Published WMPs are available from the Stationery Office. Numbers 4, 4A and 26A have statutory force and numbers 4 and 4A are under revision in line with the IPPC and Landfill Directives (as implemented in the UK).
A number of WMPs are still in force but are being gradually superseded by Environment Agency Technical Guidance. These include Numbers 16, 23, 26D, 26E, 26F, 27X, 31 which are available in draft form but were never formally completed.
