Draft Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan

Representation ID: 31177

Received: 28/09/2018

Respondent: Mrs Jackie Armstrong

Representation Summary:

CAGE strongly supports DM8 on cumulative impact. 5.95 recognises that cumulative impact can also operate through the inability of regional infrastructure to accommodate one or several minerals sites when combined with existing, proposed and reasonably foreseeable non-mineral development. CAGE is glad that sense prevailed and that the previous proposal to concentrate 70% of gravel extraction close to Newark has been abandoned for a more sustainable geographic spread of sites close to their markets.
