The role of the Devon Waste Plan is to establish the overarching principles and policy direction for waste planning in Devon, it also identifies strategic sites for energy recovery across the County and a series of planning policies for making decisions on planning applications. The Plan covers the period to 2031.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Devon Waste Plan was adopted in December 2014 and can be found here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Inspector\u2019s Report<\/a> was received following the examination hearings in July 2014 and consultation on the proposed modifications in September 2014. The report concluded that subject to the modifications he recommended, the Devon Waste Plan is sound and legally compliant, providing an appropriate basis for waste planning in Devon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following documents were submitted for examination and as evidence:<\/p>\n\n\n We have all documents used and produced for the preparation of the Devon Waste Plan, if you require a specific document please email wasteplanning@devon.gov.uk<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a <\/span>r<\/span>equirement for planning authorities to review their local plan policies at least every five years. <\/span>As <\/span>such<\/span>,<\/span> it has been necessary to review the Devon Waste Plan. <\/span>A series of topic papers were prepared to present the evidence collated as part of the <\/span>r<\/span>eview<\/span> process<\/span> and <\/span>an overarching summary and conclusions report has been prepared to draw <\/span>together the findings and conclusions.

This Statement reviews data for the management of inert waste and available landfill capacity and discusses potential future capacity requirements, and will be updated as new data are published.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The role of the Devon Waste Plan is to establish the overarching principles and policy direction for waste planning in Devon, it also identifies strategic sites for energy recovery across the County and a series of planning policies for making decisions on planning applications.
