The upcoming National Waste Management Plan for a Circular Economy (NWMPCE), which is likely to be made in early 2022, will replace the Southern Region Waste Management Plan 2015-2021 and the regional waste management plans for the other two regions. The NWMPCE will include the new guidance document Waste Management Infrastructure – Guidance for Siting Waste Management Facilities, the scope of which includes broad siting criteria and facility specific guidance for consideration when siting a waste facility. We recommend that reference to this new guidance document be made within Chapter 9 Environmental Infrastructure, in particular within the section relating to Waste Management.
