Notes to Applicant

 

You are reminded that the approved Tree Report suggests the need for the use of grasscrete or a reduced dig construction for the coach parking area of the car park and the submission of details required under condition 6 and 12 should reflect this.

 

You are advised that in relation to the condition 7 consideration will need to be given to the species proposed. Trees within or close to area of parking need to be suitable for their location and it is considered that there appears to be space for replacement planting to the north of the car park. Tree planting outside of the car park should be native where possible.

 

You are advised to ensure disturbance to neighbours is kept to a minimum during construction by restricting working hours to Monday to Friday 7.00am to 7.00pm, Saturday 8.00am to 5.00pm and by not working on Sundays or Bank Holidays. If you intend to work outside these hours you are requested to contact the Environmental Health Officer on 0115 9148322.

 

Your attention is drawn to the following information:

 

The use of external lighting (during construction and post construction) should be appropriate to avoid adverse impacts on bat populations, see http://www.bats.org.uk/pages/bats_and_lighting.html for advice and a wildlife

sensitive lighting scheme should be developed and implemented.

 

 

Good practice construction methods should be adopted including:

-         Advising all workers of the potential for protected species. If protected species are found during works, work should cease until a suitable qualified ecologist has been consulted.

-         No works or storage of materials or vehicle movements should be carried out on or adjacent to sensitive habitats.

-         All work impacting on vegetation or buildings used by nesting birds should avoid the active bird nesting season, if this is not possible a search of the impacted areas should be carried out by a suitably competent person for nests immediately prior to the commencement of works. If any nests are found work should not commence until a suitably qualified ecologist has been consulted.

-         Best practice should be followed during building work to ensure trenches dug during works activities that are left open overnight should be left with a sloping end or ramp to allow animal that may fall in to escape. Also, any pipes over 200mm in diameter should be capped off at night to prevent animals entering. Materials such as netting and cutting tools should not be left in the works area where they might entangle or injure animals. No stockpiles of vegetation should be left overnight and if they are left then they should be dismantled by hand prior to removal.

-                  Night working should be avoided.

-         Root protection zones should be established around retained trees / hedgerows so that storage of materials and vehicles, the movement of vehicles and works are not carried out within these zones.

-         Pollution prevention measures should be adopted.

-         Consideration should be given to energy efficiency, alternative energy generation, green travel (including cycle storage and electric vehicle charging), water efficiency, management of waste during and post construction and the use of recycled materials and sustainable building methods.
