Thankyou for the help requested at another place, Those interested in SHORT ANSWERS TO COMPLEX PROBLEMS, MOVE ON, THIS IS NOT FOR YOU, Those interested in what is proving to be the 'end-game' in the GARBAGE-DISPOSAL PLANT on the old tank-works,at the meeting last night, Monday 18th, the meeting was informed that the GERMAN MADE RTO (hereafter 'FIRE') would be installed in June, this 'fire' will burn the aerosols that cause the 'stink' suffered these last years since the plant opened,

In post meeting chat, it was discovered that the reason for buying GERMAN was simple, they were less-expensive and THEY had built the ORIGONAL PLANT, but more interesting, and indicative of the heedless incompetance OF LANCASHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL is the fact, that the GERMAN COMPANY has fitted MORE THAN 40 OF THESE GARBAGE PLANTS, across Europe BUT more importantly for residents of Farington-moss EVERY PLANT HAS BEEN FITTED WITH A 'FIRE', to burn the 25% of the composting-plant's that is the STINK, the 75% remaining is METHANE & Hydrogen-Sulphide, the 'rotten egg gas', is scrubbed out, and the METHANE used for electricity generation.

The question to be answered by LCC should be, having wasted several thousand 'people-hours' and thousands of burocrat overtime £'s in futile meetings.

YOU knew that the problem was intensive, you fined GLOBAL RENEWABLES many hundreds of thousands of pounds,

YOU WHERE INFORMED BY TWO LOCAL LIVING ENGINEERS IN THE MEETINGS,and on this blog-site, that the only way to get rid of the 'STINK' was to burn it. yet you persisted in the charade of having high-powered expensive overtime experts go to the meetings to explain WITH GRAPHS AND CHARTS THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM, when everyone there could smell it. YET YOU KNEW THAT ALL OTHER PLANTS IN EUROPE WERE FITTED WITH RTO's

the meetings were told repeatably , that the LCC permitted CARBON-FOOTPRINT would not allow the 'FIRE' to be used, Now, 3 stink-ruined summers later, this gang, ARE going to install a 'FIRE',

The downside is, that LCC are once more showed to be incompetant, THEY knew when they bought this German Plant, that ALL other Europe wide 'plants' had a 'FIRE' to deal with the stink,

BUT their agenda was the blaire/brown one of charging CARBON-TAX by 'landfill' taxes, rather than the world wide-used RUBBISH FOR FUEL, where electricity and heat are a benefit to us, the tax-payer.

The upside is, WHEN THEY INSTALL THE 'FIRE' THE ''STINK' WILL BE NO MORE,

Have a nice-day

As the former Chair of RAWS, who told LCC that smells were a problem in Australia and even had an email from the Church near the site to prove it, I do hope the reference to Blair / Brown wasn't a dig at Labour.


If it was you would do well to remember that the biggest critic of the RAWS campaign, the guy who called all the residents NIMBY but then had the cheek to try and be our PCC was the TORY Tim Ashton.

This whole episode has been tragic. As the only elected member from South Ribble who ever had the chance to vote against the Waste Plant being built in the first place, I hope that these issues are finally resolved for all concerned. Its certainly true that the technology has never achieved what was cliamed back in the early 2000's.
It should never be looked at as a Party political issue though because the entire County Council Development Control Committee(apart from me and one Tory)voted for it. Landfill and Carbon taxes are here to stay whichever party is in control.....

and we all remember the speech before the difficult decision you had to make to support either the residents, who turned out to be right or the council, who ended up paying compensation they wouldn't have had to if the plant wasn't put were it was.

They can get rid of the stink, but the blot on the landscape is still there for the residents of Bispham Avenue to gaze at from their back gardens.
