The Trent Valley, between Newark and South Clifton, will be the “crown jewel” of this wetland landscape.
Positive planning for nature after minerals
From dragonflies to marsh harriers, otters to orchids, many mineral sites are outstanding places for wildlife. But by working together, mineral planners, mineral operators and conservation organisations can do even more to bring mineral sites to life for people and wildlife.
Stakeholder engagement
Engagement with local communities, conservation groups and other stakeholders is a key part of the planning process for new mineral extractions.
Case studies
Our Case Studies pages showcase the great work which is already being undertaken across the minerals and planning sectors to help enhance and protect the natural world and leave a lasting legacy for the benefit and enjoyment of future generations.
