Appeal Date Changes to November 19th 2002

Latest information is that Scottish Power's appeal against Cheshire County Council's refusal of the Gas Plant planning applications, will be held from November 19th, possibly at Winsford, and may run to up to 12 days of hearings - so pencil this in your diary, but don't write it in ink, as things may yet change.

If you sent a letter to Cheshire County Council, opposing the Gas Plant, then don't worry - all these protest letters will be forwarded to the appeal inspectorate - and that's something like 10, 000 to 13, 000 letters in total, adding up those sent opposing Gas Plant I and those opposing Gas Plant II.

If you have anything extra and new to say about the Gas Plants, that's to say something you didn't mention before, then you have UNTIL AUGUST 1st to write to the inspectorate - but it would have to be something tangible that would influence the case. Here's the inspectorate's address:-

The Planning Inspectorate,
3/02 Kite Wing,
Temple Quay House,
2 The Square,
Temple Quay,
Bristol,
