Plans to expand the Ravensworth Composting Facility are now on public exhibition, with community feedback open until 20 May.
The existing resource recovery facility currently has approval to process up to 200,000 tonnes of organic material per year, along with associated water drainage, leachate management and supporting infrastructure.
The proposed Modification 3 application seeks approval to increase processing capacity to 250,000 tonnes annually, allow the receival and processing of municipal and commercial food organics and garden organics material, and install a weighbridge at the site.
The proposal is being assessed as a state significant development modification, meaning submissions can be made by any individual or organisation.
The application can be viewed online at the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure website by going to the planning portal and clicking the On Exhibition tab on the Major Projects page: www.planningportal.nsw.gov.au/major-projects
