This page will be updated with the latest Reserve News as it happens
August 2006
31st Aug - The main area of seeded grassland is cut.
May 2006
16th May - Viridor formally take over Wyvern Waste 6 weeks later
than planned.
March 2006
24th Mar - Maintenance work being carried out on the very young
trees that border the NorthWest corner
There has been some activity on site in March. I speculate that this is surveying related to the planned takeover of Wyvern Waste by Viridor.
December 2005
The Somerset Wildlife Trust are meeting with Wyvern Waste just
before Christmas to discuss plans.
November 2005
30th Nov - The drains are being cleared and it becomes obvious that access for
heavy vehicles will be required right through the middle of the site.
16th Nov - The resculpting has progressed into a fair sized hole with sloped sides in the south eastern corner. This could become an interesting marshy area, although it is rather overshadowed by trees.
12th Nov - There is some resculpting work in progress in the south eastern corner on the dry stream bed. I understand this to be related to flood prevention.
October 2005
The main area has turned green as it has been seeded with a grass and wild-flower
mix.
