Otterpool Quarry - now listed in the Preferred Options Consultation on Waste Site Plans

From Our County Councillor, Susan Carey, in the Sellindge Newsletter there is a section Susan has written regarding Otterpool Quarry as follows:

"I had some news about Otterpool Quarry which came out too late for inclusion in my report but by the time this newsletter comes will be available on the KCC website www.kent.gov.uk .

Otterpool Quarry is now one of the sites listed in the Preferred Options Consultation on Waste Site Plans.  I want to stress that this does not change any of the obligations on Countrystyle to get a permit from the Environment Agency and fulfil the conditions of it planning permission before it can start any waste operations. It is, however, recognition that Countrystyle has obtained planning permission for the site. The consultation runs for 8 weeks till 23 July 2012."
