Draft Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan

Representation ID: 31034

An absolute commitment to proper biological surveys with summary dismissal of any plans that disrupt areas found to be of biological importance must be shown if the council wishes to demonstrate that they are adequately exercising their moral duty to protect the environment and preserve biodiversity.
