First look at what might be reported to local authorities, for example:
– public reports of unlicensed peat extraction
– reports forwarded by BnM (public incorrectly report unlicensed peat extraction to BnM)
– reports forwarded by EPA (EPA only deal with EPA license extraction, which as of 2019 is all unlicensed, so they may report non BnM extraction)
– reports forwarded by NPWS and/or other government departments/agencies (eg fly over reporting by NPWS from SAC bogs)
– reports submitted by LAWPRO, ASSAP or other local authorities
In particular to include the following documentation
– details/copies of any warning letters issued by the council under s152 PDA 2000 in respect of peat extraction;
– any enforcement notices issued under s154 PDA 2000 in respect of same;
– details of any proceedings for an injunction issued by the council under s160 in respect of same
Note: NPWS have a list of SAC bogs with unlicensed extraction from flyovers, but there’s no comprehensive listing of non-SAC unlicensed extraction
