Retention Permission and Permission for the following: 1. Retention permission for the continued use of three parcels of land within the existing sand and gravel pit for ancillary quarry activities, as follows: Parcel A: A 0.15-hectare area used for internal access and stockpiling of excavated material, originally permitted under Plan File Ref. No. 81/798, but not restored as required under the original planning conditions. Parcel B: A 0.49-hectare area used for stockpiling of excavated material, originally permitted under Plan File Ref. No. 81/798, but not restored as required under the original planning conditions. Parcel C: A 0.36-hectare area used for internal access to processing areas and includes a settlement lagoon that forms part of the site's water management system, originally permitted under Plan File Ref. No. 00/267, but not restored as required under the original planning conditions. 2. Planning permission for the continued use of these areas to support ongoing sand and gravel pit operations, including material storage, internal access, and water management.
