The Environment Agency and AEA invite you to take part in one of a series of workshops to discuss the Delivery of Waste Infrastructure.

We are exploring the barriers and opportunities to the development of major waste processing and resource recovery infrastructure in London and the South East of England, and will be developing recommendations to feedback to the EA, WRAP and central Government on how this infrastructure can be successfully delivered.

16 workshop events will be held between May and July 2012, hosted at many state-of-the-art facilities in the South East region, including visits to Energy from Waste plants, MRFs, WEEE facilities, re-processors, Eco Parks and Anaerobic Digestion plants. The events will include a morning workshop delivered by AEA and Dialogue by Design, to discuss the issues, followed by lunch and an optional site tour to see how business waste of all composition is being effectively treated.

Your views and experiences are very important to us. You can book your free place by filling in the attached form and sending it to waste@aeat.co.uk

Accompanying the booking form you will find attached an extended executive summary, which provides an overview of the work conducted to date and will form the framework for the workshop events. For more information about the events, organisers and work done to date, please visit http://www.aeat.com/cms/developing-waste-infrastructure/

We look forward to seeing you at one of the workshops. Please pass this invitation on to other colleagues who you believe would be interested in these issues.
