Landscape and Ecological Mitigation Plan
Work in progress’ Landscape and Ecological Mitigation Strategy plans have been prepared which show measures taken to avoid or reduce potential impacts that may result from the proposal. The mitigation is presented in two stages. The first is what could be delivered alongside the quarry when in operation (at around 20 years). The second is what could be delivered as part of the final restoration of the quarry when operations cease. The mitigation measures presented include where existing hedges could be translocated, where new hedgerows and woodland could be planted and where ditches and ponds are required to catch surface water run-off.
