In 2007, both Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire County Councils carried out public consultations of the future strategy and locations for mineral excavations and waste processing facilities in their respective counties.
For Chelveston, the proposals that most affect the parish are the two “halves” of the former airfield site, identified as WA8 (for NCC) and WSD33 (for BCC).
In both cases it had been put forward for handling 150,000 tonnes annually of non-inert waste (i.e. not landfill).
BCC/CBC MWDF.
The Central Bedfordshire Council (successor to the Bedfordshire County Council) is currently consulting on the Waste Core Strategy Preferred Options proposals until 12th July. The document can be downloaded here
NCC MWDF.
The MWDF Core Strategy Preferred Options consultation generated over 1,400 responses (mainly site specific), with approx 337 objections to WA8 (Chelveston).
In 2009, NCC consulted on the final locations for the minerals and waste sites. Chelveston is rural site WS12.
The MWDF Core Strategy was adopted by NCC after public examination before a planning inspector on 20th May 2010.
NCC is currently consulting on the Control & Management of Development plan prior to submission until 22nd July 2010. The document can be downloaded here.
