Development Description
The proposed development will consist of the following: 1) Continued use of the existing operational quarry (3.4ha) (granted under Plan File Ref. No. 20140). 2) Recommencement of extraction of a partially extracted area previously authorised under SU0057 (3.9 ha) to a final floor level of 148 mOD. 3) Recommencement of use for stockpiling of the remainder of the historic quarry floor (2.9 ha) previously authorised under plan ref. SU0057. 4) Lateral extension of the existing quarry including extraction of rock and all associated facilities/works over an area of c. 2 ha to a final floor level of 148 mOD. 5) The continuation of use of an existing pre-cast concrete manufacturing building, concrete batching plant, machine storage building and existing yard area (Granted under Plan File Ref. No. 21251). 6) Continuation of use of the existing settlement lagoons granted under Plan File Ref. No. 20140. 7) Construction of two new buildings: - Building 1 (1,595 m2): A shed to enclose the existing pre-stressed beds/moulds, complete with a store. - Building 2 (85 m2): Incorporating a store for two items of equipment associated with block making, compressor house, and substation with switch room for 3-phase supply, to be located adjacent to the existing ready-mix plant. 8) Importation of sand for use in concrete manufacturing. 9) Import approx. 70,000m3 (c. 125,000 tonnes) of Article 27 clean, uncontaminated soil and stone byproduct (a non-EIA scheduled activity that does not require waste authorisation), to construct a screening berm to the south of the extraction area and to restore part of the application area following the completion of extraction. 10) All related ancillary development and associated site facilities/works including processing (crushing, screening and washing) and stockpiling of materials; workshop, site office, block yard, and all other related activities. The proposed development is within an overall application area of c.20 hectares and is for a total period of 25 years, with an additional 2 years for final site restoration
