For
many years now Tarmac has encouraged the formation
of Liaison Committees at its sites in order to promote
exchanges of views
and ideas between the quarry and local residents.
The
liaison committee provides a forum where local representatives
can pass on local information,
concerns, questions, etc to
Tarmac employees. It is also an opportunity for local Tarmac
management to explain what has happened at the quarry during
the previous
six months and what is proposed for the next phase of working.
In
addition to the Liaison Committee, there is also
a Restoration and Aftercare Management Committee, which
is made up of
local representatives, officers from North Yorkshire
County
Council’s
planning and heritage departments and ecologists. This
committee oversees the ongoing restoration of the site.
