Full council record
Purpose
To
seek Lead Member approval to fund the installation of fire
suppression systems at Maresfield and Pebsham waste transfer
stations. This is to reduce the likelihood of a fire causing damage
and disruption at both facilities, and reduce the consequent impact
that the loss of either facility would have on waste collection and
disposal services in East Sussex.
