  • Supporting Information for Section 3.3
    Appendix E – Supporting Information for Section 3.3 GHD | Report for Latrobe City Council –Hyland Highway Landfill Extension, 3136742 Gippsland Waste and Resource Recovery Implementation Plan June 2017 Section 6: Infrastructure Schedule Section 6 | Infrastructure Schedule 6. Infrastructure Schedule As a requirement of the EP Act, the Gippsland Implementation Plan must include an Infrastructure Schedule that outlines existing waste and resource infrastructure within the region and provides detail on what will be required to effectively manage Gippsland’s future waste needs. The purpose of the Schedule is to facilitate planning to identify and address gaps in infrastructure based on current status, future needs, and constraints and opportunities. In developing this Schedule, the region has worked with the other Waste and Resource Recovery Groups, ensuring consistency and alignment with the Infrastructure Schedules across the state. A key requirement of the Infrastructure Schedule is to facilitate decision making that prioritises resource recovery over landfilling. To the knowledge of the GWRRG, all relevant facilities currently in existence have been included in the Schedule. It is important to note that inclusion of a facility should not in any way be interpreted as a warranty or representation as to its quality, compliance, effectiveness or suitability. While the GWRRG has made every effort to ensure the information contained in the Infrastructure Schedule is accurate and complete, the list of facilities included, as well as information and comments in the ‘other considerations’ section, should not be taken as exhaustive and are provided to fulfil the objectives of the EP Act. Further information about individual facilities should be sought from the EPA or (where appropriate) owners or operators of facilities.
