EA Duty of Care Regs; had a letter this morning...

[TimberCutterDartmoor]

Any other registered waste carriers get one of these letters warning of spot checks etc? I'm worried because I bet the EA would love to pounce on woodchips on the way to the farm...

i read that you dont need a liscense for woodchip, because it is recyclable:confused1:

I can see another EA license debate going on here:001_tongue:

Like it or not a wcl is essential. The EA recently clarified that tree surgeons are require to have one. I strongly disagree with it, another mafia tax but there it is its now in black and white you need to get one or risk a fine.

My letter RX today states that as well as the WCL, duty of care must be provable by means of a waste transfer note completed at each and every waste receivers premises. It also states that I must keep a record of all waste I xfer around, be it a spent strawberry grow bag or a yew needle from a hedge complete with weight recorded etc etc!!! Enough to make you want to quit...

I would be better off getting rid of my waste license and just take a chance not getting caught!
