“Variation of Condition 5 of planning permission NYM/2014/0676/MEIA to allow minor material amendments relating to that part of the development at the Woodsmith Mine site (formerly known as Doves Nest Farm and Haxby Plantation), including; re-design of foreshafts and shaft construction methodology, changes to building layout and shaft access arrangements, revisions to construction and operational shaft platform levels, revisions to location and layout of surface water attenuation ponds, revisions to groundwater management arrangements and amendments to internal access arrangements” (Ref. NYM/2017/0505/MEIA). The amended scheme was approved subject to 98 planning conditions and a deed of variation to the originally approved Section 106 Agreement. It is this planning permission which has since been implemented at the minehead.
