Preferred Options consultation document

Representation ID: 93254

Received: 18/10/2019

Respondent: Earsham Gravels Limited

Agent: Stephen M Daw Limited

Representation Summary:

This Site is the first of three proposed extensions to Earsham Quarry, each of which will make a valuable contribution of high-grade aggregate to the total mineral resource required over the Plan Period, i.e. until 2036.

A Planning Application is due to be submitted shortly which will aim to comply with all Mineral and Waste Local Plan Policies and address each of the specific requirements of Specific Site Allocation Policy MIN 209 / MIN 210 / MIN 211 (Earsham sites).

Part of this Site (Area 1) has been chosen to accommodate the Relocated Plant Site when it is moved out of the Broads Authority Executive Area. This move will be completed no later than 5 years from extraction commencing within Area 1. Details of the Relocated Plant Site are being submitted under separate cover.

It is envisaged extraction will commence within Area 1 during 2020 and be completed during 2025.

Details of the working and restoration arrangements for Area 1 are being submitted under separate cover.

On behalf of Earsham Gravels Limited I would ask for this Site to be Allocated for the extraction of Sand and Gravel.
