No development shall take place until an arboricultural method

statement has been submitted to and approved in writing by the

Local Planning Authority. Specifically the method statement shall:

1.  Provide a schedule of trees to be retained within 15m of the proposed building, the schedule to include the required root protection areas as set out in British Standard 5837:2012;

2.  Provide a specification for tree protective fencing and ground protection in accordance with the above standard;

3.  Confirm timing of erection of such tree protective fencing, which must in any case be erected prior to commencement of any site clearance or ground works.  A pre commencement site visit with the Council will be undertaken to ensure all tree protection is correctly positioned.  The agreed tree protection shall be retained and maintained for the full duration of works;

 

4.  Require a sign to be hung on such tree protective fencing, repeated as appropriate, which clearly states Construction Exclusion Zone – No access

5.  Demonstrate that where foundations encroach within any calculated RPA’s of any retained trees these foundations can be constructed without compromising the future health and longevity of the retained trees affected;

6.  Demonstrate that any new hard surfacing that encroaches within the calculated RPA of any retained trees can be constructed without compromising the future health and longevity of the retained trees affected;

7.  Demonstrate that any service runs/trenches where they encroach within the calculated RPA of any retained tree can be achieved without compromising the future health and longevity of the retained trees.

8.  Demonstrate that all site works, mixing areas, storage compounds, site buildings and associated contractor parking areas remain wholly outside any tree protection zones and at a suitable separation to prevent damage to retained trees.

9.  The removal of hard surfacing within the RPA and VTBZ of the T072 as shown in drawing number 8428-D-AIA rev A shall be carried out in accordance with paragraph 4.4.3 of Hayden’s Tree Survey, Arboriculture Impact Assessment Preliminary Arboricultural Method Statement and Tree Protection Plan dated 30.11.22.

Notes to applicant

 

 

1.

In reaching this decision Test Valley Borough Council (TVBC) has had regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and takes a positive and proactive approach to development proposals focused on solutions. TVBC work with applicants and their agents in a positive and proactive manner offering a pre-application advice service and updating applicants/agents of issues that may arise in dealing with the application and where possible suggesting solutions.

 

 

2.

The proposed development would lie within a Source Protection Zone. The applicant will need to consult with the Environment Agency to ensure the protection of the public water supply source is maintained and inform Southern Water of the outcome of this consultation.

 

 

3.

Waste on-site

The CL:AIRE Definition of Waste: Development Industry Code of Practice (version 2) provides operators with a framework for determining whether or not excavated material arising from site during remediation and/or land development works is waste or has ceased to be waste. Under the Code of Practice:

·  excavated materials that are recovered via a treatment operation can be reused on-site providing they are treated to a standard such that they are fit for purpose and unlikely to cause pollution

·  treated materials can be transferred between sites as part of a hub and cluster project

·  some naturally occurring clean material can be transferred directly between sites

Developers should ensure that all contaminated materials are adequately characterised both chemically and physically, and that the permitting status of any proposed on-site operations are clear. If in doubt, the Environment Agency should be contacted for advice at an early stage to avoid any delays.

·  We recommend that developers should refer to:

·  the position statement on the Definition of Waste: Development Industry Code of Practice

The waste management page on GOV.UK04Waste to be taken off-site.

Contaminated soil that is (or must be) disposed of is waste. Therefore, its handling, transport, treatment and disposal are subject to waste management legislation, which includes:

·  Duty of Care Regulations 1991

·  Hazardous Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2005

·  Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016

·  The Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2011

Developers should ensure that all contaminated materials are adequately characterised both chemically and physically in line with British Standard BS EN 14899:2005 'Characterization of Waste - Sampling of Waste Materials - Framework for the Preparation and Application of a Sampling Plan' and that the permitting status of any proposed treatment or disposal activity is clear. If in doubt, the Environment Agency should be contacted for advice at an early stage to avoid any delays.

If the total quantity of hazardous waste material produced or taken off-site is 500kg or greater in any 12 month period, the developer will need to register with us as a hazardous waste producer. Refer to the hazardous waste pages on GOV.UK for more information.

 

 

The Officer’s recommendation as per the update paper was proposed by Councillor Budzynski and seconded by Councillor Brooks.  Upon being put to the vote the motion was carried.
