The Waste Facilities Audit Association - WFAA - was formed in 1993 principally in response to tightening legal environmental requirements, increased cost of waste disposal and increased public and corporate expectation.
The WFAA is a non-profit making association of companies who in the course of their normal business activities generate waste.
Aims of the WFAA
To assist members in obtaining authoritative information on
UK, Irish & mainland Europe waste management facilities
through commissioning and sharing independent audits at cost
effective rates. In addition the WFAA also:
Provides detailed on-line information on UK waste site
licences from the Environment Agency.
Develop waste management e-learning training materials
for its members that can be delivered by the WFAA web site,
CD ROM or through the member's intranet or Learning Management
System.
The next WFAA Workshop will be held on the 19 May 2010 at the offices of Berwin Leighton Paisner in London. The Workshop will focus on healthcare waste issues, new waste management technologies, the UN globally harmonisation system of classification and labelling and waste legislation.
