Granted Exmoor National Park SCC/3619/2019/Cond3(N/A) Advertising

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

There shall be no operation of the development hereby permitted until a detailed Construction Environment Management Plan (CEMP) has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Waste Planning Authority. The CEMP shall include the following: o Risk assessment of potentially damaging construction activities. o Measures relating to the control of dust during construction and operation. o Identification of “biodiversity protection zones”. o Practical measures (both physical measures and sensitive working practices) to avoid or reduce impacts during construction (may be provided as a set of method statements). o The location and timing of sensitive works to avoid harm to biodiversity features. o The times during construction when specialist ecologists need to be present on site to oversee works, as appropriate. o Responsible persons and lines of communication. o The role and responsibilities on site of an ecological clerk of works (ECoW) or similarly competent person, as appropriate o Use of protective fences, exclusion barriers and warning signs. o The management plan will also specify the measures which will be put into place to ensure that all remaining solids resulting from operation of the pyrolytic process would be managed and disposed of at appropriate licensed facilities and would be handled in such a way to ensure that there was no risk of contamination of local receptors (in particular the River Axe). Thereafter the development shall be carried out in strict accordance with the approved details and any subsequent amendments shall be agreed in writing with the Waste Planning Authority.
