Planning Advice Service (PAS)

Technical challenges can arise where development land coincides with the Development High Risk Areas. These areas are defined by the Mining Remediation Authority (the trading name of the Coal Authority). In these locations early identifications and consideration of mining legacy issues can be the difference between success or a stalled project. Our Planning Advice Service (PAS) helps unlock impacted sites by assisting the safe, responsible and sustainable construction that delivers resilience and positive change for coalfield communities and can help to ensure the development management process is not delayed by coal mining legacy.
