Contents

This report has been prepared to accompany the planning application for Corby Limited’s proposed

Energy Recovery Centre at its site in Shelton Road, Corby, within the Willowbrook Industrial Estate.

It details the pre‐planning consultation work that the applicants have undertaken with the local

community and the responses received.

The community consultation was undertaken by Quantum Public Relations on behalf of Corby

Limited during January and February 2019.

This report sets out the activity that was undertaken to communicate the plans for the proposed

Energy Recovery Centre. The report also contains the feedback that has been received in response

to the consultation. This feedback was received via questionnaire, telephone, website and email.

The plans and the public exhibition were widely publicised through an advert in the local paper

(the Northamptonshire Telegraph, readership 66,621), a press release to local media, individual

leaflets delivered to 3,500 residents and local businesses neighbouring the site, a letter sent to

42 stakeholders, an email sent to 13 stakeholders, and through the website.

The exhibition was attended by 64 people and 19 forms were completed.

This document lists all of the feedback received during the consultation and the appendices

include copies of the consultation materials produced, including; the leaflet, press advert, press

release, exhibition boards, consultation questionnaire and invitation letter, as well as an example

of press coverage published ahead of the exhibition.

Executive Summary


To determine the pre‐application consultation activities, the applicants have followed

Northamptonshire County Council’s Statement of Community Involvement (SCI). The Council has

devised a set of guiding principles for the SCI to make sure that community involvement in the

planning process is as effective as possible.

Northamptonshire County Council’s SCI states:

“Where a proposal is deemed to be significant by the planning authority, developers/applicants will

be expected to undertake community engagement and involvement drawing up their proposals.

Developers/applicants will need to submit with their planning application a ‘Statement of Local

Engagement’ showing how they have engaged in the community in their proposals and how it has

changed as a consequence.

Various methods may be used by developers/applicants in seeking to involve the community at an

early stage in drawing up their proposals. The following methods, and others, could be used to

engage the community:

Letters and leaflets that together with easily readable plans and diagrams explain proposals

in a clear and straightforward manner.

Public meetings.

Public exhibitions.

Citizen’s workshops.”

The purpose of this consultation was to involve Corby residents and stakeholders in the earliest

stages of discussions about the proposed changes to the development. It was considered

important to seek the views of the public on the proposal, and gather any feedback which could be

used to further develop the plans, mitigating any concerns where possible.

Consultation feedback

“Hi, I was recently made aware of the plans for your new site in Corby. I noticed on the website

though that in your 'location' tab the image was very old and outdated, it is missing all the new

housing that has been built very close by to the site that could be effected by your plans! This must

have been down to your web developer using the wrong asset or something, its an easy mistake to

make for somebody who was clearly making their very first website, so I have corrected the image

for you and attached it for you to use, to better reflect the local area that might be affected by your

plans. Thanks”

“Good morning Jessica, Thank you for your email, we'll look into the matter. Kind regards, Corby

Limited Team”

“Thank you for your email and letting us know Councillor Rahman, Mayor is unable to attend the

event next week.

Please get in touch if you require any further information. Kind regards, The Corby Limited team”

Feedback 3:

“Hi, Could I ask if you could pass on my attached CV to your principal contractor for your Corby project, I

am Snr Site Manager qualified to NVQ 6 with experience in Bio‐gasification, and live on Stephenson Way

Corby. Kind regards”

Consultation feedback continued


“Thank you for your email and questions. We cannot comment on the operation of the material

waste centre on Gretton Brook Road. However, at the proposed Energy Recovery Centre (ERC)

odour impacts will be minimised by the design of the facility. All treatment operations will take

place within an enclosed building which will operate under negative air pressure, and the impacts

from odour are considered to be negligible at all neighbouring locations.

The site for the proposed ERC is already a cleared industrial site and the centre will be developed

within the existing site boundary, so will have no further impact on existing wildlife habitats.

A detailed transport assessment has been undertaken, and this has shown that the changes to the

local highway network wouldn't be more than current peaks and troughs, and would have no

effect on highway capacity or safety. This assessment will be scrutinised by the Highway Authority

as part of the determination of the planning application.

Northamptonshire County Council (NCC) gave planning permission to develop an ERC on the

Shelton Road site in 2016 and the site has been allocated for waste treatment in the Local Plan.

The proposed planning application by Corby Limited is required in order to use a different proven

treatment technology for the ERC. As part of its preparation of the planning application Corby

Limited is informing local residents and stakeholders about its plans and hosting an exhibition on

7 February so residents can come along and find out more information. Following this

consultation period, the planning application will be finalised and submitted to the Local Planning

Authority (LPA) for consideration, and there will then follow a further period of consultation

organised by LPA before any decision is made.

Kind regards, The Corby Limited Team”

Feedback 4:

“Hi there,

We are residents of 12 Osprey Drive on Priors Hall Park and directly opposite the proposed ERC site. We

feel we need to make strong objection to this proposal for the following reasons.

1) The area already suffers from a terrible fly infestations and terrible smells from the already existing

Material Waste centre on Gretton Brooke Road. Why would this proposal even be considered when all

complaints to the Environment Agency have so far done nothing??

2) Disruption to wildlife in the area has already had a massive impact with all the development in the

area. We have witnessed hundreds of wild deer in the area reduce and seen them killed by traffic. It’s just

horrific and this proposal further impedes their habitat as would construction on the site.

3) Busy traffic times are already chaos on Steele Road, having waste trucks come and go is going to do

nothing to relieve the situation not to mention even more air pollution caused by waste trucks and

stinking waste.

4) We feel that this huge decision is being made without due consultations with local residents. At no

point have we received formal notice of these plans.

We would like to know if the council has already approved these plans?? Kind Regards,”

Feedback 5:

“Unfortunately I missed your presentation in Stephenson Way , Corby yesterday but would be keen to

learn more of your planned developments for your energy recovery operation at Shelton Road please

....living very close to Corby most of my work is environmental including adding value and providing

better utilisation of ' waste ' materials. Do you have colleagues in Corby with whom I could progress

dialogue as it would appear that energy production from biomass and similar is a viable opportunity to

both reduce on landfill and to generate a more sustainable future ...many thanks and I look forward to

your reply. Kind Regards”

“Thank you for your reply Sir / Madam ( you have not provided a name ) It would be helpful to have

dialogue with someone directly on topics such as emissions ‐ I currently work with a Scandinavian

company who have experience in these matters so perhaps could provide extra help ? Do you have a

colleague who has an office in Corby as I believe that this makes for better liaison ? I have worked in

Corby industry for many years so perhaps can also provide this type of perspective ....”

Cllr Kevin Watt (Corby Borough Council member for Weldon & Gretton)

Asked if Corby Limited intends to offer councillors/residents the opportunity to visit similar ERCs.

Mentioned local questions over transport and emissions. Mentioned that some residents of the

nearby new housing development are quite vocally opposed to the ERC application.

Feedback 1:

Feedback received via hotline

“Dear Cllr Watt,

Thank you very much for your call to the Corby Limited hotline on 25 January. Regarding the

potential for Corby Limited to arrange a visit to a similar energy recover centre, unfortunately

there is insufficient time to organise such a visit as part of the current public consultation exercise.

However, we can see the potential merits of such a visit we will consider whether to organise such

a visit in the future if it will help to alleviate any potential concerns about the project in Corby.

In the meantime, there are plenty of videos online which give a good overview of the technology

and how similar Energy Recovery Centres operate. Please see an example video below, although I

should advise that this plant processes a higher volume of waste than the proposed centre at

Shelton Road:

Media enquiry from Inspiratia.com

Asked various questions concerning the nature of the investment, backers, and construction

timeframes.

Feedback 2:

“Thanks for your call earlier. I have received the following re. the points we discussed. The FAQs

on the website also provide plenty of useful background information, but do let me know if you

have any further questions: http://www.corbyrenewableenergy.com/faqs.html

Is the required funding already in place for the new plant?

Funding is not yet in place for the construction but Corby Limited works with an experienced

group of specialist sector investors who have considerable experience funding UK renewable

energy projects. The chosen technology for the project is well proven and securing the necessary

funding will not be a problem.

Where has the funding come from?

Cory Limited is funded by its principals.

What is the date for the completion of the project, and when will the plant be operational?

Completion of the project is expected within 3 years of the grant of planning permission.

Regards, The Corby Limited team”

A feedback form was available as part of the consultation. 18 forms were completed

at the exhibition and one form was received in the post. The results can be found

below. Please note, comments have been copied verbatim as per the feedback forms.

1. How did you find out about today’s public exhibition?

Internet 5

Newspaper 2

Word of mouth 1

2. Are you aware of the increasing demands being placed on the country’s energy network?

Yes 17

No 2

3. Do you believe this proposal presents a positive way to reduce the amount of waste going to

landfill and generate energy?

Yes 12

No 7



13

4. How well have the following aspects of the proposal been explained?


Need for the facility Transport

Air quality

Visual impact

Site suitability

Technology being

proposed


14



5. What are your views on our draft proposals for an energy recovery facility in Corby?

I am not convinced ‐ particularly in terms of air quality and traffic. 1% effect on traffic may be small but there are

many other 1%'s which are having severe and negative impact on the villages of Weldon and surrounding area.

Much needed

Mixed ‐ environmental concerns are a cause for thought. We have seen the effects from long term waste (steel works

close down)

Looks good.

Don't like them ‐ would like to see such a facility located in a less built‐up area

Increased traffic to the area; worried about air pollution and house prices being affected

Unwanted by a residential estate

NOT WELCOME

Some lower scores were because I didn't raise them while talking to a 'rep'

Proposals look OK but have doubts about the long term correct working of the plant

Looks good. Hope the impact on environment and traffic works out as well as promised. Prevailing wind takes any

discharge to the east i.e. straight on to new housing developments.

1. Why is site so close to schools and major developments?

2. Concerns over increase in daily HGV movements

3. Concerned over visual impact ‐ height of stack

4. Concerned over emissions ‐ hear what you say but what you did no doubt will differ

This is a £50million project, estimated? Private Network distribution of electricity will be costly since businesses will

not wish to pay. Sending electricity to the grid is better, stable load unlike businesses, the way to go!

Do not feel it should be located so close to residential and schools

I am totally against this waste incinerator. It is less than 1 mile from a school. The leaflet posted to houses dictates an

old map of the area. Priors Hall is not even shown. Using oxygen ‐ oxygen is flammable. How will houses benefit from

energy ‐ steam vs. syngas.

I am not convinced that the plant will run efficiently as we have never heard all this previously about an existing

plant.

Don't want it so near to our homes and scools. Go somewhere bigger on the motorways so no harm is done to our

small town.

Our main concern is with the road infrastructure as the road this site comes from is a very busy road and this will

cause additional problems

Recycling should take place locally ‐ energy recovery should benefit local industry. Secure well paid jobs to the town.

15



6. Is there anything extra that you would like to see included as part of our proposals?

Sort out the exit to and from your site

No

What other options have been considered?

NO

Contributions to local communities

Withdrawal

Details of alternative access would benefit from greater explanation

Impact of air quality over local residential areas

Our recycling in Northamptonshire is a positive, higher % than most. Let's make this better by improving and

implementing correct recycling by our council.

Infrastructure will be an issue.

To not propose anymore.

The waste should be used within the county for various projects ‐ road repairs, pathways, cycling tracks, etc.

7.Corby Limited is committed to supporting local community projects in the areas in which it

operates. At this early stage, we would appreciate your views on local Corby projects that could

benefit from trust funding. What projects would you like to put forward for our consideration?

Traffic calming measures and a safe crossing i.e. bridge over the A43 between PHP and Weldon villages

Scouting movement

Lakelands Hospice, Corby

Feel this is a sweetner

Support for Corby's woodlands and Gretton's open spaces (Pocket Park etc)

We have many projects on Priors Hall Park ‐ rather self fund than have that on our doorstep thank you

Please define [what trust funding means]

Is contributing to the building of the Orbital Rd a hook?

Stop this happening.

Waste recycled, reused. Tree / general conservation activities.

8. Additional comments

I am not convinced it will be confined to our county. Past experience has taught me that rules change after these sites

are up and running ‐ much to the detriment of local residents.

16



Very well explained. All questions I raised were fully answered.

NOT WELCOME

Have found Environment Agency a "toothless tiger" so NOT reassured by them!

This project is at a very early stage so more details will emerge later

We do not want this waste incinerator in our town. Never heard of this new technology Steam vs Syngas???

The road infrastructure is our main issue.

Promote Reuse Recycle Reduce.

The objective of undertaking a full consultation was to inform Corby residents and stakeholders

about our proposals and to involve them in the process, explain our plans in detail, listen to

feedback and respond to any questions prior to the submission of a planning application.

Our proposals were widely publicised through a range of channels, with over 3,500 local residents

directly communicated with and tens of thousands indirectly via the media and internet.

The feedback that we have received has been useful when preparing our application as it

highlighted the main areas of concern around transport and air quality. These areas have been

fully addressed within our supporting documents.

Our engagement programme will not stop with the submission of our planning application. Project

updates will continue to be communicated via the website. The dedicated project hotline, email

address and website will all remain active for anyone interested in our proposals to ask questions

and make comments.

In September 2016 NorthamptonshireCounty Council (NCC) approved aplanning application to develop an energyrecovery centre at Shelton Road, withinthe Willowbrook Industrial Estate.

The existing planning consent comprisesgasification technology. In the last twoyears the financial landscape forgasification projects has changed: as arelatively new technology in the UK, withfew existing plants, funders have beenreviewing the performance of recentlycompleted gasification projects beforecommitting substantial funding to newones. At the same time, governmentsubsidies available to gasificationprojects have been removed.

While the financial landscape haschanged, the urgent need for newresidual waste treatment infrastructure inNorthamptonshire has not. Therefore, theowner of the Shelton Road site, CorbyLimited, has decided to submit a revisedplanning application, using a provencombustion technology.

The proposed new energy recovery centrewill feature a local heat and private wirenetwork to provide cheaper and moreenvironmentally sustainable heat, coolingand electricity for local businesses andhousing.

The facility comprises a proven, effectivetechnology, with several similar plantsoperating across the UK and many more inenvironmentally forward thinking places likeScandinavia. The plant will not be reliant onsubsidies.

The key difference in the technology fromthe consented scheme is the use ofadditional oxygen in the energy recoveryprocess.

The facility is designed to treat householdand commercial waste. The plant will nottreat hazardous or clinical waste.

The plant will generate 23MW of cleanelectricity - enough to meet the energyneeds of most of Corby’s homes.

There is a shortage of operational wastetreatment facilities in Northamptonshire asidentified in the adopted NorthamptonshireMinerals and Waste Local Plan (July 2017).

Northamptonshire currently disposes of170,000 tonnes of residual household wasteoutside the county, resulting in additionalcosts and unnecessary lorry miles. This is inaddition to the considerable amount ofcommercial and industrial waste that isexported.

The proposed facility will have a plannedthroughput of 260,000 tonnes per annum,although the actual throughput is expectedto be lower.

The site already has planning permission forthe thermal treatment of waste and is in anindustrial area.

The proposed facility represents aninvestment of around £200 million ininfrastructure that is desperately needed.

The project will provide over 200construction jobs and then 25 long-term,permanent jobs directly at the plant, plus aconsiderable number of jobs ancillary to theplant operation.

This new centre will also bring significantadditional business rates. Following recentchanges in legislation a considerable portionof these rates stay with the Local Authority.

Shelton Road is part of the WillowbrookIndustrial Estate with many businessesusing considerable amounts of energy.

PRESS RELEASE

28 January 2019

Consultation on plans for £200 million Energy Recovery Centre in Corby

The company seeking to deliver an energy recovery centre at Shelton Road in the Willowbrook Industrial Estate is preparing a new planning application to submit to Northamptonshire County Council.

The Shelton Road site already has planning consent for an energy recovery centre, granted in 2016, based on a gasification technology. In the past two years the financial landscape for gasification projects has changed and now the owner of the site, Corby Limited is preparing a new application using a proven combustion technology.

tage of operational waste treatment facilities in Northamptonshire. The Shelton Road site has already been granted planning permission for an energy recovery centre. This new application is proposing a tried and tested technology, used in many similar facilities across the UK, which will help solve the waste issue in the area as well as generate 23MW of clean, renewable energy, rather than relying on

The proposed new energy recovery centre will feature a local heat and private wire network to provide cheaper and more environmentally sustainable heat, cooling and electricity for local businesses and housing.

As part of a consultation programme Corby Limited is holding a public exhibition on:

Thursday 7th February 2019 between 2pm and 7pm at

The Stephenson Way Community Centre, 18-28 Stephenson Way, Corby NN17 1DA

The public exhibition will provide the local community with the opportunity to find out more about the proposal to build an energy recovery centre using residual waste-derived fuel, which would otherwise be sent to landfill, to generate 23MW of base load, clean energy enough to meet the energy needs of most of the homes in Corby.

The proposed facility will process c.260,000 tonnes per annum of waste-derived fuel. The project will create over 200 new jobs during construction and then 25 permanent jobs when it starts operating. In addition, the project will contribute hundreds of thousands of pounds each year in business rates to the local authority.

At the exhibition members of the project team will be on hand to answer any questions the public may have and welcome any feedback about the proposals.

21 January 2019 Dear

Energy Recovery Centre at Shelton Road

Corby Limited is seeking to deliver an energy recovery centre at Shelton Road, Corby which will treat local waste arisings and provide heat and power for the local community. The site already has an existing planning consent, but Corby Limited is preparing a new planning application to submit to Northamptonshire County Council (NCC).

In September 2016 NCC approved a planning application to develop an energy recovery centre at Shelton Road, within the Willowbrook Industrial Estate. The existing planning consent comprises gasification technology. In the last two years the financial landscape for gasification projects has changed: as a relatively new technology in the UK, with few existing plants, funders have been reviewing the performance of recently completed gasification projects before committing substantial funding to new ones. At the same time, government subsidies available to gasification projects have been removed.

While the financial landscape has changed, the urgent need for new residual waste treatment infrastructure in Northamptonshire has not. Therefore, the owner of the Shelton Road site, Corby Limited, has decided to submit a revised planning application, using a proven combustion technology.

Please see the enclosed leaflet for further detail of our new application.

To find out more about the proposal we would like to invite you to a public exhibition that is being held on:

Thursday 7th February 2019 at The Stephenson Way Community Centre, 18-28 Stephenson Way, Corby NN17 1DA

The exhibition will be open specifically for key stakeholders from 1pm and then is open to the local community from 2.00pm to 7.00pm. If you cannot make 1pm you are very welcome to attend the public session. The public exhibition is intended to provide local residents and other interested parties with the opportunity to find out more about the proposal at Shelton Road. Members of the development team will be on hand to discuss the plans and answer questions and will welcome any feedback about the proposal.

Appendix 6 – Exhibition panels 1 and 2 of 6

The centre proposes to treat refuse derived fuel and residual waste after

recycling, which may otherwise be sent to landfill, in order to generate

renewable energy. Our proposed centre will be permitted and monitored by the

Environment Agency. There are many facilities using similar technology

already operating in the UK and throughout the rest of the world.

��&"*!��#&�+�"*'�#��!!�!��"!'�!�

In September 2016 Northamptonshire County Council (NCC) approved a

planning application to develop an energy recovery centre at Shelton Road. The

existing planning consent comprises gasification technology to treat 195,000

tonnes per annum of refuse derived fuel.

In the last two years the financial landscape for gasification projects has

changed: as a relatively new technology in the UK, with few existing plants,

funders have been reviewing the performance of recently completed gasification

projects before committing substantial funding to new ones. At the same time,

government subsidies available to gasification projects have been removed.

While the financial landscape has changed, the urgent need for new residual

waste treatment infrastructure in Northamptonshire has not. Therefore, the

owner of the Shelton Road site, Corby Limited, has decided to submit a revised

planning application, using a proven combustion technology.

��'��

The application site is located within the Willowbrook Industrial Estate on

Shelton Road, approximately 2.2km north east of Corby’s town centre. The

application site has an area of 2.53ha and is in a traditionally industrial part of

the town.

The site is located in the north east of Corby in an area largely dominated by

industrial development. To the west of the site, a large tract of the Willowbrook

East Industrial Estate, extending from Shelton Road to Phoenix Parkway, is

occupied by a car storage and distribution operation. The application site

currently forms part of this operation. In addition, there is a range of light

industrial units within the industrial estate located to the south of the site and

fronting along Steel Road.

To the southeast of the site, there is an extension of the industrial estate withfurther light industrial units, which also share access onto Shelton Road.

Further north of the application site, the partially constructed relief road islocated and Rockingham Motor Speedway is situated to the north east.

To the south of Shell Road, there are further industrial estates whichaccommodate general industrial uses and distribution warehouses includingWeldon North Industrial Estate.

The nearest residential properties are located 750m to the east at Priors Hall.

The proposed new energy recovery centre will be capable of providing

cheaper and more environmentally sustainable heat and power for local

businesses.

The facility comprises a proven, effective technology, with a number of

similar plants operating across the UK and many more in environmentally

forward-thinking places like Scandinavia.

The plant will not be reliant on subsidies.

The key difference in the technology from the consented scheme is the use

of additional oxygen in the energy recovery process.

The facility is designed to treat household and commercial waste. The plant

will not treat hazardous or clinical waste.

The plant will generate 23MW of clean electricity - enough to meet the

energy needs of most of Corby’s homes.

Due to the change in the technology and the intention to accommodate all of

the proposal within a self-contained building, the height of the building will be

increased, along with the stacks. The energy recovery centre will be contained

within the original site.

The proposed plant will generate similar traffic movements to the consented

scheme in the peak hours.

� ��'��!��!�&�.��"+�&.��!�&�%The proposed energy recovery centre will process waste derived fuels in acombustion chamber where oxygen is added to produce temperatures over850°C. The heat from the chamber is used to create steam which is used tomake electricity by turning a steam turbine, as well as producing heat for localnetworks.

�",��"�'��.�,"&�%

The delivery vehicles are weighed when arriving at the facility. Household and

commercial waste is unloaded into a storage pit. The tipping and waste storage

areas are maintained under negative air pressure so that the odours associated

with waste are captured in the combustion process and destroyed.

Once fed into the combustion chamber, waste is combusted in a self-sustaining

process. The heat generated converts water in the steel tube-lined walls into high

pressure steam. The steam turns a turbine-driven generator to produce electricity

for the National Grid which is then consumed by homes and businesses.

All gases from the combustion chamber are filtered and cleaned before being

vented to the atmosphere in line with strict controls monitored by the Environment

Agency.

The UK generated 222 million tonnes of total waste in 2014. Of that almosthalf (46.9% per cent) was recycled or recovered. The proportion that went tolandfill was 23.5% (over 48 million tonnes). The proportion that was used forenergy recovery was just 0.9% (1.9 million tonnes). Once all recyclablematerial has been recovered from waste the only remaining treatment optionsare energy recovery or landfill and energy recovery is to be preferred.

There is a clear, demonstrable need for this facility to help manage Corby andNorthamptonshire’s waste. Currently Northamptonshire has no wastetreatment infrastructure and exports waste across is borders – our facility willhelp fulfil the proximity principle, that waste is managed as close to where it isproduced as possible.

The proposed facility has the potential to treat up to 260,000 tpa comprising ofpre-prepared fuel and residual waste.

The proposed energy recovery centre at Shelton Road will not accept anyhazardous waste, dangerous substances, tyres, asbestos, gas cylinders,radioactive waste, oil, solvents or car batteries.

�!�&�.

The facility will generate 23 MW of renewable energy. Crucially this will bebase load, clean energy that will reduce the need for fossil fuels and is morereliable than intermittent generation such as wind or solar.

A further, very significant, benefit in favour of this development and the

location is its proximity to commercial and industrial uses who can make use

of the surplus heat generated from the facility. This fulfils a key objective of

national and local waste management policy. 23 MW is enough to meet the

energy needs of most of Corby’s homes.

�.��+��"#��'��.��"!�"��%

There is a shortage of operational waste treatment facilities in

Northamptonshire as identified in the adopted Northamptonshire Minerals and

Waste Local Plan (July 2017). The County Council planning policy is clear that

new infrastructure is urgently required.

The proposed facility will have a planned throughput of 260,000 tonnes per

annum, although the actual throughput is expected to be lower.

The site already has planning permission for the thermal treatment of waste

and is in an industrial area.

The proposed facility represents an investment of around £200 million in

infrastructure that is desperately needed.

The project will provide over 200 construction jobs and then 25 long-term,

permanent jobs directly at the plant, plus a considerable number of jobs

ancillary to the plant operation.

This new centre will also bring hundreds of thousands of pounds of

additional business rates. Following recent changes in legislation a

considerable portion of these rates stay with the Local Authority.

Shelton Road is part of the Willowbrook Industrial Estate with many

businesses using considerable amounts of energy.

As a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant, Corby Limited will be able to

provide local businesses with electricity cheaper than they would otherwise get

from the National Grid, ensuring Corby remains competitive against other

locations for further investment and job creation.

Modern energy recovery centres such as the one planned are strictly

monitored by the Environment Agency and comply with all applicable

legislation including control of emissions.

All gases from the combustion chamber are filtered and cleaned before

being discharged to the atmosphere in line with strict controls.

The proposed plans provide for: a Tipping Hall, Bunker, Boiler, Flue Gas

Treatment (FGT) and Turbine Hall. Other structures are provided for including a

fully enclosed bottom ash and APCR (air pollution control residues) loading

and an Electrical Building.

The Boiler/FGT, Bunker and Tipping Halls will have the appearance of a single

structure, albeit with differing roof heights. The Boiler and FGT hall will be the

tallest building on the site, at 39.5m to roof peak and 36.5 m to the eaves, with

both the bunker and tipping halls successively lower.

The Turbine Hall is 21.5m to peak whilst the attached Electrical building will be

8.2m. Finally the Air Cooled Condenser (ACC) is envisaged to be 25.2m to the

top of the windshield.

Also present will be an external national grid substation, gatehouse, ACC, fire

water tank, two stacks and miscellaneous other small items of equipment

(such as an emergency diesel generator, diesel stand, waste water storage pit

etc).

There are to be two stacks, one for each process line with a height of 75m,

which are located closely together.

The building will have an appearance emulating that of a modern

architecturally-designed warehouse. The materials have been carefully chosen

to support this. The objective is to deliver a contemporary, high quality scheme

that will serve as a benchmark for further economic regeneration in the area.

Finally, an administration building and workshops will be located to the north of

the site, and will incorporate an education and visitor centre.

�&�!'#"&��!��''

The internal layout of the Proposed Development has been designed to allow

for all vehicles to enter and leave the site in a forward gear and to prevent any

queuing on the public highway. The proposed development will include

separate incoming and outgoing weighbridges.

The development would result in a small increase in peak hour traffic

compared to the extant car storage use on the site, but would generate about

the same number of peak hour vehicle movements as the recently approved

energy recovery scheme. The changes to the local highway network would be

less than daily variation and would have no effect on highway capacity or

safety.

Our traffic assessment shows that even taking worst-case assumptions the

proposed development would have a neutral effect on the highway network

and a neutral effect on the remainder of the transport network.

We anticipate that this new application will result in 85 HGVs making deliveries

or collections each day, equivalent to 170 arrivals and departures.

In respect of on-site car parking provision, the facility provides for 36 car

parking spaces plus two spaces for disabled drivers. The proposal includes 10

cycle parking spaces and changing / showering facilities for cyclists.

There are no designated landscapes, Conservation Areas, Listed Buildings or

Scheduled Monuments either nearby or within the zone of visual influence. Visual

impacts during construction will be relatively short in duration and shielded by

existing features.

Only the stacks, by virtue of their height, will be a noticeable addition to the

skyline but this will only be seen from a few limited viewpoints in the context of

the existing industrial/commercial townscape. In terms of townscape and visual

impact issues the site is a good location for a development of this nature.

�"*&

Odour impacts associated with the proposed development will be minimised

by the design of the facility and the implementation of an odour management

plan. Residual impacts from odour are considered to be negligible at all

receptor locations.

��&�$*��.

Detailed air quality modelling has been undertaken to predict the impacts

associated with stack emissions from the process. Computer modelling has

been carried out on the dispersion of emissions from the facility which

demonstrates that there will be no unacceptable impacts on local air quality,

public health or nature conservation sites. Maximum off-site impacts are

predicted to be negligible at all receptor locations. Emissions associated with

operational traffic flows associated with the proposed development have also

been identified as negligible.

Public Health England advises that well run and regulated Energy Recovery

Centres (ERCs) do not pose a significant threat to public health. It also states

that the effects are likely to be so small that they would be undetectable.

All ERCs in the UK are tightly regulated and must operate within the national

and EU's requirements as set out in the Industrial Emissions Directive

(formerly the Waste Incineration Directive). The Environment Agency also

carries out spot-checks to ensure that the monitoring equipment is operating

correctly.

Controlling air emissions

There are strict air emissions limits set by regulatory bodies and Corby Limited

will employ state-of-the-art emissions control technology to keep well within

the limits and minimise our impact as far as possible.

Appendix 9 – BBC Radio Northamptonshireinterview transcript

On Thursday 7 February 2019, Alistair Shotliff (AS), Director, Corby Limited discussed plans for the

proposed energy recovery centre on BBC Radio Northamptonshire. He was interviewed by Stuart

Linnell (SL) on the Drivetime Show. A transcript of the interview is below:

SL: A public meeting is being held by developers of a planned energy recovery centre for Shelton

Road in Corby. Campaigners against the plant say they’ll demonstrate outside. Planning permission

for a similar plant had been approved three years ago, but it was never built. This would be a new

planning application. I’ve been talking to Alistair Shotliff, the Director from Corby Limited, the

company behind the plans, and I asked him about the planning that he’d made for the site

previously.

AS: Yes, I believe there have been previous planning consents on the site. This is an amendment to

the existing planning consent which was granted back in 2016.

SL: And when you say amendment, in what way has it changed?

AS: Well, it’s a slightly different technology from the gasification that was previously approved. This

one is a more conventional combined heat and power plant, where we recover the energy from

residual waste after all recycling has been done and generate electricity and heat for use both in

the National Grid and potentially within the local community and the local industrial estate.

SL: A lot of people would refer to that as an incinerator, is that accurate or not?

AS: Well it depends what you mean by an incinerator. We recover the heat from waste. I think

incineration is at the bottom of the hierarchy and not recovery in the sense that the heat and the

electricity is recovered from the residual waste, so no it's not a simple incinerator, it’s a combined

heat and power plant.

SL: Because you know of course that people are objecting on the basis that they fear there will be

fumes and emissions that could be dangerous to public health, dangerous to themselves.

AS: Look, these are amongst the most heavily-regulated industrial processes in the country, the

Environment Agency and central government set incredibly rigorous standards that we have to

adhere to in the operation of the facility. Part of the environmental impact assessment that we are

preparing at the moment looks in a lot of detail at the impact of emissions locally, both on the local

community but also on the ecological areas around the site and obviously if these are found to be

unacceptable then we will not get planning permission, it is as simple as that.

SL: Am I right in thinking that you’re building on what used to be a steel plant, because people are


36


concerned about the contaminated ground that you might be building on and what might happen

to that during the construction phase?

AS: We’re actually building on an old ironworks quarry, where the limestone was recovered for

processing in the adjoining steelworks. The site’s been backfilled in the past, it’s been remediated

previously, we have done a very detailed site investigation to investigate exactly what is in the

ground. We have identified nothing to concern us whatsoever to deliver the facility as we see it.

Anything that we do identify during construction in terms of contamination will of course be dealt

with in accordance with normal practices, but we don’t anticipate finding anything.

SL: And to deal with the other concern the objectors have, vehicle movements, both in the

construction phase I suppose but also once the plant is up and running, they fear there will be a

significant number of vehicle movements, again detrimental to the area?

AS: Again, the environmental impact assessment has to look at the impact on the highways

network in a lot of detail. We’ve done detailed highways modelling, both in terms of where the fuel

could come from, which roads it will take. We estimate that we’re looking at about 85 deliveries a

day over a 10 hour working day, not an extensive use at all, compared to other industrial processes

and the conclusion of that work is that there is a less than 1% increase on any of the local highway

network, other than Shelton Road itself, which is the kind of dead end that comes off Steel Road, to

access the site, and on Shelton Road we add about 7% to the existing use, so again it’s not a

significant contribution, so no we don’t believe it’s going to be a significant impact on highways in

the area.

SL: What's the process, the procedure, the timescale forum now on?

AS: Well obviously we’re going through the environmental impact assessment at the moment, that

has to be a very careful and diligent process. We’re going through the public consultation, we’ve

actually got a consultation session going on underway at the moment in Stephenson Way, which is

very well attended I’m pleased to say, and from that process we will then conclude the

environmental impact assessment, ready to submit the planning application probably sometime in

the spring. We’re then in the hands of Northamptonshire County Council to determine that

planning application.

SL: And when do you envisage that the plant will be built and up and running?

AS: Assuming we get planning permission late summer, we anticipate we’ll need six to nine months

preparation time where we put the funding in place and all the contracts and construction in place,

we satisfy all the reserved matters under the planning application which may require detailed

schemes of working, and then we would commence construction probably early next year.


37


SL: And would you be, presumably, creating new jobs in the area?

AS: Absolutely. It’s a major piece of investment in Corby. We’re spending about £200 million to

deliver the facility. The construction period is about three years, we’re looking at about 200 jobs.

Now, there’s every sense in us making sure that those are local jobs for local people...

SL: And are those jobs, sorry to interrupt you, are those jobs during the construction phase or once

the plant is established, just so we’re clear?

AS: To be absolutely clear, that’s during the construction phase of about three years. Once we reach

kind of steady state operation, we’re looking at 25-30 jobs from skilled and semi-skilled individuals,

and again it’s in the interests of the development that those are local jobs.

SL: Alistair Shotliff, Director from Corby Limited, the company behind the plans for that energy

recovery centre at Shelton Road in Corby.
