No further works should be undertaken in the areas of suspected contamination, other than that work required to be carried out as part of an approved remediation scheme, unless otherwise agreed by the Local Planning Authority, until requirements 1 to 4 below have been complied with: 1. Detailed site investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken by competent persons in accordance with the Environment Agency’s ‘Land Contamination: Risk Management’ guidance and a written report of the findings produced. The risk assessment must be designed to assess the nature and extent of suspected contamination and approved by the Local Planning Authority prior to any further development taking place. 2. Where identified as necessary, a detailed remediation scheme to bring the site to a condition suitable for the intended use by removing unacceptable risks to identified receptors must be prepared and is subject to the approval of the Local Planning Authority in advance of undertaking. The remediation scheme must ensure that the site will not qualify as Contaminated Land under Part 2A Environmental Protection Act 1990 in relation to the intended use of the land after remediation. 3. The approved remediation scheme must be carried out in accordance with its terms prior to the re-commencement of any site works in the areas of suspected contamination, other than that work required to carry out remediation, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. 4.

Positive and Proactive Statement. In dealing with this application, the Council has worked with the applicant in the following ways:- seeking further information following receipt of the application; seeking amendments to the proposed development and considering the imposition of conditions. In such ways the Council has demonstrated a positive and proactive manner in seeking solutions to problems arising in relation to the planning application.
• The Public safety of those using the right of way must be ensured at all times. • There must be no diminution in the width of the rights of way available for use by the public. • There must be no change to the surface of a Public Right of Way without written consent from the authority. • Building materials must not be stored on the rights of way. • Vehicle movements and parking are to be arranged so as not to unreasonably interfere with the public’s use of the rights of way. • No additional barriers are to be placed across the rights of way. No stile, gate, fence or other structure should be created on, or across, a public right of way without written consent of the Highway Authority.
Where possible, the definitive line of public rights of way should be kept open and available for use throughout the construction phase. However, if Public Safety demands a temporary closure, application should be made at least 8 weeks in advance to: The Public Rights of Way Mapping Team at prowclosures@worcestershire.gov.uk. Obstructing a Public Right of Way without a formal closure constitutes an offence under the Highways Act 1980.
