The Loddon Mallee Waste and Resource Recovery Group is inviting waste and resource recovery businesses and local government to submit applications to provide landfill infrastructure to meet the region’s needs up to 2026.
Applications for existing landfill infrastructure, landfill infrastructure with the potential to expand and new sites who can meet Loddon Mallee’s landfill needs will be considered, with applications open to operators based within and outside the region.
Sites already on the Victorian region’s landfill infrastructure schedule only need to apply if plans exist to expand these facilities within the next 10 years.
The Loddon Mallee Waste and Resource Recovery Group is encouraging landfill applications that maximise resource recovery and minimise environmental and health impacts, and that demonstrate the potential to develop good working relationships with their communities.
Interested parties need to apply through the Loddon Mallee Landfill Scheduling Application process.
Information gathered through this application process will inform the planning and delivery of the Loddon Mallee region’s Waste and Resource Recovery Implementation Plan (under the Victorian Statewide Waste and Resource Recovery Implementation Plan) to 2026. This will include a landfill schedule that will be used to plan and deliver the region’s landfill needs.
Full details of the application process are available via the Sustainability Victoria website. Alternatively, interested parties can email queries to Loddon-Mallee-Landfill-Scheduling@landell.com.au; include ‘Landfill Scheduling Application’ in the subject line and in the body copy their organisation’s name, a contact name and email address.
Completed application forms must be lodged by 2.00pm AEST on Friday 5 February.
