Monmouthshire County Council, Newport City Council, Caerphilly County Borough Council, Cardiff Council and the Vale of Glamorgan Council have formed a partnership to deliver a new sub regional waste strategy. The first project of the new partnership, called Prosiect Gwyrdd, is to identify and deliver a sustainable solution to the waste disposal issues which are a major challenge to the region.

The first phase project will last for a minimum of three years with the possibility of further phases extending this period. The post will be located in Cardiff Council.
