In relation to condition 06 The applicant is to enter into an agreement with the Council to maintain the grass highway verge as part of the landscaped areas within the site 02 South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue access for fire appliances should be in accordance with Building Regulations, Approved Document B, volume 1, Requirement B5 section 13. Your attention is drawn to Table 13.1 where the pump appliance is quoted as 12.5 tonnes maximum carrying capacity (MCC) and for a high reach appliance the MCC is 17.0 tonnes. South Yorkshire pump and high reach appliances both have a MCC of 18.0 tonnes. Therefore, any roadways and associated inspection covers should be capable of withstanding these weights. Water supplies for fire-fighting purposes should be provided to comply with Building Regulations Approved Document B, volume 1 Requirement B5 section 14. 03 South Yorkshire Police It is recommend that the development is designed and built to Secured by Design standards www.securedbydesign.com 04 Drainage In order to discharge Conditions 13 & 14, the applicant is advised that they would be expected to submit information including but not limited to the following: 5. 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. 6. Surface Water Discharge From Brownfield Site: There should be no increase in surface water discharge from the site to existing sewers / watercourses. On site surface water attenuation will therefore be required if drained areas to existing sewers / watercourses are to be increased. A 30% net reduction to existing peak discharge (up to a 1/100 yr storm + 40% CC) will be required if the site is being re-developed. A full justification will be required where the development cannot achieve the 30% betterment on the existing run-off rate. 7. On Site Surface Water Management: The site is required to accommodate rainfall volumes up to 1 in 100 year return period (plus climate change) whilst ensuring no flooding to buildings or adjacent land. The applicant will need to provide details and calculations including any below ground storage, overflow paths (flood routes), surface detention and infiltration areas etc. to demonstrate how the 100 year + 40% CC rainfall volumes will be controlled and accommodated. Where cellular storage is proposed and is within areas where it may be susceptible to damage by excavation by other utility contractors, warning signage should be provided to inform of its presence. Cellular storage and infiltration systems should not be positioned within highway. Guidance on flood pathways can be found in BS EN 752. Any SuDS/Drainage system installed must not be at the detriment to the receiving watercourse or ground (infiltration), so manging the quality of the run-off to must be incorporated into any design in accordance with CIRIA 753 The SuDS Manual The design of flow control devices should, wherever practicable, include the following features: a) Flow controls may be static (such as vortex flow controls or fixed orifice plates) or variable (such as pistons or slide valves); b) Controls should have a minimum opening size of 100 mm chamber, or equivalent; c) A bypass should be included with a surface operated penstock or valve; and d) Access should be provided to the upstream and downstream sections of a flow control device to allow maintenance. For major developments, the LPA is required to ensure there are suitable ongoing maintenance arrangements over the lifetime of the development (see NPPF). Options for SuDS adoption and maintenance include: a) Adoption by Water and Sewerage Company (WSC) - The developer may enter into a section 104 agreement (Water Industry Act 1991) with the local WSC. b) Private Maintenance Arrangement. Provide all drainage management and maintenance plans for the lifetime of the development, which shall include the arrangements for adoption by any public authority or statutory undertaker and any other arrangements to secure the operation of the scheme throughout its lifetime (e.g. signed Section 104 agreement) POSITIVE AND PROACTIVE STATEMENT The applicant and the Local Planning Authority engaged in pre application discussions to consider the development before the submission of the planning application. The application was submitted on the basis of these discussions, or was amended to accord with them. It was considered to be in accordance with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework.
