Quarry given green light

​The SBC Planning Committee have approved plans for evening working at a local Tweeddale quarry at Cowislinn following an alteration to the original plans submitted. The operators had originally planned to work throughout the night but agreed with planning officers to reduce the working hours to no later than 1 am. The total number of permitted days was also reduced from the original application. Conditions concerning screening and the prevention of light pollution were also agreed.
