Press Release Author: ORE UK

Industry: Environment

Press Release Summary: The waste management team have, for a limited period,
negotiated exclusive access at Teesport No. 3 Landfill for the disposal of specified
granular wastes with elevated hazardous WAC limits.

Press Release Body: Preston, Lancashire (ORE UK), 25 March 2008 -- Woodford
Environmental have recently been granted, for a limited period, exclusive rights for
direct landfilling of non-WAC compliant hazardous waste (parameter: TOC less than or
equal to 47%) at Teesport No.3 Landfill.

This is in addition to the company\'s existing rights for the disposal of WAC
compliant hazardous materials.

The former ICI site, three miles east of Middlesbrough with excellent rail, road and
sea links, is now owned by Impetus Remediation Ltd and is the only merchant landfill
in the country able to accept hazardous waste with elevated WAC limits.

Woodford Environmental is part of Woodford Global PLC, a fast-growing, dynamic
company with a diverse portfolio of brands from the sports, lifestyle and leisure
industries. Visit www.woodfordgroup.com for more information.

Dr. Henry Clemmey, Group Managing Director of Woodford Global, said: \"One of the key
attributes of the Teesport site is their ability to accept non-WAC compliant
hazardous waste for direct landfilling. This clearly provides a limited window of
opportunity for the speedy and economic remediation of problematic sites that may
not otherwise be viable.

\"The area also benefits from excellent transport links via rail, road and sea which
makes the site an attractive and competitive waste management proposition,\" he
continued.
