ANL: The saga continues

ANL Compost Facility, the saga lingers on.
James Lamour-Reid has responded to my e mail requesting what ANL are up to now as a result of the Public Notice in two local papers last week.
IF YOU ARE AFFECTED BY THE SMELL YOU SHOULD READ THIS AND TAKE ACTION.


Australian Native Landscapes Pty Ltd has lodged with VCAT a Request to Amend Planning Permit YR-2004/64 under Section 87 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987.
The application seeks to amend the planning permit to achieve the same works outlined in three applications that were made to the EPA in late February and early March 2009. Those applications were to:
(a) further amend the Pollution Abatement Notice previously issued by the EPA
(b) further amend the Works Approval previously issued by the EPA
(c) issue a research, development and demonstration approval pursuant to section 19D of the Environment Protection Act 1970.
The proposed works are described in a Schedule of Changes as follows:
  • 'Construction of an aerated greenwaste storage building with associated biofilter and leachate tank.
  • Reconstruction of the southern access road in a southerly direction and associated drainage works.
  • Excavation along the northern access road to facilitate the movement of the northern road and construction of a concrete retaining wall.
  • Construction of concrete bases to accommodate active and maturation windrows of aerated composting greenwaste and for siteing (sic) of a large biofilter.
  • Construction of a concrete end wall at the southern side of the active and maturation windrows.
  • Associated electrical, water main, fire services and irrigation systems adjustments.'
