I am writing to object to the proposed silica sand excavations in the Shouldham and Marham area.
There will be an unacceptable increase in noise, dust and light pollution and definite health risks as a result of prolonged exposure to silica dust. There will also be flood risks involved. I am also very concerned about the destruction of habitat of endangered wildlife species and detrimental impacts on the River Nar and on the open nature of the landscape. Its proximity to the various scheduled monuments and to the conservation area of Shouldham in which I live is also a matter of real concern.
The proposed site is huge and totally inappropriate. I hope that you will reject any proposals for its development.
