The UK needs new sources of aggregates if we are to sustain our
current lifestyles and provide for the needs of future generations.
Marine sand and gravel is an important part of a mix that
also includes land-based aggregates plus ever increasing use of recycled
and secondary materials.
With its existing dredging licences now depleted,
the marine aggregate industry has identified significant new sources in
the deeper waters of the eastern English Channel. The aim of this website
is to keep all interested stakeholders up to date with progress in the
permission and development stages and to provide access to environmental
data.
