Informative(s)
01
You should note that the Council’s Neighbourhood Enforcement have a legal duty to investigate any complaints about noise or dust which may arise during the construction phase. If a statutory nuisance is found to exist they must serve an Abatement Notice under the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Failure to comply with the requirements of an Abatement Notice may result in a fine of up to £20,000 upon conviction in the Magistrates' Court. It is therefore recommended that you give serious consideration to reducing general disturbance by restricting the hours that operations and deliveries take place, minimising dust and preventing mud, dust and other materials being deposited on the highway.
02
Nature conservation protection under UK and EU legislation is irrespective of the planning system and the applicant should therefore ensure that any activity undertaken, regardless of the need for any planning consent, complies with the appropriate wildlife legislation. If any protected species are found on the site then work should halt immediately and an appropriately qualified ecologist should be consulted. For definitive information primary legislative sources should be consulted.
Furthermore, vegetation removal should be undertaken outside of the bird breeding season, March to September inclusive. If any clearance work is to be carried out within this period, a nest search by a suitably qualified ecologist should be undertaken immediately preceding the works. If any active nests are present, work which may cause destruction of nests or, disturbance to the resident birds must cease until the young have fledged.
03
Measures to facilitate the provision of gigabit-capable full fibre broadband for the development hereby approved should be carried out, please see attached Informative Note in this respect.
04
There is an existing lighting column on the site frontage, should the formation of any of the proposed driveways affect this lighting column, then contact should be made with Rotherham MBCs Streetpride Department in order for arrangements to be agreed to relocate the lighting column at the applicant’s expense.
05
In order to discharge the drainage condition (condition 10), the applicant is advised that they would be expected to submit information including but not limited to the following:
Surface water drainage plans should include the following:
• Rainwater pipes, gullies and drainage channels including cover levels.
• Inspection chambers, manholes and silt traps including cover and invert levels.
• Pipe sizes, pipe materials, gradients and flow directions.
• Soakaways, including size and material.
• Typical inspection chamber / soakaway / silt trap and SW attenuation details.
• Site ground levels and finished floor levels.
If infiltration systems are to be used for surface water disposal, the following information must be provided:
• Ground percolation tests to BRE 365.
• Ground water levels records. Minimum 1m clearance from maximum seasonal groundwater level to base of infiltration compound. This should include assessment of relevant groundwater borehole records, maps and on-site monitoring in wells.
• Soil / rock descriptions in accordance with BS EN ISO 14688-1:2002 or BS EN ISO 14689-1:2003
• Volume design calculations to 1-in 100-year rainfall + 40% climate change standard. An appropriate factor of safety should be applied to the design in accordance with CIRIA C753 – Table 25.2.
• Location plans indicating position (Soakaways serving more than one property must be located in an accessible position for maintenance). Soakaways should not be used within 5m of buildings or the highway or any other structure.
• Drawing details including sizes and material.
• Details of a sedimentation chamber (silt trap) upstream of the inlet should be included.
Soakaway detailed design guidance is given in CIRIA Report 753, CIRIA Report 156 and BRE Digest 365.
06
The development should be designed and built to Secured by Design standards. www.securedbydesign.com The dwellings will need to comply with approved document Q which specifically states the minimum standards for door and window security, this is the same as the Police approved standard for Secure by Design, therefore there is no additional cost but considerable value will be added to the development. It will also add the value of ensuring that products used have reached Police approved specifications and third party testing.
