Following an agreement being reached between Essex County Council and UBB Waste (Essex) Limited (UBB) in relation to the design, construction and operation of the mechanical and biological waste treatment facility, otherwise known as Tovi Eco park in Basildon, Essex, UBB have agreed to close, clean, safety proof and demolish the facility before handing back the Environmental Permit to the Environment Agency.
Following the removal of the biohall structures in January 2023 and the removal of the internal processing equipment, current works are focusing on the breakdown of the concrete structures to the north of the site, including the air treatment building and exhaust stack, ahead of the commencement of removal of the structural steelwork to the pre-processing and waste reception areas. Further updates will be provided on this website as these works progress.
