Question 10: What do you think of the draft policy approach regarding future aggregate provision?
Representation ID: 31020
Received: 27/09/2018
Respondent: Aggergate Industries
Implementing a 10y average conforms with National Planning Policy.
Although permitted reserves will be maintained throughout the plan period average production through the plan period will not. There is a deficit varying from 30,000-220,000 tonnes per annum.
To ensure a steady supply of mineral additional production capacity is required either at new facilities or existing sites. The consequence of increase production of existing reserves will be the depletion of existing reserves.

Question 14: What do you think to the draft policy regarding secondary and recycled aggregates?
Representation ID: 31022
Received: 27/09/2018
Respondent: Aggergate Industries
The policy could further support recycling of secondary aggregate at Mineral Sites as this not only preserves primary aggregate but could also assist final restoration

Question 24: What do you think of the draft policy wording for DM3: Agricultural land and soil quality
Representation ID: 31024
Received: 27/09/2018
Respondent: Aggergate Industries
Soils are an important resource that should be protected and mitigated through any development and their importance should be supported in any restoration scheme which often conflicts with biodiversity led restoration.

Representation ID: 31026

the term ' Demonstrably of equivalent significant' is very ambiguous further clarification is necessary to understand what weight should be applied as a material consideration

Representation ID: 31028

Respondent: Aggergate Industries
The provision of Section 106 are often inappropriately used which delays the planning system.
Planning Conditions are sufficient to control development within the application boundary including;
Archaeological
Aftercare (which can be extended beyond the statutory 5y)
Flood risk

Generally support the aims of the policy also do not support a biodiversity led restoration scheme as this is considered a narrow approach to mineral reclamation.
The policy does not complement the protection of soils resources as a final restoration land form.

If this policy is to capture mineral extraction prior to commercial / housing developments the wording needs to be expanded to reflect these minerals
