Lineage
Prior to 6th April 2011, aggregate extraction licenses were issued by the MMO under the Coast Protection Act (CPA). In 2012 the MMO commissioned a project to extract and plot the spatial information relating to aggregate extraction licenses issued up to October 2012. Information was extracted from MMO licensing records and converted to GIS format. You can access the report for the MMO1025 Legacy Licensing Data project by contacting the MMO Access to Information team and ing the ISBN reference 978-1-909452-06-0
