Bradford Waste Management DPD

2. Issues and Options (October 2009)

The first stage in the preparation of this document, the Issues and Options report, was produced in October 2009. This report set out a number of issues surrounding waste management within the Bradford District and potential solutions to those address those issues.

Public consultation took place between October 2009 and January 2010. A summary of the comments received have been published in a 'Statement of Consultation' report.

Sustainability Appraisal Scoping Report

The Sustainability Appraisal Scoping Report forms the first stage of the sustainability appraisal of the Bradford Waste Management DPD. The Report collects together the baseline data and information on other plans, policies and programmes that can have an influence on the production of the Plan. Based on this context, sustainability appraisal objectives and indicators are identified and issues set out to form a draft framework, which will then be used to measure the performance of the plan. The Sustainability Appraisal (SA) also incorporates the requirements of the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA).

The Council previously invited comments on the Draft Scoping Report in August 2007. Following a review of the comments received it was deemed necessary to make some small amendments to ensure that the SA of the Waste DPD is consistent with the SA of the Core Strategy, as well as taking on board the more specific comments received. Consultation on the amended scoping report took place between December 2008 and January 2009. The consultation document can be found below. Please note that this consultation has now ended.
