| # | Condition Details |
|---|---|
| 1 | 21. Following approval of the Revised Hydro-geological Risk Assessment but prior to the commencement of development at Wilton, Lockwood Beck and Tocketts Lythe a Construction and Operation Phase Ground and Surface Water Monitoring Scheme shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The scheme shall include:- • Groundwater quality and level triggers; • Surface water quality triggers; • Details of the number, type and location of monitoring points; • A protocol for the removal and replacement of any existing monitoring points; • Details of the frequency with which monitoring points will be monitored during construction and operation; • A list of the ground and surface water determinands to be tested for; • Monitoring of groundwater levels and spring flows; • Details of the method and frequency with which monitoring results will be shared with the Local Planning Authority and the Environment Agency. The approved scheme shall thereafter be implemented in full, with monitoring continuing in accordance with the approved scheme until such time that it is agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority that monitoring may cease. REASON: To protect water resources receptors. |
| 2 | 22. No development work that may impact on water resources receptors shall commence at Wilton, Lockwood Beck and Tocketts Lythe until a Remedial Action Plan, setting out the remedial actions to be taken in the event that any monitoring triggers are exceeded, shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This Remedial Action Plan should include: • A procedure for investigating and escalating a trigger value breach, and for informing the appropriate regulator (the Environment Agency) • A list of individuals (and their contact details) who are responsible for identifying and investigating a trigger value breach; • A list of individuals and organisations to be informed in the event of a breach or a confirmed departure from the established baseline; • Actions to protect the environment in the event of a suspected or confirmed environmental incident or departure from the established baseline (these may be specific to certain construction / operational activities or receptors, but should include the possibility of stopping relevant works while the breach is investigated). REASON: To provide a robust methodology for minimising potential harm to water resources receptors. |
| 3 | 23. Should any monitoring result exceed those triggers set out in the approved Construction and Operation Phase Ground and Surface Water Monitoring Scheme, the Local Planning Authority, the Environment Agency and Natural England shall be informed as soon as practicable, and the approved Remedial Action Plan shall thereafter be implemented as soon as practicable. REASON: To protect the water environment and reduce the risk of pollution to ground and surface waters. |
