ESSENTIAL INFRASTUCTURE FOR AUSTRALIA'S FUTURE

Landfills and transfer stations play an essential role in an integrated waste and resource recovery (WARR) industry, providing facilities for materials aggregation and separation, recovery, and final disposal, as well as being critical in times of disaster - both natural and pandemic.  Australia’s facilities are highly engineered and designed to ensure best practice.  

Sensible infrastructure planning, and continued improvement and innovation in design, operation, regulation, and safety, are all paramount for these facilities to continue to deliver the essential services and support they offer. 

Under the theme 'Essential infrastructure for Australia’s future' the Waste Management and Resource Recovery Association of Australia’s (WMRR's) 2023 Australian Landfill & Transfer Stations Conference (#2023ALTS) will provide a forum to share knowledge and discuss opportunities, pathways, and models to drive the industry forward.
