Respondent: South Norfolk Council

Representation Summary:

SN0210 The Environmental Protection Team is aware that this site includes a former gravel pit that has been historically filled with an unknown material. Having regard to this along with the size of the site and sensitivity of the proposed development it is considered that a Detailed Land Contamination Report (Phase One and Phase Two) should be required as part of any planning application.

The site is close to a commercial premises and the Norfolk County Council Recycling Centre in Welbeck both of which have the potential to have a negative impact on the amenity of the residents of any dwellings constructed on the site due to noise, dust and odour. It is therefore considered that this will need to be addressed as part of any application for dwellings.
