Representation Summary:

I and my husband wish to object to this application in the strongest possible terms. We feel that this extraction will impact considerably on the villages of Shoulham and Marham and have a detrimental effect on the value of house prices in both villages and considerably reduce the air quality and noise levels from the workings. We feel that it impossible to place a positive effect from air quality issues as the disturbed soil will lead to very much reduced air quality in dry weather conditions regardless of how the silica sand is extracted.
