Thse are the proceedings of a conference held at the University of Warwick in April 1991. The objective was to bring together representatives of landfill operators, regulatory authorities and companies offering technical support to landfill in order to identify and discuss the impact of new environmental legislation. The main title summarises this, linking the concepts of waste discharge with the obligation of care in how this is done. The economic considerations a tive compliance with landfill legislation.
