Decision outlook
Plota predicted a decision around 15 Sept 2026; it is now day 158.
Day 158, past the statutory target. 98% of eia screening and scoping opinions in North Yorkshire are decided within thirteen weeks; extensions of time are common, and the council need not decide on the day. Last seen undecided on 24 Aug 2026.
Plota live figures for eia screening and scoping opinions decided across the UK in the last twelve months, from validation; too few recent eia screening and scoping opinions in North Yorkshire to go on. North Yorkshire decision record →
