How a Coal Mining Risk Assessment Can Prevent Costly Delays

Planning officers and building control departments often place conditions on developments in coalfield areas. Without a Coal Mining Risk Assessment, your application may be delayed or rejected outright.

Case Study Example

We recently assisted a client developing 3 new dwellings on a plot in a designated High-Risk Area. Their initial application stalled due to lack of a CMRA. We carried out the necessary investigation, confirmed the absence of shallow workings, and enabled the council to approve the scheme without further delay.

Plan Early, Save Later

Commissioning a Coal Mining Risk Assessment early in the design phase helps you:

• Avoid last-minute rejections or hold-ups
• Address risks before they become costly problems
• Gain approval with confidence
