Procurement of a Contract for the Operation and Maintenance of Gayton Closed Landfill

Description

The Authority is a unitary authority formed in 2021 from the former areas of Daventry District Council, Northampton Borough Council and South Northamptonshire Council and part of Northamptonshire County Council. A West Northamptonshire Council Cabinet report gave permission to commence a procurement process that was approved at 7th May 2024 Cabinet Meeting. Gayton closed landfill is currently classified as contaminated land under Part 2a of the Environmental Protection Act. To mitigate emissions from this site there is an on-site leachate treatment plant at Gayton closed landfill which intercepts and treats leachate from the site and prevents uncontrolled discharge, thereby mitigating and reducing the risks that the site may otherwise present. This leachate treatment plant is managed by a service provider contractor in accordance with the Environment Agency's required standards of the formal discharge consent.
