Preferred Options consultation document

Representation ID: 98350

Received: 15/10/2019

Respondent: Mrs LDT Gallagher

Representation Summary:

I object to SIL02, the overlap AOSE, AOSE as a whole and AOS J.


If silica sand is a finite resource, what are you doing to protect its use for future generations? What will you do when it runs out? Will you dig glass out from landfill to recycle? Of course without some silica sand they, future generations will be unable to recycle glass efficiently. Why not recycle now and save Norfolk taxpayers, their home; the rural beauty of the area; their time, effort and cost of producing the minerals part of your plan and focus instead on the waste. Cherry-picking parts of NPPF to suit your aim to extract minerals is disregarding other parts of NPPF, especially Sect 17, para 204.b.
