This paper: describes the restoration and aftercare planning and design stages at the start of the landfill scheme; gives guidance on the integration of the restoration design with operational and pollution control priorities; reviews relevant legislation and policy; discusses technical considerations and professional skills; considers post-closure management of engineering systems; considers ways of minimising the impact of these works on aftercare and after-use. Moreover this consultation draft cover the restoration and aftercare of: new and existing land sites i.e. a quarry or other similar void filled to surrounding ground level; new and existing land-raising sites i.e. an area filled to form a new raised landform which may be considerably higher than the surrounding land; sites which have accepted all types of wastes including special, household, commercial, industrial, demolition/construction and inert wastes.
