MIN14 Proposals for Mineral Extraction in Locations of Archaeological Importance

Where mineral extraction is proposed in a location where the minerals planning authority is advised that there is a strong probability of significant archaeological discoveries requiring time for examination and recording, the minerals planning authority will not grant planning permission until satisfied that the working programme has been designed to reasonably accommodate this in accordance with PPG16 and that adequate safeguards are available to ensure that the confederation of british industry’s current code of conduct is fully satisfied.
