The existing wider facility contains a laboratory and explain the various facets of design and access in relation to workshop although these are located within a blast zone. As the site and to appraise the proposed development against such the proposal will relocate the two buildings outside of the relevant planning policies. It also presents the details of a blast zone providing a safer and contemporary facility. planning application in a way that can be read both by professionals and the public. 1.7 The vision is to provide two contemporary buildings that reflects recent developments elsewhere within the refinery site 1.2 The diagram below, extracted from Chapter 3 of whilst also providing more efficient working space. Planning Policy Wales, summarises the five objectives of good design that should be taken into account when preparing a DAS. The circular nature of the diagram represents the equal weightings that need to be given to each of the 5 Objectives of Good Design: Access; Movement; Character; Environmental Sustainability and Community Safety. STATEMENT 1.3 The submitted Design and Access Statement adheres to guidance embodied in the Welsh Government publication, Design and Access Statements in Wales, published in April A C CE S S 2017. & 1.4 The statement is subdivided into 8 sections, commencing with an outline of the brief and vision for the project in section 2.

Section 4 interprets and applies the context of the brief and vision for the site, whilst section 5 summarises how the design has evolved. Section 6 provides a brief overview of the relevant planning policy with section 7 setting out the proposal, explores the relevant design and access facets associated with the application and provides a response to planning policy. The document then concludes, under section 8. The Brief and Vision 1.5 The proposal includes the development of a new laboratory building and workshop building located at the existing Valero Refinery site located within Rhoscrowther, Pembrokeshire.

The Osecretary reported the arrangements made forth e Autumnal Meeting at Bristol before it was known that the gatherings of the Congregational Union would be postponed, and the thanks of the Society were forwarded to Mr. G. H. Wicks of that city for having prepared a paper to be read on the occasion. The preparations for the Historical Exhibition were necessarily post­ p0ned owing to the war, but the secretary undertook to report at the next meeting what the prospects were of resuming the work. The t:·easurer reported a small balance in hand, that satisfactory result b.'ing mainly due to a kind grant from the Coward Trust made tlm:ugh the president of the Society, Dr. John Brown, who was happily present at the meeting, and was congratulated on the sixtieth anniversary of his leaving Lancashire College for the Congregational ministry.

  • Case Study - Valero Energy Oil Refinery
    Case Study - Valero Energy Oil Refinery Background: LOBO Advanced Platform System And Valero Energy at Pembroke Refinery. The Pembroke Refinery is an oil refinery situated on the Pembrokeshire coast in Rhoscrowther, South West Wales. It first came on stream in 1964. The refinery occupies a prominent position on the south bank of the Milford Haven Waterway and can be seen for many miles. Valero Energy Approximately a quarter of the site is within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. It was initially owned by The Regent Oil Company, a large domestic marketer of Trinidad-produced oils. The Regent Oil Company was fully acquired by Texaco in 1956 (although the brand name was only phased out in the UK in favour of Texaco in the late 1960s). Chevron acquired Texaco in 2000 and Valero Energy Corporation bought the refinery from Chevron in 2011. In August 1992, Texaco offered to purchase the entire village of Rhoscrowther, which lies immediately adjacent to the refinery. Many of the residents accepted the offer - especially after a large explosion occurred - which included their properties being purchased at market price plus reasonable expenses. Once the properties were acquired by the refinery, they were demolished. Today, five houses, a 14th-century church and an abandoned farm are all that remain of Rhoscrowther. Production Units The refinery has a fluid catalytic cracking unit that came on stream in 1982. It also has an HF Alkylation unit, a catalytic reforming unit and three hydro treating type units. Pembroke refinery has the capability of refining high Total Acid Number crude oils like Captain and Doba crudes.

  • The Law of Hywel
    02 Elias WHR 27_7_06.qxp 09/08/2006 12:04 Page 27 LLYFR CYNOG OF CYFRAITH HYWEL AND ST CYNOG OF BRYCHEINIOG Cyfraith Hywel (the Law of Hywel) is the name given to the native Welsh law texts, written in Welsh and Latin, which are preserved in manuscripts datable to the period between c.1250 and c.1550, and originating from different parts of Wales.1 These law texts are tradition- ally attributed by their prefaces to the tenth-century king, Hywel Dda.2 Other authors or editors are also mentioned in the texts.3 Some of these were secular rulers or other laymen and some were clerics. The most well-known are Blegywryd,4 Cyfnerth and Morgenau,5 and Iorwerth ap Madog,6 to whom the main Welsh redactions, namely Llyfr Blegywryd, Llyfr Cyfnerth and Llyfr Iorwerth, are attributed. Other names, such as Rhys ap Gruffudd,7 Bleddyn ap 1 I am grateful to Morfydd E. Owen, who first suggested the possibility that the Cynog of the law tracts should be identified with St Cynog and supervised the thesis from which this article is derived. Thanks also to Huw Pryce for his biblio- graphical references, to Howard Davies for his many helpful suggestions, and Helen Davies for help with the Latin translations. For a list of the manuscripts and their sigla, see T. M. Charles-Edwards, The Welsh Laws (Cardiff, 1989), pp. 100–2. 2 J. G. Edwards, ‘Hywel Dda and the Welsh lawbooks’, in D.
