Posted on Thursday 28th November 2024
Alan White, Leader of Staffordshire County Council, said:
“Residents have been affected by the terrible odours from this site for too many years, while we have urged both the Government and the regulator to take effective action to resolve the problem permanently.
“The recently published Community Impact Study makes clear the depth of concern there is in the community about the long-term effects of emissions from this site.
“This move brings optimism to residents and, like them, we hope that this is the beginning of the end. We will be watching the situation closely.”
