Site Restoration Plan Conditioning and After-Use
Site restoration plans will be conditioned in planning permissions and should reflect site characteristics, local landscape, community needs, and nature conservation potential, including details of fill materials and final levels.
Site restoration plans will be conditioned as part of the grant of planning permission to ensure that sites are restored. The preferred types of reclamation and after-use will depend on a number of factors, including the characteristics of the deposit, nature of excavation, availability of fill materials, the surrounding landscape, the needs of the local community, and the potential for nature conservation on the site. Site restoration plans should include the details of any fill to be used and details of final levels.
