Received: 28/09/2018

Respondent: Mrs Jackie Armstrong

Representation Summary:

In the Vision statement, CAGE supports including appropriate tools for reducing the impact of minerals extraction on environmental assets but would like an equivalent statement on the protection of the quality of life and health of people. (If not here, this text should be placed in DM1 Protecting Local Amenity.):

'The quality of life and health of those living, working in, or visiting Nottinghamshire will be protected by all appropriate means, including site establishment, sensitive siting of plant, plant operating conditions and hours, HGV routing, early and staged restoration and appropriate afteruse'.
