Draft Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan

Representation ID: 31142

Received: 28/09/2018

Respondent: Mrs Jackie Armstrong

Representation Summary:

CAGE strongly supports SP6 but would like to note:

Paragraphs 3.57, 3.58 Landscape: CAGE feels that the cumulative impact in the Trent and Idle valley landscape is worrying. NCC should publish figures on land surface in the county already lost to water (including when and where). The Trent Washlands are not the only landscape particularly under pressure from minerals development - the Village Farmlands of the East Nottinghamshire Sandlands are equally under threat, and from both Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire.
