PSMpc support the preferred site SN1052REV. If allocated Council wish to identify the following specific requirements. Provision is made to manage surface/drainage water. There have been historic problems with the drainage route via Norwich Road/Mill Lane. Despite recent upgrade/improvement on Norwich Road, following heavy or persistent rainfall, flooding occurs at the bottom of Mill Lane. In December 2020 seven properties were flooded in Station Road. This current drainage route also adds pressure of further flooding around the bottleneck created by the bridge crossing at the beck. Council therefore request consideration is given to the creation of an alternative drainage route.

Should this site be allocated, then we support the recommendation that development is focussed towards the eastern end, to allow sufficient distance from the adjacent woodland. Maintaining a stand-off distance between housing and woodland habitat reduces indirect impacts such as noise and lighting on woodland habitat and species. and also avoids damage to the root structures of the woodland edge.

SN1052REV – Land at Norwich Road, Pulham St Mary
Site is adjacent to the Waveney, Lower Yare and Lothingland IDD.
Major development - If surface water discharges within the watershed catchment of the Board's IDD, we request that this discharge is facilitated in line with the Non-statutory technical standards for sustainable drainage systems (SuDS).

Site: SN1052REV, Land at Norwich Road, Pulham St Mary
Although Hill Farmhouse, grade II listed lies to the north of the site, the site is screened by the intervening woodland and so no impact would be had on

Mitigation required for heavy constraints. Standard information required at a planning stage.
"1.] At risk of surface water flooding?: Yes
* 3.33% AEP Event [Extent]: No flooding present
* 3.33% AEP Event [Depth]: No flooding present.
* 1.0% AEP Event [Extent]: No flooding present
* 1.0% AEP Event [Depth]: No flooding present.
* 0.1% AEP Event [Extent]: Minor flooding|Moderate flooding
* 0.1% AEP Event [Depth]: 0.00 - 0.15cm.
2.] Internal & external flooding?:
* On-site: No
* Within proximity to site (~500.00m): Yes - Internal Flooding|Yes - External Flooding
3.] Watercourses [Online ordinary watercourses or mains rivers]?:
* On-site: No
* Within proximity to site (~100.00m): No
4.] Surface water sewer systems?:
* On-site: Yes
* Within proximity to site (~100.00m): Yes
5.] Source Protection Zone?: Source Protection Zone 3
6.] Internal Drainage Board?: No IDB referenced
7.] The site predominantly has superficial deposits of DIAMICTON. Comments on infiltration potential are dependent on a complete geotechnical investigation, including BRE365 Soakaway Testing. Where possible, surface water infiltration should be utilised." "The on-site flood risk contributes to a flow path in the 0.1% AEP event along the eastern side of the site. Flow lines indicate this flood water flows south off of the site, contributing to a larger flow path south of the site. We advise this must be considered in the site assessment.
A large area of the site is unaffected by flood risk and has the potential to be developed."
Assessment: Green

Green no major ecological constraints identified from desk-top search. Surveys, and biodiversity enhancement in accordance with policy required.
Site comprises field at edge of Pulham St Mary, adjacent to woodland. Some hedges around perimeter, which are a priority habitat so losses should be avoided, minimised and as a last resort, compensated for. No other priority habitats are identified (see MAGIC). Site within amber habitat zones for great crested newts. Site within a SSSI IRZ but residential development not a trigger for Natural England consultation. Applications for planning consent should be accompanied by a Preliminary Ecological Appraisal/Ecological Impact Assessment (EcIA) which, together with the mitigation hierarchy, should inform the design. Consideration should be given to delivering Biodiversity Net Gain.
