Land Contamination

 

19

Prior to commencement of development, an intrusive investigation and subsequent risk assessment must be undertaken by competent persons to determine the presence of the highwall, the current ground gassing regime and to determine that no significant soil or groundwater contamination is present beneath areas that were previously inaccessible and a written report of the findings must be produced. The written report is subject to the approval in writing of the Local Planning Authority.  Investigations to determine the location of the highwall must be undertaken in accordance with the letter prepared by Eastwoods & Partners Ltd entitled ‘Preliminary Recommendations for Development over Opencast Highwall – Blue Mans Way, Catcliffe’, dated March 2021, reference CAT/DN/45620-001

Reason

To ensure that risks from land contamination to the future users of the land and neighbouring land are minimised, together with those to controlled waters, property and ecological systems, and to ensure that the development can be carried out safely without unacceptable risks to workers, neighbours and other offsite receptors.
