Why no open competition: Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority/entity and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive
Published justification: The extreme urgency being brought on by imminent introduction of SEPA Guidance banning WUDS and POPs contaminated waste from landfill in an extremely and unforeseeable short timeframe resulting in the Council either having to cease accepting such waste (and be in breach of its statutory obligations under the Environmental Protection Act 1990) or being in breach of its statutory obligations in being a landfill operator.
