Draft Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan

Representation ID: 31181

Received: 28/09/2018

Respondent: Mrs Jackie Armstrong

Representation Summary:

The Trent Washlands are not the only landscape particularly under pressure from minerals development - the Village Farmlands, East Nottinghamshire Sandlands are equally under threat, from both Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire Local Minerals Plans.

NCC should publish figures (by Parish) on land surface in the county already lost to water. Developers must state what percentage area is likely to be recovered as land surface and non-water habitat.
