An interesting article about the TATA waste incinerator by a local journalist, Alan Lowe, in the May edition of OURTOWN which is an excellent monthly magazine about Northwich. Alan has obviously done his homework on the subject and is particularly worried about the long term effects of pollution on growing children from the incinerator chimneys and from the hundreds of diesel engined HGV lorries that will be cluttering local roads every day as they service the TATA plant.
TATA does not have any concern about these risks to human health because they will have departed the scene and have made a nice profit from the sale of the incinerator to one of the power generating companies and CWAC Council has turned its face the other way.
On behalf of CHAIN, thanks to Alan for his eloquent support. ... See MoreSee Less

Just to let you know we have started our legal battle in Yorkshire! On Tuesday 23rd May 2017, AVAI applied for a judicial review against Bradford council's decision to approve the planning application for the Marley incinerator.
We have been given expert legal advice that we have a very strong case and if successful, this will overturn the planning application.
The judicial review process is very expensive and it is only with the generous help of the public that we have been able to do this - thank you all for your generous support so far!
AVAI are committed to keep fighting to stop the incinerator, however, we will need to raise an additional £25,000 within the next eight weeks to bolster our existing campaign funds and allow us to continue the fight.
A further statement on funding will be made over the coming days, but in the meantime you can donate here: www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/airevalleyagainstincineration ... See MoreSee Less
