POLLUTION CONTROL, MONITORING AND REPORTING 4.1 The Operator will ensure that a dynamic risk assessment is used throughout all treatment activities. 5. EMISSIONS AND MONITORING 5.1 Introduction - Emissions to air, land and water 5.1.1 The bespoke permit does not allow point source emissions to air or watercourses or land. All waste will be encapsulated so emissions to air, land and water will be eliminated. 5.1.2 Emissions from waste to land during operations can lead to the pollution of surfaces and groundwater and the air. Waste storage and treatment operations can lead to the production of emissions of dust, aerosols, odour and noise. 5.1.3 The EA requires that the Operator take appropriate measures to control potential emissions to or from the waste operation. The following sections therefore set out the measures that will be taken to prevent or minimise the risk to potentially sensitive receptors. 5.2 Monitoring Control and Reporting of Dust Emissions 5.2.1 The key sources for the generation of dust on site are as listed below: Dust raising from public, haul roads and operational surfaces through vehicle movements; Dust raising from the mechanical loading /unloading of wastes, mixing; Dust raising from the treatment operation; Dust raising from stockpiles. Revision: 01 Approved by: Luke Bridges Date Revised: 03/16 Authored by: Georgia Budden Page 15 of 29 Lockhams Recycling Ltd-Environmental Management System Document: Reference: LR/EF/EMS Procedure/Process: Lockhams Recycling Ltd Environmental Management System 5.2.2 The Operator shall take all appropriate measures to reduce and prevent dust emissions generated by the site. Table 1.4 below sets out the measures that shall be undertaken to control and monitor the release of dust, fibres and particulates. Table 1.4: Measures to Control and Monitor Emissions of Dust Appropriate Measures for Reducing Emissions of Dust Undertake operations within suitable weather windows wherever possible All incoming loads to be tipped in such a way as to minimise dust generation All loading /unloading activities to be undertaken carefully to prevent waste materials being dropped from a height Manage loading operations from stockpiles to mixing plant as above Keep stockpiles with the potential to give dust as small as possible Locate potentially dusty material in sheltered areas if possible and consider covering with a suitable material or cover No storage of waste outside designated containers or stockpile areas Limit vehicle speeds during treatment to reduce dust raising Maintain records of all actions Damp down when dust is a problem Monitoring of aerial emissions Daily visual monitoring of aerial emissions at site boundaries shall be carried out by staff supervising all waste handling operations. TCM /NCP to monitor operations throughout day at the site boundary that is downwind of operations. Observations and weather conditions including wind direction will be recorded by a Site Diary. Complaints to be recorded in the Site Diary 5.2.3 The Operator will take account of the weather conditions and ensure that all waste operations are undertaken in accordance with this information. 5.2.4 The TCM will nominate a person, or persons to be responsible in the absence of the TCM to undertake and record daily random visual monitoring events for dust emissions. Additionally, all operational staff will be made aware of the importance of preventing dust emissions from leaving the boundary of the site. Revision: 01 Approved by: Luke Bridges Date Revised: 03/16 Authored by: Georgia Budden Page 16 of 29 Lockhams Recycling Ltd-Environmental Management System Document: Reference: LR/EF/EMS Procedure/Process: Lockhams Recycling Ltd Environmental Management System 5.2.5 Records of daily monitoring will be made on the appropriate monitoring form and will include the time, date, wind direction, weather conditions, site activities, signature, comments and result at time of inspection. The form is included in Appendix9. 5.2.6 In the event of a complaint the Operator will immediately investigate the source of the dust and whether it is originating from the site. Action will be taken to prevent any further emissions leaving the site. A complaints form will be completed describing the incident and should include details as specified above. A record will also be made in the site diary. 5.3 Monitoring and Control of Odours and Aerosols 5.3.1 The Operator will manage the waste operation in accordance with appropriate measures and the procedures cited in 5.0. 5.4 Monitoring and Control of Noise 5.4.1 Noise and vibration will be maintained at levels associated with normal civil engineering activities. Where the H1 Risk Assessment identifies sensitive receptors in close proximity to the operation the Operator will take all measures to minimise noise impacts to those receptors. 5.4.2 The Operator will ensure that all plant is maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines. 5.5 Monitoring and Control of Litter 5.5.1 The risk of litter becoming a nuisance is considered to be very low because wastes will have been segregated and should not contain litter. However, the potential for litter nuisance will be further minimised with the implementation of the following provisions: 5.5.2 Sheeting of all incoming loads; All incoming loads to remain sheeted until ready to be tipped; Daily inspection of the site boundaries at least once per day, to be recorded in the site diary; Litter picking. On the detection of litter, the Operator shall take action to review the waste management processes at the site and modify or cease handling the waste if necessary in order to minimise the production of litter.

Where necessary foreign material (class x) will be handpicked from the stockpile and put into appropriate skips. 4. Where crushing is required the waste will be fed into a suitable crusher via a loader then restockpiled. 5. The material will then be fed into a Static Screener, where a 50mm vibrating screen and 20mm deck (varies on end product), will distribute products into particle size categories. Speed, angle of screen and size of screen can be altered as required to meet material specifications. 6. An additional screener will be utilised when necessary to increase the range of particle size. 7. All class x (non-conforming items) e.g. plastics and wood etc will be handpicked from stockpile. 8. All class x materials removed will be put into designated skips based on the material type. Waste from all skips will either be recycled or disposed of by a fully licensed operator. 7.3 Range Of Products Produced Lockhams Recycling Ltd has the capability to produce a wide range of material classes. Access to two screeners, crusher and a mobile batching plant will satisfy the demand to meet various product specification needs.

Each load will be given a EWC code. EWC codes are located on the MTN books. Once the load has been categorised it will be tipped in the correct stockpile. All stockpiles are signed for intended material. See below for feedstock categories: • Mixed CD& E Waste • Concrete Waste • Bituminous Bound Waste • Bricks and Masonry • Unbound Granular Materials (including Spent Railways Ballast) • Trench Arising • Secondary Materials 9.6 Re-Inspecting and stockpiling All feedstock materials are separated, to avoid cross contamination. Each feedstock has an assigned area. All stockpiles are signed so any individual on site can identify the material/waste type. During tipping, the load will be inspected by Depot Supervisor and/or vehicle drivers. The following procedure (figure 2) will be followed when tipping. Is the waste acceptable as specified in section 7.1 Waste acceptance criteria? Yes Handpick any foreign material Waste is accepted move to correct stockpile bay No Transfer products into the specified bay for quarantined products Complete a NCN explaining why the waste was non-conforming and hand to the Site Manager Place foreign material in waste skip on site Figure 2 – Procedure for re-inspecting and stockpiling Revision: 01 Approved by: Katherine Haddow Date Revised: 03/16 Authored by: Luke Bridges Page 15 of 36 Lockhams Recycling Ltd Quality Manual Document: Reference: Procedure/Process: LR/EF/QM Lockhams Recycling Ltd Quality Manual All non conforming products will be recorded on an NCN and stored at Junction 9. These will be collected weekly by the Compliance Administrator, who will discuss with the supplier why the load was rejected and the actions required to avoid any further rejections on future loads. The NCN notes will be recorded on Waste Accountant and be held for a minimum of 2 years. 9.7 Production Before production the depot supervisor will check: The stockpiled material is not degrading before it is fed into the process. The material is still acceptable The material is fed in at the right rate The material fed in is quantified The correct machine is being used The machine is calibrated The equipment is performing as expected. Any non-conformant materials will be transferred to a quarantined bay, where it will be treated and sent back to the stockpile or failing quality, back to the supplier or registered waste disposal site. The depot Supervisor is trained to inspect the criteria above. The procedure below will be followed.
