It is requested that an additional circumstance is bulleted when planning permission can occur on a non-allocated site. Due to a shortage of available fresh water for use in the processing of mineral and a shortage of space for the disposal of processed silts, there is an imminent requirement to extract minerals on an extension to the Plant Site at Bittering Quarry. The extraction would enable the formation of new fresh water and silt lagoons to be restored to a mixture of open water, scrub and wet woodland (see Location Plan).
The change sought would add an additional circumstance to MP1.27 in order to address this specific issue stating for example 'the formation of fresh water lagoons and/or silt lagoons at an existing quarry'.
