We will then invite questions from the floor. The Council's stated objectives are unchanged as per our previous advice which are:- To select a single site to handle all the waste in all the North Yorkshire and York City area on the Dalton industrial estate site near Thirsk - including large scale incineration, sorting and composting. 

 

This would require transport to and fro the site and in particular from the Rydale District and Scarborough area through Ampleforth, Coxwold and Wass and where applicable down Sutton Bank. Incineration of waste would generate large scale pollution of dairy herds and vegetable crops if mal-administered and or wrongly specified - and we need your support to help us fight for a more rational solution.
