Proposal

Consultation by KCC: The winning and working of minerals (silica and building sand) in the form of a lateral northerly extension to the existing quarry with restoration to original ground levels to be achieved via infilling the quarry void with imported inert construction and demolition waste (C&DW); the permanent storage of indigenous overburden materials within the main quarry void for the purposes of buttressing the reservoir to the West of the main quarry void; the temporary diversion of Footpaths MR183 and MR165; the erection of an earthen screening bund; the revised phasing of extraction, infilling, buttressing and restoration works permitted at the Site to be secured via the relinquishment of all extant planning permissions and previous Section 106 legal agreements at the Site; and the progressive restoration of the Site to agriculture and biodiversity afteruses (KCC REF: KCC/TM/0006/2026)
