For pre- application discussions, we recommend the applicant contact our area Partnerships & Strategic Overview (PSO) Team at: pso.midswest@environment-agency.gov.uk To apply for a FRAP please email our National team at: flood.permitting@environment-agency.gov.uk For further advice please see: Flood risk activities: environmental permits - GOV.UK Please note the riparian owner is responsible for the maintenance of their length of bank, as appropriate.
Informative for an extension within 250m of landfill: The above site has been reviewed for any potential contamination issues. The proposed development is situated within 250m of a registered landfill or significant area of unknown filled ground which potentially could produce landfill gas. The applicant is advised to consider incorporating matching landfill gas protection measures within the foundations of the proposed extension(s), so as not to compromise any existing gas protection measures which may have been installed in the existing building. If the existing building has no protection measures currently there is no need to install gas protection measures within the proposed extension. REASON To ensure that the risks to buildings and their occupants from landfill sites are adequately addressed.
The Local Planning Authority has acted positively and proactively in determining this application by assessing the proposal against all material considerations, including planning policies and any representations that may have been received and subsequently determining to grant planning permission in accordance with the presumption in favour of sustainable development, as set out within the National Planning Policy Framework.
