A2. Aggregates Monitoring (AM) Surveys
Aggregates
Monitoring Surveys are undertaken by the RAWPs to provide details
of the regional and national production and consumption of aggregates.
Main surveys are undertaken on a four yearly cycle for England
and Wales and also provide information on the regional distribution
of aggregates production.
The last completed survey was carried out in 2014 by CLG. The
information is collected from minerals producers by the mineral
planning authorities in a survey collated regionally by the Regional
Aggregates Working Parties. Since the early 1990s, the RAWPs have
also undertaken annual surveys of aggregates production and reports
summarising aggregates production and reserves in each mineral
planning authority are published each year.
