520 _aCovers the landmark case "British Aggregates Association v Commission of the European Communities", on which a verdict is soon to be delivered, on the legality of a tax on the extraction and use of certain aggregates in the UK, a tax bitterly contested since its introduction in April 2002. Reports on a conflict between the Peak District National Park Authority and the stone quarrying industry, the role of hauliers serving the aggregates sectors and how the Safe and Fuel Efficient Driving scheme can help to reduce road transport costs. Looks at marine aggregate extraction following the decision to allow sand and gravel dredging in the eastern English Channel, the restoration of worked-out quarries and the imminent publication of harmonised standards for asphalt production.
