Representation Summary:

I live in West Norfolk, where there is an ongoing consideration as to whether the Leziate mineral extraction site should have its rights to mineral extraction extended into the East Winch area, with subsequent waste management plans. At this stage, I have been informed that ‘The appeals against non-determination of the planning applications, lodged by the Applicant, are ongoing. (’31 10 22.). While the Applicant may be concerned about delays, their proposed questionable development is extremely close, within a quarter mile, to people's homes in East Winch village. Given the area's flood risk, it is remarkable that anyone or any agency would consider continuing mineral extraction activities appropriate in West Norfolk, let alone extensions of those activities.
