Once testing of the residual material (i.e. material that has been welded onto the steel during the fire and which was not removed during the drum washing process) is complete, the shredded drums will either be transported to Red Hill Class IV landfill for disposal or undergo further washing. (3) I now table the URS report. See Table Paper. (4) The DEP has advised that no material has been taken to the Stephenson and Ward Incinerator in Welshpool from the Waste Control site. (5) N/A.
