CAGE strongly supports SP6 but would like to note:
We were shocked to learn that one ancient parish in Mid-Lincs has already lost 50% of its land surface to quarrying and has had a further 15% allocated for extraction by Lincolnshire CC. Developers and wildlife partners should be required to state what percentage area is likely to be recovered as land surface and the percentage of non-water habitat to help the public evaluate the benefits.
