Abstract

Minerals Resource Blocks identified within the Supplementary Planning Document (adopted November 2007), to assist the implementation of the Minerals Local Plan.
The Minerals Consultation Areas (MCAs) consist of mineral sterilisation MCAs and railhead MCAs.
The Mineral Sterilisation MCAs (also know as Minerals Resource Blocks) are areas that have been identified where particular care is needed to prevent the unnecessary sterilisation of sand and gravel resources and to safeguard rail aggregates depots.
The sand and gravel belt and mineral resource blocks outside of this are included for minerals.
Buffer zones at 250m around the mineral resource blocks exist to allow consideration of the impact of development close to but outside of the sites.
