Waste Management: Brofiscin Quarry

Question: asked Her Majesty's Government:Whether the Environment Agency Wales has selected and published a remediation option for Brofiscin Quarry; and, if so, whether they will place a copy in the Library of the House.

Answer: I am informed by the Environment Agency Wales that the Environment Agency has identified a remediation solution it would recommend for Brofiscin Quarry. This involves the treatment of polluted surface water and continued monitoring of surface and groundwater. An executive summary of the remediation options appraisal will soon be available on the Environment Agency's website. A CD of the full appraisal is available on request. I will place a hardcopy of the summary and the CD in the Library of the House.
