we wanted to burn some realy old gnarly thorn fot EA but they said it was against their own policy and wasnt best practice and that they should set an example to others by not burning

[firewoodman]

I wonder how many farmers/tree lads/landscapers etc have been told off by the EA in the past for burning?

 

If it is better for the environment which going by the info in here it is ,then I cant see a thing wrong with it at all, well as long as its not blowing smoke my way

 

local farmer was told off 2 weeks ago by EA and told to put it out with clean water and not to use the water out of the dissused slurry pit

 

very much a case of ....do as i say, not do as i do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
