Draft Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan

Representation ID: 31155

Received: 28/09/2018

Respondent: Mrs Jackie Armstrong

Representation Summary:

CAGE is glad that the show-restorations in the Collingham area are to be managed as a wetland bird habitat of national status, worthy of EU recognition. The allocated extensions to this mineral site will enlarge the scale and value of the existing site, reinforcing this ambition. Other new sites, if opened, might not have such a satisfactory restoration or such a secure future after their exploitation.
