MC18 Restoration and enhancement

The mineral planning authority will encourage and work with mineral operators and landowners to deliver benefits such as enhancement of biodiversity interests, improved public access and provision of climate change mitigation such as greater flood storage capacity. Where appropriate, a wider area enhancement approach should be developed, linking restoration proposals for mineral sites or linking site restoration to other green infrastructure initiatives.
