Minerals and quarries

Quarries come with restoration obligations that outlast the mineral. We consent the restoration, the imported materials that make it possible and the land use that follows.

What decides these sites

Remaining reserves and planning permission
The restoration scheme and its funding
Recovery or disposal permits for imported materials
Haulage routes and traffic
Water and stability

How we approach them

We structure restoration so that imported materials and the eventual land use carry the cost of meeting the site's obligations.
