The Australian Sustainable Business Group (ASBG) has responded to the EPA's Draft The Liquid Food Waste Exemption 2011. ASBG is concerned this second draft Liquid Food Waste Resource Recovery Exemption still retains very conservative requirements such as buffer zones for application on farm land. While some improvements have been made over the initial draft, the current draft would still prevent much of Sydney basins' farmland being able to re-use this organic waste stream.
