It's an interesting observation. That implies the land fill site is taking in around 100,000m3 of waste a year. Do we have any independent way of checking that figure? ... not that it makes any real difference mind you: the way we're going is that land fill rates are surely going to reduce (through a combination of market pressures brought on by land fill tax, transport costs and the increase in re-cycling) so even without them making the hole bigger the chances of needing yet another extension after 2020 must be pretty likely. -- Paul
