In truth, I have worked in many sites where little thought has been given to waste- at London Docklands in the 80s, the access junction to Canary wharf was built over hundreds of tonnes of old waste- even an artificial ski Slope was formed out of a huge mound of gas works waste.
Currently there is great thrust to develop 'Brownfield sites' in cities which must raise this issue again. t seems as if there is no specific planning guidance in this matter, and it is not in any developer's interest to raise it!
