#12 The RRO Rewrite?

There are few people who know more about the Resource Recovery Framework than this episode’s guest, Jason Scarborough. Jason had worked with the NSW EPA for almost 20 years where amongst other things, he was involved in the development and implementation of the initial Resource Recovery Framework. Four years ago he founded JS Regulatory Services.   That framework has undergone a number of independent reviews and many recommendations have been made. Implementation of those recommendations is still lagging way behind schedule. Gunnar and James chat with Jason about how the framework has come into existence, what changes have been made and what changes should be made. Jason shares fascinating insight into his time at the EPA and his even more fascinating suggestion on how to revolutionise the handling of waste in NSW. Links:Open for comment on asbestos management: https://www.chiefscientist.nsw.gov.au/independent-reports/asbestos-managementJason on LinkedIn https://au.linkedin.com/in/jason-scarborough-a28374112This episode was recorded on 12 July 2024Listen to Below the Surface and collect CPD points.
