It's not just Rugby in Plume and other campaign groups, but also FOE who strongly criticise the Environment Agency: accusing them of :
* devaluing community influence
* weakening consultation
* making a cheap and easy worst-case route for disposal of hazardous wastes
* conflicting with the proximity principal
* failing to ensure access to information from the waste-burning trials
* allowing lower standards at cement kilns than incinerators (more emissions)
We have recently published a briefing for local campaign groups working on the burning of waste in kilns - please see the following link:
Burning waste in cement and lime kilns http://www.foe.co.uk/resource/briefings/waste_in_cement_kilns.pdf
We have also published a report looking at the siting of incinerators in area of deprivation:
