Section 54 Planning Application seeking to vary Condition 7(i) of Planning Permission Reference LA09/2017/1801/F. This variation is seeking to remove the requirement of the conducting of a Pre-Construction baseline habitat survey to National Vegetation Class (NVC) level. It is proposed to 'non-comply' with the habitat surveys to an NVC level. This is for a number of factors mainly that the site has a long planning history of being used for extraction and related activities stretching back to 1981, Planning Ref. I/1981/0185/F and I/1981/0189. There are additional planning applications related to these activities in 2002, 2003, 2009 and 2011. As a result of these planning applications the site is now, as was highlighted by the EcIA as submitted with the application whereby existing habitats have been mapped. The mapping shows predominantly a Sand and Gravel Quarry, with areas of bare ground and dense scrub. The Quarry ponds have already been translocated as per condition 8, 9 and 10. It would therefore indicate that the habitat survey to a NVC level would not be necessary at this site.

What these statistics cover
These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Mid Ulster District Council, across all dates currently available. They are a partial dataset, rather than an authority-wide performance measure. The date range does not establish continuous historical coverage.
The approval percentage is approved records divided by approved plus refused records. Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded. No percentage is shown until there is an approved or refused record.
