What’s proposed

A 10 year planning permission to amend the recently permitted development for the construction of a contractor’s compound, welfare facilities, an internal access road and associated works, Ref: 20/5533. The amendments include adjusting internal access roads and associated works. The proposed amendments include relocating a section of road accessing the permitted contractors compound, construction of associated earth reinforced retaining walls, the working and grading of site-won material, the removal of 88 trees, replacement planting of 90 trees, the erection of protective fencing around trees that are to remain, and some other minor demolitions and alterations. The proposal includes the removal of 3 No. double-stacked temporary portable contractor cabins (total floor area removed = 192m2, overall height of 4.95m) and removal of a section of steel gantry walkways from the previously permitted contractors compound. The development will include all adjustments required to associated on-site infrastructure. The proposed development is covered by an existing Industrial Emissions Directive Licence No. P0013-04. As the development refers to a modification to an establishment to which the Major Accident Directive applies information as specified in the third schedule of the Major Accident Regulations will be submitted with the application
