MIN19 Use of Category A Waste for Restoration of Sand and Gravel Pits

The minerals planning authority will seek to ensure that the present limited supplies of category A waste can best be used for restoration of sand and gravel pits where they offer the greatest prospects of achieving high quality restoration and a rapid return of the land to beneficial agricultural use. Where the timescale for the site to become stable is likely to exceed a five year aftercare period the minerals planning authority will seek an appropriate legal agreement with applicants specifying an alternative period and such other measures as may be appropriate to the method of restoration envisaged.
