Q1: Do you think any further information should be included in the overview of the area?
Villages and hamlets which are along major road routes
Q2: Do you agree with the draft vision? Are there other things we should include? Agree with draft vision.
Please confirm the geological constraints in Nottinghamshire that will impact the "vision"
Q3: Are the strategic issues appropriate? Are there others we should consider? No, it does not address hydrocarbons
Q4: Do you think the average 10 year sales figure the most suitable methodology for forecasting future aggregate demand in Nottinghamshire. If not please identify any alternatives you feel are realistic and deliverable and the evidence to support this approach.
Prolonged period of austerity not best for forecasting, would average of last 20 years be more appropriate.
Q5: Do you think the same methodology (most recent average 10 years sales) should be used for each aggregate or is there merit in using different methodologies for different aggregates?
Only use 20 years for sand and gravel.
Q6: Do you think extensions to existing permitted quarries should be prioritised over new greenfield quarries?
Yes, infrastructure in place.
Q7: Should different approaches (new sites/extensions to existing permitted quarries) be adopted for individual mineral types?
Yes, depending on impact on local communities and life of existing permitted quarries.
Q8: How important is it to maintain a geographical spread of sand and gravel quarries across the County (ie Idle Valley, near Newark and near Nottingham) to minimise the distance minerals are transported to markets?
Important for environmental impact, reducing road miles. Special provisions (landscaping, routing etc.) should be made at planning stage with enforcement methods to reduce impact on local communities. All landscaping to be carried out as soon as possible after permission given to reduce impact.
Q9: Would it be more appropriate to prioritise specific areas above others?
Yes. Were provisions already existing, landscaping and routing established to reduce impact on local communities. Good relationships often already exist between local communities and quarry companies to reduce problems.
Q10: Is it economical to transport mineral by river barge and if so should proposed quarries with the potential for moving sand and gravel by river barge be prioritised over other proposals? Barge transport has been used on the River Trent in the recent past and should be prioritised.
Q11: Are you aware of any other issues relating to Sherwood Sandstone provision that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? No.
Q12: Is there evidence to suggest that additional crushed rock reserves are required to meet demand in Nottinghamshire over the Plan period? If so please provide this evidence. Unable to reply due to insufficient information.
Q13: Are you aware of any other issues relating to crushed rock provision that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Unable to reply due to insufficient information.
Q14: Are you aware of any issues relating to alternative aggregates that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? No.
Q15: Should the Plan identify a specific replacement quarry (remote extension/ new site) to Dorket Head clay pit or should a criteria based policy be developed to ensure that an adequate supply of clay can be maintained over the Plan period? Unable to reply due to insufficient information
Q16: Is a criteria based policy the most suitable approach to cover the potential for new brick works and associated clay pits? Unable to reply due to insufficient information
Q17: Should the plan seek to identify specific site allocations for Gypsum provision or should a criteria based policy be developed to ensure an adequate supply of Gypsum can be maintained over the Plan period? Unable to reply due to insufficient information
Q18: Are you aware of any issues regarding the provision of Gypsum that should be considered as part of the Minerals Local Plan review? Unable to reply due to insufficient information

Q22: Are you aware of any other issues relating to building stone provision that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Unable to reply due to insufficient information
Q23: Are you aware of any issues relating to coal extraction that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Yes; Carbon Capture. We suggest that consideration is given to "softening" planning for coal extraction for power plants that use carbon capture storage.
Q24: Are you aware of any issues relating to hydrocarbon extraction that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Yes; Carbon Capture. We suggest that consideration is given to "softening" planning for coal extraction for power plants that use carbon capture storage.
Q25: Do you agree with the proposed development management policy areas? Are there any others that should be covered? Routes for vehicles from quarries to avoid villages and hamlets along major roads.
Q26: Are you aware of any issues relating to minerals safeguarding that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Railheads should be built where quarries are adjacent to current currently used railways lines.

Q22: Are you aware of any other issues relating to building stone provision that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Unable to reply due to insufficient information
Q23: Are you aware of any issues relating to coal extraction that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Yes; Carbon Capture. We suggest that consideration is given to "softening" planning for coal extraction for power plants that use carbon capture storage.
Q24: Are you aware of any issues relating to hydrocarbon extraction that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Yes; Carbon Capture. We suggest that consideration is given to "softening" planning for coal extraction for power plants that use carbon capture storage.
Q25: Do you agree with the proposed development management policy areas? Are there any others that should be covered? Routes for vehicles from quarries to avoid villages and hamlets along major roads.
Q26: Are you aware of any issues relating to minerals safeguarding that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? Railheads should be built where quarries are adjacent to current currently used railways lines.
Minerals Local Plan Issues and Options consultation
Q9 Would it be more appropriate to prioritise specific areas above others?
Respondent: Collingham Parish Council
Representation Summary:
Yes. Were provisions already existing, landscaping and routing established to reduce impact on local communities. Good relationships often already exist between local communities and quarry companies to reduce problems.
Full text:
Q1: Do you think any further information should be included in the overview of the area?
Villages and hamlets which are along major road routes
Q2: Do you agree with the draft vision? Are there other things we should include? Agree with draft vision.
Please confirm the geological constraints in Nottinghamshire that will impact the "vision"
Q3: Are the strategic issues appropriate? Are there others we should consider? No, it does not address hydrocarbons
Q4: Do you think the average 10 year sales figure the most suitable methodology for forecasting future aggregate demand in Nottinghamshire. If not please identify any alternatives you feel are realistic and deliverable and the evidence to support this approach.
Prolonged period of austerity not best for forecasting, would average of last 20 years be more appropriate.
Q5: Do you think the same methodology (most recent average 10 years sales) should be used for each aggregate or is there merit in using different methodologies for different aggregates?
Only use 20 years for sand and gravel.
Q6: Do you think extensions to existing permitted quarries should be prioritised over new greenfield quarries?
Yes, infrastructure in place.
Q7: Should different approaches (new sites/extensions to existing permitted quarries) be adopted for individual mineral types?
Yes, depending on impact on local communities and life of existing permitted quarries.
Q8: How important is it to maintain a geographical spread of sand and gravel quarries across the County (ie Idle Valley, near Newark and near Nottingham) to minimise the distance minerals are transported to markets?
Important for environmental impact, reducing road miles. Special provisions (landscaping, routing etc.) should be made at planning stage with enforcement methods to reduce impact on local communities. All landscaping to be carried out as soon as possible after permission given to reduce impact.
Q9: Would it be more appropriate to prioritise specific areas above others?
Yes. Were provisions already existing, landscaping and routing established to reduce impact on local communities. Good relationships often already exist between local communities and quarry companies to reduce problems.
Q10: Is it economical to transport mineral by river barge and if so should proposed quarries with the potential for moving sand and gravel by river barge be prioritised over other proposals? Barge transport has been used on the River Trent in the recent past and should be prioritised.
Q11: Are you aware of any other issues relating to Sherwood Sandstone provision that should be considered through the Minerals Local Plan review? No.
