Planning application

Lower Drayton Farm Lower Drayton Lane Penkridge ST19 5RE

Granted South Staffordshire 21/00873/AGR Agricultural Consent

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

Proposal

A balanced cut and fill agricultural irrigation reservoir. Why necessary for agriculture: It is necessary because the current practice of abstracting water from the river Penk for irrigation in times of low rainfall is considered unsustainable, unreliable and will become more so with the effects of climate change. The irrigation water is primarily used for potato growing. Why designed for agriculture: Please refer to the plans and written submission.

As published by the council, reference 21/00873/AGR
