Whitehill Bordon was awarded Eco-town status in July 2009, which will lead to the building of up to 5,500new 'green' homes on land comprising existing urban areas and a large MoD training facility, when thisbecomes vacant in approximately 2014. Due to the proposed expansion in the urban area, a number ofnew waste facilities will be required in order to manage the increased production of waste from an increasedurban population.
Potential uses/ proposal
219 The Eco-town status of the development presents an opportunity for the construction of a number ofpotential waste facilities, including a combined heat and power (CHP) plant with district infrastructurenetwork in order to supply the new dwellings with heat and power created from the combustion of householdwaste or biomass, for example. The increased size of the urban area is also likely to require other wastefacilities such as a new Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC), an anaerobic digestion plant forhousehold food waste and a green waste composting plant.
220 The potential may be to locate all new waste facilities in an integrated waste 'resource park', or alternativelyco-locate small scale waste facilities alongside industrial facilities where 'symbiotic' relationships can becreated, in order share infrastructure or provide complimentary services.

Local authority: Fareham Borough CouncilPlanned new development: To the north of the M27 motorway and comprising 7-8,000 new dwellings andassociated infrastructure.
Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. The siting of one or more waste facilities in this SDA will depend on the final configuration of the Northof Fareham SDA masterplan.
ii. Access arrangements and highways improvements will be a key consideration in determining an acceptablelocation.
iii. Appropriate landscaping will be required if facilities are to be located on edge of development.iv. Delivery subject to a proposal being granted the necessary permits by the Environment Agency.
Nomination
221 A specific site for a waste facility within the North of Fareham SDA has yet to be identified, as the masterplanfor the proposed development has yet to be finalised. The total SDA area is approximately 491 hectares.
Site history & background
222 The North of Fareham SDA is a potential new development containing up to 8,000 new homes, as well asemployment, retail, leisure and open space uses. Due to the proposed expansion in the urban area, at leastone or more new waste facilities will be required in order to manage the increased production of waste froman increased urban population.
Potential uses/ proposal
223 The new development presents an opportunity for the construction of a combined heat and power (CHP)plant with district infrastructure network in order to supply the new dwellings with heat and power createdfrom the combustion of household waste or biomass, for example. The increased size of the urban area isalso likely to require other waste facilities such as a new HouseholdWaste Recycling Centre (HWRC), whilstthere may also be opportunities within the masterplan for an anaerobic digestion plant for household foodwaste, a green waste composting plant and / or a waste water treatment plant with energy recovery formsewage sludge.
224 The potential may be to locate all new waste facilities in an integrated waste 'resource park', or alternativelyco-locate smaller scale waste facilities alongside industrial facilities where 'symbiotic' relationships can becreated, in order to share infrastructure or provide complimentary services.

Nomination
225 This site is part of the MoD's estate in Aldershot, near to land being released on behalf of Aspire Defencefor private redevelopment (known as the Aldershot Urban Extension). This site was identified in 2005 bythe consultants working on behalf of Defence Estates to design a masterplan for the urban extension.
Site history & background
226 The Aldershot Urban Extension (AUE) involves the reuse and redevelopment of former MoD land andbuildings for residential and mixed use development. The masterplan for the development proposes tolocate an on-site waste facility alongside light industrial uses. The proposed site area is 0.8 hectares.
227 A study is to commence looking at access issues to the east of Aldershot, which will include looking at HGVmovements on roads in this area, coming from industrial sites adjacent to the A331 at the end of GovernmentRoad. This study will also look at potential junction / access / capacity improvements to the A331, includingtaking into account the impact of the proposed Aldershot Urban Extension development area (approx.4500 dwellings).
Potential uses/ proposal
228 The site was identified as a possible Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) site to support the futureexpansion of Aldershot (the AUE). Several options were considered as to where a new HWRC to supportthe new community and service north Aldershot should be located. This site (currently redundant militarydepot buildings off Ordnance Road) is the preferred location. This has been formalised by its inclusion ina Supplementary Planning Document adopted by Rushmoor Borough Council(69).

WCC 006 Land at West of Waterlooville MDA
Local authority: Winchester City Council & Havant Borough CouncilPlanned new development: 2000 dwellings (net) and associated infrastructure and employment opportunities.
Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. HWRC would require ample landscaping as a buffer to the planned adjoining areas.ii. Access arrangements and highways infrastructure will need to ensure that this an acceptable location for
use by the public.iii. Delivery subject to a proposal being granted the necessary permits by the Environment Agency.
Nomination
229 This site is located on land known as Old Park Farm, which forms the northern section of the West ofWaterlooville MDA and is to be developed by Taylor Wimpey. A 0.75 hectare site has been identified andallocated within the south west of the Old Park Farm area for the development of a Household WasteRecycling Centre (HWRC).
230 The need for a newHWRCwas identified by Hampshire County Council in 2005, as the existing HambledonRoad HWRC in Waterlooville is both out of date and running at full capacity.
Site history & background
231 The West of Waterlooville MDA was identified within the Hampshire Country Structure Plan 1996 - 2011(Review). Planning permission for a mixed employment and residential use development was granted, forboth Old Park Farm and Plant Farm, in 2006. Within the original planning application for the 38 hectareOld Park Farm development, a specific site was not identified for a HWRC, however following discussionbetween Hampshire County Council and the applicant, Taylor Wimpey, a site was allocated alongside lightindustrial units.
Potential uses/ proposal
232 The proposal is to develop the 0.75 hectare site into a new, split-level, HWRC which will replace the existingoutdated HWRC facility on Hambledon Road. This facility will support the existing population ofWaterlooville and surrounding settlements, alongside the West of Waterlooville MDA.

WCC 020 North of Whiteley MDA Area of Search
Local authority: Winchester City CouncilPlanned new development: 3000 new dwellings and supporting uses
Deliverability & key issues to be addressed
i. The siting of one or more waste facilities in this MDA will depend on the final configuration of the Northof Whiteley MDA masterplan.
ii. Access arrangements and highways improvements will be a key consideration in determining an acceptablelocation.
iii. Appropriate landscaping will be required if facilities are to be located on edge of development.iv. Delivery subject to a proposal being granted the necessary permits by the Environment Agency.
Nomination
233 Winchester's Local Development Framework (LDF) Preferred Option Core Strategy (May 2009) identifiesan area to the north of Whiteley as a possible location for the construction of approximately 3,000 newhomes and supporting uses. This comprises the Major Development Area (MDA) known as North ofWhiteley. Policy SH3 in the Preferred Option Core Strategy indicates the development must be developedas an extension to Whiteley and include the provision of green infrastructure. There is no explicit mentionof waste management facilities within Policy SH3, however the masterplan for the proposed developmenthas yet to be finalised. The total MDA area is approximately 214 hectares.
Site history & background
234 TheNorth ofWhiteley MDA is a potential new development containing up to 3,000 new homes and supportuses, such as schools and transport infrastructure.Due to the proposed expansion in the urban area, newwaste facilities will be required to manage the increased production of waste from an increased urbanpopulation.
235 In December 2009, Winchester City Council granted planning consent for the redevelopment of the existingWhiteley outlet village. This scheme will see the site owners replace the existing retail outlets with a new'town centre' providing shops and services which are suited to a residential area.
236 A consortium of three developers has begun master planning work and public consultation ahead of theformal adoption of Winchester's Local Development Framework (LDF), which is not likely to be until early2012.
Potential uses/ proposal
237 The increased size of the urban area at Whiteley is likely to require new waste facilities such as a newHousehold Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC), since the nearest current site is Segensworth HWRC, locatedjust over one mile to the south of the MDA. In 2009/10 it was the 2nd busiest site in the county’s HWRCnetwork, and which at peak periods of use is already close to its operational limit. The impact of the additionalwaste from the new houses in North Whiteley would very probably exceed the operational capacity of thisexisting facility.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)206
238 The next nearest site is Hedge End HWRC just over 3 miles to the north-west, which is the 16th (out of26) busiest site in the county’s HWRC network. Since it was built there has been intensive housingdevelopment in the surrounding area to the point where it is now effectively in the middle of a housingestate and land locked and as such, offers no potential for expansion and to accommodate the overflowfrom the users of Segensworth HWRC.
239 Therefore, a new HWRC site within North Whiteley MDA, to act as both a replacement for the HedgeEnd site and also to take some of the capacity pressure off the Segensworth HWRC, would be the preferredoption. As such, a suitable plot of land within the MDA, for a new split-level HWRC site to be built on,would be required to be accommodated within the master planning process.
240 TheMDAmay also provide further waste management opportunities to be explored, such as the developmentof an anaerobic digestion plant for household food waste, which could be designed to be sympatheticallylocated within the MDA and provide energy to the new dwellings.

Section 9 Sites nominated for disposal to land
242 The areas nominated for their potential to provide additional disposal capacity (including landfill, land raisingand surcharging) are listed in the Landfill and Surcharging Report(70). A large number of site options have beenconsidered although it is apparent that feasible opportunities are very limited, particularly for non-hazardouslandfill. The majority of the nominations have been considered less suitable at the initial stages due toenvironmental constraints or historic management or enforcement issues at the sites. There are no sitesconsidered suitable as new landfill locations. This is partly due to a lack of likely void capacity (i.e. mineralextraction is not considered suitable).
In terms of inert landfill, there are ten sites (only one is an 'existing site') that may provide potential for increasedinert landfill capacity.
In terms of non-hazardous landfill, there are three sites that have been identified (two are currently permittedfor landfill) that may provide potential for increased non-hazardous landfill capacity.
Non-hazardous is landfilling of wastes such as wood, paper, card, textiles, food and green wastes.
Surcharging involves filling a landfill above the final contours to allow for the subsequent settlement ofwaste. Surcharging of existing landfills requires planning consent from the Minerals Planning Authority, aswell as permit from the Environment Agency.
243 Further discussion of the findings is provided in Section 4 'Key Findings'. The three areas considered fornon-hazardous landfill are shown in the maps below.

Appendix 1 Extract from PPS10 - Site suitability criteria
ANNEX E
Taken from PPS10 (Department of Communities and Local Government, 2011)(71).
Locational Criteria
In testing the suitability of sites and areas against the criteria set out in paragraph 20, waste planning authoritiesshould consider the factors listed below. They should also bear in mind the envisaged waste management facilityin terms of type and scale, taking account of best available technologies (not involving excessive costs). Advice onlikely impacts and the particular issues that arise with specific types and scale of waste management facilities isgiven in accompanying practice guidance.
a. protection of water resources
Considerations will include the proximity of vulnerable surface and groundwater. For landfill or land-raising,geological conditions and the behaviour of surface water and groundwater should be assessed both for the siteunder consideration and the surrounding area. The suitability of locations subject to flooding will also need particularcare.
b. land instability
Locations, and/or the environs of locations, that are liable to be affected by land instability will not normally besuitable for waste management facilities.
c. visual intrusion
Considerations will include (i) the setting of the proposed location and the potential for design-led solutions toproduce acceptable development; (ii) the need to protect landscapes of national importance (National Parks, Areasof Outstanding Natural Beauty and Heritage Coasts).
d. nature conservation
Considerations will include any adverse effect on a site of international importance for nature conservation (SpecialProtection Areas, Special Areas of Conservation and RAMSAR Sites) or a site with a nationally recognised designation(Sites of Special Scientific Interest, National Nature Reserves).
e. historic environment and built heritage
Considerations will include any adverse effect on a site of international importance (World Heritage Sites) or asite or building with a nationally recognised designation (Scheduled Monuments, Conservation Areas, ListedBuildings, Registered Historic Battlefields and Registered Parks and Gardens).
f. traffic and access
Considerations will include the suitability of the road network and the extent to which access would require relianceon local roads.
g. air emissions, including dust
71 Available online at: http://www.communities.gov.uk/publications/planningandbuilding/planningpolicystatement10
223Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Considerations will include the proximity of sensitive receptors and the extent to which adverse emissions can becontrolled through the use of appropriate and well-maintained and managed equipment and vehicles.
h. odours
Considerations will include the proximity of sensitive receptors and the extent to which adverse odours can becontrolled through the use of appropriate and well-maintained and managed equipment.
i. vermin and birds
Considerations will include the proximity of sensitive receptors. Some waste management facilities, especiallylandfills which accept putrescible waste, can attract vermin and birds. The numbers, and movements of somespecies of birds, may be influenced by the distribution of landfill sites.
Where birds congregate in large numbers, they may be a major nuisance to people living nearby. They can alsoprovide a hazard to aircraft at locations close to aerodromes or low flying areas. As part of the aerodromesafeguarding procedure (ODPM Circular 1/2003) (72) local planning authorities are required to consult aerodromeoperators on proposed developments likely to attract birds. Consultation arrangements apply within safeguardedareas (which should be shown on the proposals map in the local development framework).
The primary aim is to guard against new or increased hazards caused by development. The most important typesof development in this respect include facilities intended for the handling, compaction, treatment or disposal ofhousehold or commercial wastes.
j. noise and vibration
Considerations will include the proximity of sensitive receptors. The operation of large waste management facilitiesin particular can produce noise both inside and outside buildings. Intermittent and sustained operating noise maybe a problem if not kept to acceptable levels and particularly if night-time working is involved.
k. litter
Litter can be a concern at some waste management facilities.
l. potential land use conflict
Likely proposed development in the vicinity of the location under consideration should be taken into account inconsidering site suitability and the envisaged waste management facility.

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)224
Appendix 2 Broad categories of waste management facilities
The following information has been used as a guide to inform suggestions throughout the document about thesuitability of the various nominated sites for waste management development.
National guidance suggests plans should not generally prescribe the waste management techniques or technologiesthat will be used to deal with specific waste streams in the area. Rather, the type or types of waste managementfacility that would be appropriately located on the allocated site or in the allocated area should be identified. Localplanning authorities should consider the size, type and mix of facilities when planning for waste infrastructure.
The following summary tables provide information about seven broad types of wastemanagement developmentwhich are considered relevant to Hampshire. The information has been collated using local knowledge and thefollowing publications:
Defra (2010) Guidance on Applying the Waste Hierarchy (consultation draft).Enviros Consulting for ODPM (2004) Planning for Waste Management Facilities: A Research Study.DCLG (2006) Planning for Sustainable Waste Management: Companion Guide to Planning Policy Statement 10.
Each of the broad types of development are necessary to ensure waste is managed at all levels of the waste hierarchy.For instance, facilities are necessary to support activities such as preparing for re-use(73)and recycling(74), recoveryand disposal.
Each of the broad types of development are associated with different potential impacts on the environment andcommunities which need to be appropriately managed. These planning issues are set out in the tables below underthe main themes e.g protection of water resources. For some of the themes, the issue may not be applicable orwill normally be insignificant. For others, development may, under certain circumstances and without appropriatemitigation measures in place, result in significant negative impact. It is important to understand the aspect of thedevelopment which may result in a negative impact (e.g bioaerosals) to inform decisions about whether certaintypes of sites should not be considered suitable for such uses (e.g sites with adjacent residential properties).
73 May involve checking, cleaning or repairing recovery operations, by which products or components of such products that have become waste are prepared so that they can be re-used without anyother pre-processing.
74 Recycling includes the reprocessing of organic material i.e composting (so long as it meets PAS/Quality Protocol standards).
225Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Category 1: Activities requiring open sites or ancillary open areas (involving biologicaltreatment)
Description/overview
Activities requiring space for storage of waste and machinery (e.g recycling crusher and screener;vehicle dismantlers). Open sites can accommodate processing equipment (e.g storage containers/skips, loaders for shipment).Activities similar to some agricultural practices require large openspaces (e.g composting plants using open air windrows (elongatedpiles)). Large areas of land are converted to hard-standing areas forthe running of machinery, and soil and ground water protectionmeasures.Small proportion of the site may include building (e.g. for stafffacilities).
Waste facilities Open windrow composting (composting sites typically require sites 2–3 hectares)Aggregate recycling/ construction and demolition waste processing (typically require 2 hectares orgreater)Processing incinerator bottom ash (IBA)End of Life Vehicle (ELV) processing/ scrap metal yardSoil hospital (remediation of contaminated soils)Household Waste Recycling Centre (Civic Amenity Site) (typically approx. 0.8 hectare site required)
Examples ofwaste streamshandled
Unsorted or segregated household wasteConstruction waste (soils, rubble etc)Incinerator bottom ashScrap vehiclesBiodegradable municipal solid wastes and industrial wastes converted to composted products (gardentype waste collected separately or co-collected with kitchen waste)
Preferredlocations for
Typically located in rural or urban fringe sites (where access is good).Close proximity to development areas (markets) is preferable (it is often not viable to transportmaterials such as recycled aggregate long distances).these activities
(including siterequirements)
Larger scale centralised composting facilities can be located at selected composting sites but smallerfacilities can be located at landfill sites, sewage treatment works, industrial sites and transfer stations.Small scale composting operations are also located on farms, due to their ability to exploit existinginfrastructure, equipment, and labour associated with normal farm activities(75).Aggregate recycling sites and ELV sites can be located on industrial estates alongside heavier industrialuses (affordable sites of an adequate size can be very difficult to obtain for these uses however).Aggregate recycling activities (usually temporary operations) can also be located at mineral workingsand landfill sites and at demolition and construction sites where the spoil is to be used in the projectitself.Rail sidings can be used for activities whereby materials are loaded for shipment to market(transhipment of waste).HouseholdWaste Recycling Centres require good access from the primary road network and sufficientvehicle queueing space.
Locationswhere
Would not normally be compatible with a business park environment or an urban setting, or closeto villages.
activities An appropriate distance of 'buffer' would be required between operations and sensitive receptors.would beunsuitable
Should be located at appropriate distances from sensitive habitats (where there is potential dust andbioaerosol impacts).
75 Most on-farm facilities possess waste management exemptions, and all community-run sites are exempt and so are restricted in size

Examples offacilities inHampshire
Little Bushywarren Copse is a green waste composting site with a capacity of 75,000tpa. It is housedon top of a hardstanding. The site is operated by Veolia.
Summary of planning issues:
Protection of waterresources:
The protection of controlled waters by adequate site surfacing, segregated drainage and containmentare essential in the control of leachate.
Visual intrusion: Traditional windrow composting plants can blend in with rural development due primarily to theirlow profile structures and their similarity to other rural developments (e.g. farms). Compostingoperations have a low height profile as they do not require tall buildings or other structures.Appropriate screening (e.g. tree planting) can help to minimise any potential adverse impact.Aggregate recycling operations are predominantly industrial by nature, noisy and without mitigationhave the potential to be visually intrusive. Suitable screening is often required.
Natureconservation:
Aggregate recycling operations are predominantly industrial by nature, noisy and without mitigationhave the potential to be dusty and disturb wildlife.
Historicenvironment &built heritage:
An archaeological watching brief might have to be accommodated during any topsoil stripping(especially for undeveloped land).
Traffic & access: Requires good access from primary road network and access roads which are free from restrictionsfor HGVs.Vehicles should be routed away from inappropriate roads, such as sensitive residential areas andschools.Vehicle numbers depends on the size and scale of the operation.
Proximity toreceptors:
Facilities which accept organic waste, can attract vermin and birds.Where possible facilities should be located at least 250 metres from sensitive properties, which mayinclude business premises(76).Composting- bioaerosols may be carried in the air as spores or microbes, on fine dust particles ortiny water droplets. Environment Agency (EA) research suggests that bioaerosol levels are likely tobe equal to or below natural levels within 250metres of a composting operation. If mitigating measuresare taken this distance may be reduced.Dust production potential is highest when materials are allowed to become too dry, and duringshredding, turning, and screening. Dust can also be created by vehicle movements on site.Odour production occurs when fresh and partially composted materials are allowed to sit for excessiveperiods of time without aeration, or if materials become too wet. This can lead to anaerobicdecomposition (at a well-run facility this will not be an issue as anaerobic conditions are kept to aminimum through minimum storage periods of fresh waste).Typically noise limits are either set at site boundaries or at sensitive receptors and these limits areusually based on target levels at agreed properties.Dust and bioaerosol emissions associated with composting may produce health concerns, reflectedin the Environment Agency 250 m rule with regard to sensitive receptors and the need for riskassessments and mitigation measures required for bioaerosol production.Aggregate recycling activities should not cause unacceptable harm to the environment or residentialamenity from noise, dust or heavy traffic. Careful plant siting and management will help to mitigateeffects of dust produced from aggregate recycling.
76 Site specific risk assessment needs to be a condition if composting operations are to be located within 250 metres of any working or dwelling place.

Category 2: Activities requiring open sites or ancillary open areas (not involving biologicaltreatment)
Description/overview
Activities which involve temporary storage of waste usually consistof buildings where vehicles deliver waste either onto the floor, intobays, or into compaction units. Inert wastes in particular may betransferred to such sites and stored in the open.Facilities may require extensive plant and specialist machinery.For instance, hard standing areas to site recycling bins, skips andpossibly compactors which can be fully/partially enclosed or open.Unsorted waste may be stored in open bunkers or skips, housedwithin a building. Facilities may be co-located on sites (e.g storage alongside a Waste TransferStation).Sites usually require a minimum of 0.5 hectares (but size depends on throughput).
Waste facilities Outdoor Waste Transfer Station (where space required for open storage).Anaerobic digestion (AD) plant (small scale) (agricultural/ rural locations) (unsorted waste, segregatedwaste and residual waste may be stored in open bunkers, possibly outside).Enclosed composting systems(77).MBT (Mechanical Biological Treatment) plant (including biological treatment e.g. AD)(78).Sites for aggregating waste wood (sorting and processing).Biological treatment of liquid waste and leachate (can involve enclosed buildings and tanks in openareas).Wastewater Treatment Works.
Examples ofwaste streamshandled
Unsorted or segregated household or commercial wasteGreen wasteSpecialist wastes (e.g. liquid waste and leachate)
Preferredlocations for
Enclosed composting facilities are suited to areas allocated for employment/ industrial uses in urbanareas, and are compatible with the more intensive B2 activities under the Use Classes Order.
these activities Small scale AD plants (throughput of circa 5000 tones per annum) can be located on sites less than0.5 hectares (Wastewater Treatment Works in particular can provide suitable locations).(including site
requirements) Facilities to recycle agricultural waste can be located on farms (digestate from AD plants maybeused by neighbouring farms).Options for locating wastewater treatment plant are very limited and are typically linked to existinginfrastructure.
Locationswhere activities
An appropriate distance of 'buffer' would be required between operations producing bioaerosols/odours, and sensitive receptors.
would beunsuitable
Should be located at appropriate distances from sensitive habitats (where there is potential dust andbioaerosol impacts).Facilities involving open-air activities with potential to generate noise would not normally becompatible with a business park environment, an urban setting, or close to villages.
Examples offacilities inHampshire
Wallington Depot is a multi use site with integrated waste recycling and transfer, includingconstruction and demolition, commercial and industrial wastes and aggregate recycling. The natureof the site means it requires both internal and external work areas.
Summary of planning issues:
77 e.g. In-vessel composting (IVC) allows collected food waste to be composted on a large scale. IVC is not considered as environmentally beneficial as anaerobicdigestion. For effective waste handling, a covered waste reception area, as well as hard standing for post composting and a covered storage area are needed.
78 The term ‘mechanical and biological treatment’ (MBT) is commonly used to describe a hybrid process which combines mechanical and biological techniques usedto sort and separate mixed household waste.
229Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Protection of waterresources:
Outdoor transfer stations typically require drainage systems to ensure that dirty waters are dealtwith appropriately.
Visual intrusion: The presence of waste materials stored/ handled outside may lead to impacts on landscape characterand visual amenity, but this should not be significant in industrial locations.AD plants do not include a stack, but tanks can measure around 6 metres.New lines or cables used to connect the AD plants to the National Grid for electricity transfer willalso have an impact on visual amenity both on and off site.
Nature conservation: Whilst the anaerobic digestion process itself is enclosed, some fugitive emissions may arise (impactsof sensitive habitats would need to be considered).Waste water from some activities may contain contaminants and cause pollution to nearby riverhabitats (often therefore treated on site).Routing arrangements for transfer stations may be necessary to avoid air quality effects on sensitivehabitats.Operational plant failure could increase the risks to local ecosystems (e.g. odour from AD plants).
Historicenvironment &built heritage:
The significance of any impacts is dependent on the site setting, i.e. the proximity of listed buildingsand/or conservation areas.
Traffic & access: Transfer routes away from residential areas are preferable. Limits on vehicle movements can alsoassist in mitigation of traffic impacts.
Proximity toreceptors:
The handling of waste and the movement of vehicles may give rise to dust.Facilities which accept organic waste, can attract vermin and birds.Noisy activities are those such as vehicle manoeuvring areas and glass bottle banks. Design of sitesmay include the use of acoustic enclosures and physical barriers, as well as the location of operationsthat will give rise to noise as far away as practically possible from sensitive receptors.Bioaerosol emissions associated with facilities accepting organic waste (e.g. AD) may produce healthconcerns, reflected in the Environment Agency 250 m permitting rule with regard to sensitivereceptors. To reduce risks, segregated waste can be tipped directly into a sealed conditioning tank,and there is no storage of untreated waste outside the building.Enclosure of In-vessel composting (IVC) components allows for the further control of nuisance,including noise and dust.Litter picking, as well as ensuring that servicing vehicles are adequately sheeted/contained will helpto contain litter.

Category 3: Activities requiring enclosed industrial premises (small scale)
Description/overview
Waste developments are increasingly enclosed within new orexisting structures, often sited on brownfield or industrial land;allowing for a large proportion of the perceived issues/problemsto be mitigated for, i.e. dust and noise.'Small scale' enclosed premises are typically <1-2 hectares(throughput of approx. 50,000 tonnes per annum).Usually located on industrial estates.Enclosing activities helps to mitigate against many noise/odourissues.
Waste facilities Plant for Refused Derived Fuel production (small scale e.g. Mechanical Heat Treatment/Autoclaving)(79). Autoclaving is a pressurised steam treatment process that can produce fuel pelletsor pulp (by 'cooking' waste).Dis-assembly and re-manufacturing plant (Waste Electronic & Electrical Equipment recycling).Enclosed waste transfer station (designed to process dry, separated recyclables).Small-scale recyclables processing facility.
Examples ofwaste streamshandled
All types of non-hazardous waste typically handled (e.g. dry mixed recyclables)Inert waste may also be handled (e.g. sorting of construction waste, glass etc)Clean waste wood can be handled for recyclingWaste Electronic & Electrical Equipment
Preferredlocations for
As activities can be similar to other industrial activity, these facilities can be located on land previouslyused for general (B2) industrial activities or B1 uses (light industry appropriate in a residential area).
these activities The requirement for good transport infrastructure is essential and therefore, where possible, shouldbe located close to the primary road network or have potential access to rail.(including site
requirements) Placement of sites near to the source of waste is increasingly important, by limiting movement ofwaste from source the impact of sites decreases.

Sites with existing access issues should be avoided where possible.Areas should be avoided where facilities seeking expansion of existing hardstanding would encroachinto floodzones.activities
would beunsuitable
Examples offacilities inHampshire
The Crompton Way site is situated within one of the units on the Segensworth Industrial Estate andacts as a transfer station for clinical waste. It is operated by Rentokil Initial.
Summary of planning issues:
Protection of waterresources:
Most recycling facilities are under cover and on concrete hard standing with separate foul waterdrainage, rainfall is unlikely to come into contact with the waste materials (water pollution is unlikely).The incorporation of both a building and often hardstanding area can increase potential risk offlooding elsewhere and this would need to be considered as part of the Strategic Flood RiskAssessment.
Visual intrusion: If sited in an industrial setting remote from residential areas impacts are likely to be minimal.
Natureconservation:
Air quality and other impacts will not be a significant issue for recycling facilities (due to the typicalabsence of bio-degradable wastes).
79 Refuse-derived fuel, (RDF), is made by refining municipal solid waste in a series of mechanical sorting and shredding stages to separate the combustible portion ofthe waste. Either a loose fuel, known as fluff, floc or coarse RDF (c-RDF), or a densified pellet or briquette (d-RDF) is produced.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)232
Historicenvironment &built heritage:
The significance of any impacts is dependent on the site setting, i.e. the proximity of listed buildingsand/or conservation areas.Visual impacts may be reduced by appropriate siting, sensitive building design and appropriate useof cladding and colour treatments.
Traffic & access: Sites need to be suitable for use by HGVs. Sites should normally be located close to the primaryroad network.
Proximity toreceptors:
Enclosure of operations within a building is the primary means of preventing odour and dust impacts.The movement and unloading of trucks/transport may have potential to create noise.

Category 4: Activities requiring enclosed industrial premises (large scale)
Description/overview
Large buildings required to process mixed waste primarily viamechanical and/or biological means.Various physical separation and waste reduction techniques can beused either as stand alone operations or in combination. Suchactivities are typically housed in an enclosed 'warehouse' typebuilding.'Large scale' enclosed premises typically require site of 2-4 hectares(throughput can be up in excess of 100,000 tonnes per annum).

Alton Materials Recovery Facility has a capacity for 85,000tpa and is located within previouslydeveloped land to the north east of Alton. It forms part of the Project Integra infrastructure forwaste management in Hampshire and has been processing Hampshire’s waste since it’s opening in2004. It is housed in a large building and has limited impact on its surrounds due to its well chosenlocation and the conditions applied to it during planning permission approval.
Summary of planning issues:
Protection of waterresources:
Most recycling facilities are under cover and on concrete hard standing with separate foul waterdrainage, rainfall is unlikely to come into contact with the waste materials (water pollution is unlikely).The incorporation of both a building and often hardstanding area can increase potential risk offlooding elsewhere and this would need to be considered as part of the Strategic Flood RiskAssessment.
Visual intrusion: AD plants do not include a stack, but tanks can measure around 6 metres.Recyclables processing facilities are generally housed in large warehouse type buildings.If sited in an industrial setting remote from residential areas impacts are likely to be minimal.Public concern can be generated by the visual appearance of a facility.

Category 5: Activities requiring enclosed building with stack (small scale)
Description/overview
Plants with a throughput of approx. 50,000 tonnes per annum.Smaller scale thermal treatment facilities are often designed to receivea specific component of the waste stream.Can offers a waste management option which is more likely to beaccepted by local residents. Energy is generated.Often combustion chambers are fired up according to the need torespond to fluctuations in the supply of waste.Gasification is a thermal process in which carbon is converted to asyngas leaving a solid residue.Pyrolysis takes place either in the complete absence of oxygen or with limited oxygen.Require site of <1-2 hectares.
Waste facilities Pyrolysis and gasification technologies (advanced thermal treatment).Small scale incinerator.Small thermal plants (Combined Heat & Power plant)(81).Small thermal treatment plants (furnaces or kilns) are also used to treat clinical wastes at hospitalsites.
Examples ofwaste streamshandled
Capable of handling a wide range of waste materials.Can be specifically designed to take a pre-processed feedstock or refuse derived fuel (RDF) (seecategories 3 and 4 above).Can be used to treat clinical wastes at hospital sites.Unburned residue (bottom ash) is produced after combustible material is burnt.There are three products of pyrolysis: gas, liquid and a solid known as char.
Preferredlocations for
Localities which are as close as possible to the source of waste arisings in order to minimise transport.Sites which offer the potential for CHP and export of energy to businesses which would otherwiseuse fossil fuel sources. May also be considered as part of large scale residential developments.these activities
(including siterequirements)
Can be more suited to rural areas and areas of dispersed population centres than large-scale facilities.Most small thermal plants have been designed to treat specific industrial waste streams as part ofcombined heat and power (CHP) arrangements. CHP may be connected to existing decentralisedenergy networks in town and city centres for instance.Preference should be given to areas allocated for business use or in traditional commercial/industrialurban areas.Existing waste sites should also be considered. Plants can be located alongside modern industrialbuildings or as a part of business parks where CHP potential can be developed.Pyrolysis and gasification- the scale of individual buildings and process components is likely to becompatible with most small/medium sized industrial activities.
Locationswhere
Should be located appropriate distances from sensitive habitats and other sensitive receptors (e.gresidential).
activities Safeguarding zones around aerodromes where building height is restricted should be avoided.would beunsuitable
Pyrolysis and gasification facilities should avoid sites closer than 250 m of housing etc where possibleor demonstrate emission standards can be met where closer.
Examples offacilities inHampshire
Broxhead Farm uses existing farm incinerators (thermal treatment) to dispose of imported pet carcasesand associated material.
Summary of planning issues:
81 The revised Waste Framework Directive sets a threshold above which energy efficient municipal waste incinerators can be classified as recovery facilities, and belowwhich they continue to be classified as disposal facilities.
237Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
Protection of waterresources:
Thermal treatment facilities tend to have closed drainage to prevent contaminants entering normalsurface water drainage.
Visual intrusion: Small scale thermal treatment facilities are often modular (several combustion chambers can be placedin parallel).The height of the main boiler unit is smaller than large scale thermal plants (although the stack heightmay be similar).Stack height is determined by the local wind characteristics, topography and relationship to otherbuildings (minimum of 40 metres). The plume from the stack can be visible.Careful site selection and appropriate orientation of the building footprint together with appropriatescreening measures can help to minimise any potential adverse impact.The stack can be disguised by use of architectural embellishment.Building height can be 15-25 metres.
Natureconservation:
Proposals must include a detailed assessment of emissions to air which addresses effects on thenatural environment.
Historicenvironment &built heritage:
Small scale plants have greater potential for integration into the existing built environment and indeedrural or semi-rural settings than large scale plants.Pyrolysis and gasification can be housed in buildings which may be similar to large agriculturalbuildings or industrial warehouses with the addition of a stack.The significance of any impacts is dependent on the site setting, i.e. the proximity of listed buildingsand/or conservation areas.
Traffic & access: If waste feed is from on-site industrial operations then access is not critical.Plants can be served by a significant number of HGVs.Traffic volumes may be significantly reduced if the plant is directly linked to an industrial operation.Mitigation measures should ensure that vehicles are routed away from inappropriate routes andsensitive residential areas and schools.
Proximity toreceptors:
Scale and environmental performance standards should enable well-designed plants to be locatedclose to houses etc, particularly when part of a CHP/district heating scheme.Air emissions represent a significant public concern issue- air quality impact assessment likely to berequired.All waste incinerator plant emissions will be regulated through the Pollution Prevention Controlregime enforced by the Environment Agency. Waste incineration plants are required to operate toair emission standards set by the EC Waste Incineration Directive.Compliance with emission limits can be closely monitored by the plant.At a well run facility where stored waste is kept to a minimum, odour and dust problems will not bean issue.Noise from normal plant operations should be controlled to acceptable levels by careful buildingdesign.Wastes can soon start to generate odour and dust problems at pyrolysis and gasification facilitiesduring times of plant failure. At a well run facility this will not be an issue as stored waste is kept toa minimum.

Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)238
Category 6: Activities requiring enclosed building with stack (large scale)
Description/overview
Plants with a throughput of approx. 200,000 tonnes perannum.Plants typically designed to handle large volumes of mixed wastefollowing the ‘mass combustion’ approach.Designed to burn waste as efficiently as possible, usually recoveringenergy.The volume of waste needing disposal following treatment is reducedby approximately 90%, reducing the need for landfill.The whole process is typically contained within a single building.Legislation requires that all new and existing plants operate to extremely high environmental standards.Require site of 2-5 hectares.
Waste facilities Energy Recovery Facility ('mass burn' with energy generation)(82);Fluidised bed incinerators generally require some form of refuse derived fuel (RDF).Biomass plant (including proportion of waste biomass feedstock)
Examples ofwaste streamshandled
Can receive between 90,000 and 600,000 tonnes of waste per year.Capable of handling a wide range of waste materials.Contaminated paper (e.g. with grease from food) can be more suited to energy recovery.
Preferredlocations for
Often located in or near urban areas.Compatible with the more intensive Class B2 activities under the Use Classes Order.
these activities Existing waste sites should also be considered.(including siterequirements)
Should be located as close as possible to the source of waste arisings in order to minimise transport.Should be located on sites which offer the potential for combined heat and power (CHP) and exportof energy to nearby businesses.
Locationswhere
Not normally be compatible with a hi-tech business park environment or a rural/semi rural setting.Should be located appropriate distances from sensitive habitats and other sensitive receptors (e.gresidential).activities
would beunsuitable
Safeguarding zones around aerodromes where building height is restricted should be avoided.
Examples offacilities inHampshire
Marchwood Energy from Waste Facility operates as part of the Project Integra infrastructure and issituated in the Marchwood Industrial Park. It has capacity to process 165,000 tonnes per year resultingin the generation of approximately 14Mw of electricity. On site there is also a transfer station thatcan handle 25,000 tonnes per year of waste that is not suitable for incineration.
Summary of planning issues:
Protection of waterresources:
Information on drainage arrangements should be included in planning application.
Visual intrusion: Buildings can measure up to 30 metres.Plants are typically characterised by large building designs and may not blend in with surroundingdevelopment due primarily to the size of the stack and boiler house elements of the plant.Potential for significant impacts on both landscape character and visual amenity. Plume visibilitymay be a particular problem in some locations.Design-led solutions would be necessary in certain locations where the building would be seen as aprominent landmark feature.
82 The revised Waste Framework Directive sets a threshold above which energy efficient municipal waste incinerators can be classified as recovery facilities, and belowwhich they continue to be classified as disposal facilities.
239Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)
The height of the stack is determined by certain factors e.g based on air dispersion modelling.Careful site selection and appropriate orientation of the building footprint together with appropriatescreening measures can help to minimise any potential adverse impact.
Natureconservation:
New large scale incinerators will require EIA (Environmental impact Assessment)- ecological studiesmay be required.Proposals must include a detailed assessment of emissions to air which addresses effects on thenatural environment.
Historicenvironment &built heritage:
A large built development of this nature means that there is the potential for significant impacts onvisual amenity. The significance of any impacts is dependent on the site setting, i.e. the proximity oflisted buildings and/or conservation areas.
Traffic & access: Requires good access from primary road network and access roads which are free from restrictionsfor HGVs. Consideration should be given to sites which offer the potential for rail transfer.Nature and volume of vehicle movements will be determined by the volume throughput of the plant,and nature and source of the waste.Vehicles should be re-routed away from inappropriate roads and sensitive residential areas and schools.
Proximity toreceptors:
Air emissions represent a significant public concern issue- air quality impact assessment likely to berequired.All waste incinerator plant emissions will be regulated through the Pollution Prevention Controlregime enforced by the Environment Agency. Waste incineration plants are required to operate toair emission standards set by the EC Waste Incineration Directive.Compliance with emission limits can be closely monitored by the plant.Where possible facilities should be located at least 250 metres from sensitive properties or demonstrateemission standards can be met where closer.At a well run facility where stored waste is kept to a minimum, odour and dust problems will not bean issue.Noise from normal plant operations should be controlled to acceptable levels by careful buildingdesign.

Category 7: Landfilling
Description/overview
Modern landfill practice requires a significant degree of engineeringin order to contain tipped waste, control emissions and minimisepotential environmental effects.The majority of landfills are operated on a phased cell systemwhereby,as one cell is being filled, another is being prepared, and another isbeing completed/ restored(83).
Wastefacilities
Waste disposal mainly below ground level (infilling a void). Landraise, also generically referred to aslandfill, refers to waste disposal mainly above pre-existing ground levels.The primary by-products where biodegradable materials are disposed of are landfill gas and leachate(requiring ancillary operations including abstraction systems).Inert waste can be used to restore minerals workings.Sites may include a separate protective cell for hazardous materials.
Examples ofwaste
Most types of non-hazardous waste may be disposed of via landfill although as disposal is increasinglydiscouraged, the future role of landfill is likely to be limited to the residues of other waste managementoperations such as incinerator ashes and materials recovery facility (MRF) rejects etc.streams
handled Hazardous wastes (although certain hazardous wastes are banned from landfill disposal).Inert waste (non-biodegradable) is a restoration material and is not classed as landfilling.
Preferredlocations for
Landfill sites sited where an existing void is available, such as in existing mineral workings.The location of land-raise sites is less limited and may include derelict land, or extensions to existinglandfills.these
activities Landfill sites tend to be located in rural areas.(including Range in size from just a few hectares (Ha) to over 100 Ha. The larger sites are more economically
viable.siterequirements)
Locationswhere
Sites close to housing, commercial or recreational areas etc. should generally be avoided.Areas overlying principal aquifers or close to potable waters should also be avoided,.
activities Sensitive habitats should be avoided.would beunsuitable
Bird strike’ zones around aerodromes should be avoided.
Examples offacilities inHampshire
Squabb Wood is a non hazardous landfill in Test Valley that is filling the void left behind after thegravel extraction on site ended.
Summary of planning issues:
Protection ofwater resources:
Potential effects on water resources are controlled under legislation.Significant buffer zones/intervening impermeable geology or improved containment may re requiredto protect groundwater.Contaminants can cause significant pollution if allowed to escape in uncontrolled amounts to eithersurface waters (lakes, ponds or rivers) or groundwater.Surface run-off from landfill sites may also be a potential source of contamination to local watercourses.Landfill activities may also disrupt surface and groundwater flows by altering local topography,excavating below groundwater levels and via dewatering operations.
83 Cells are holes which are lined with a waterproof liner and contain systems to manage landfill gas and leachate/ liquids. When complete the cells are covered withclay to seal the waste.
Assessment of Sites and Areas for Waste Management Facilities in Hampshire (v5)242
Visual intrusion: Landfilling activities are often utilised to reprofile and landscape derelict land or mineral voids leadingto landscape improvement in the long term.The size of sites means that there is the potential for significant impacts on both landscape characterand visual amenity.Restoration is usually phased and designed to reflect previous land-uses and complement thesurrounding landscape.
Natureconservation:
Potential for direct land-take of habitats and destruction of hedgerows and trees etc.Indirect effects on local ecology and species may also occur through pollution of water courses, dustdeposition and human disturbance etc.Completed and restored cells can often provide habitats for a wide range of wildlife including protectedspecies such as adders, badgers, various birds and insects along with flowering plants.Ecological studies may be required.
Historicenvironment &built heritage:
Related excavation may represent an opportunity for archaeological investigation.On land-raise sites any existing archaeological resource may become sterilised.
Traffic & access: Ideally accessed via good quality A/B class roads, or a primary road network free from restrictions onHGVs.Vehicles may be re-routed away from inappropriate routes and sensitive residential areas such asschools.
Proximity toreceptors:
Atmospheric emissions from new (and, progressively, existing) landfills are controlled under regulationsby the Environment Agency (including via landfill gas risk assessment).Disposal of fresh wastes or specially odorous wastes may also potentially cause odour problems (mostodour problems may be overcome with good site and landfill gas management procedures).Dust is controlled and not usually considered a significant problem.Birds such as gulls may be attracted to landfills where they may constitute a hazard to aircraft (whennear airports) and a nuisance to local residents via soiling from bird droppings. Where nuisance doesoccur enforcement may also be carried out.Typically noise limits are either set at site boundaries or at sensitive receptors and these limits areusually based on target levels at agreed properties.Noise mitigation measures may include the construction of noise bunds, regular plant maintenance,vehicle/plant silencing and limitation of operating hoursLitter issues are controlled in a similar way to noise, dust and odour.Sites should be located over 250m from housing to help control a range of impacts (e.g landfill gashazards).
11 Please see Section 9 'Sites nominated for disposal to land' to see the proposed landfill site.

Appendix 3 Nominated sites considered less suitable
1 The sites detailed below have been classified as 'nominations considered less suitable' based upon their siteassessment criteria, this can include sites where the proposed site is too small for any significant wastedevelopment or sites that were proposed have subsequently been developed with other uses, or it could bethat the original site nominee is no longer promoting the site.
2 Details of site assessments vary depending on the final reason as to why the nominated sites were consideredless suitable. Those that have ecological, water based problems or considered less suitable (ruled out) onplanning grounds will have a description detailing the desktop assessment, however those that are consideredtoo small or are no longer available will not have this level of detail, but may refer to other studies detailingwaste category assessments.
3 The following sites are listed in alphabetical order by the local authority area within which they fall. Mostof these sites have been consulted on previously as part of the 'Issues and Options' consultation stage in2006 and 2007. Since this period, in most cases further information has become available about the sites.Indeed, this study takes account of the comments received previously about those nominated sites consideredsuitable, and takes the site assessment process to the next stage.
4 Amap showing the location of all those nominations considered less suitable can be seen at the end of table8.
