Stop the Pyrolysis Fuel Plant in Appley Bridge, Lancashire

This small village has been plagued with companies that pump out pollutants and constantly use small country lanes to transport materials on heavy plant vehicles. This latest venture to burn plastic bags to make into diesel is detrimental to the health of anyone living within a few miles radius. Our local GP already knows that most of the population, including many of our children, suffer from asthma and allergies due to past and present pollutants and we also have the M6 motorway running close by with all the emissions that entails. Please, please help us to stop this further erosion of our area.

Stop the planning application that has been made to Lancashire County Council regarding a Pyrolysis fuel plant on Appley Lane North, Appley Bridge, Lancashire.

Just some of the concerns that have already been raised include:
•Potential of explosion
•Release of pollution, gases and chemicals into the environment
•Proximity to schools, homes and businesses
•Increased traffic of heavy vehicles along already overloaded roads
•Use of green belt land
•The construction and appearance of a flare tower and 17.5m chimney
•Hours of operation.
