1 Contaminated Land Assessment

1.1 Background

The proposed development is to install new satellite monitoring equipment and associated support buildings within the RAF Croughton base.

1.2 Objectives

The objectives of this report are as follows:  To undertake a generic quantitative risk assessment and develop the conceptual model identifying potential contaminant linkages and to progress towards discharge of relevant planning conditions;  To report on the findings of the exploratory intrusive ground investigation.

1.3 Limitations

The findings and opinions of this report are based on information obtained from a variety of sources as detailed in this report, and which Mott MacDonald Limited believes is reliable. Nevertheless Mott MacDonald cannot and does not guarantee the authenticity or reliability of the information it has relied on from others. To the extent that this document is based on information obtained from a ground investigation (GI), persons using or relying on it should recognise that any such investigation can examine only a fraction of the subsurface conditions.

Mott MacDonald is not insured for, and therefore will not undertake surveys to identify asbestos or provide any guidance on the treatment of asbestos, or similar for toxic mould. Should the presence of asbestos or toxic mould be suspected during the course of the study, Mott MacDonald would recommend the appointment of a specialist contractor to address the issue and would not provide advice on risk or remedial measures.

Where Mott MacDonald has been responsible for the design of a GI, it has used reasonable skill and care. However, in any GI there remains a risk that pockets or “hot-spots” of contamination may not be identified, because investigations are necessarily based on sampling at localised points. Certain indicators or evidence of hazardous substances or conditions may have been outside the portion of the subsurface investigated or monitored and thus may not have been identified or their full significance appreciated. It is also possible that environmental monitoring has not identified certain conditions because of the relatively short monitoring period. Accordingly it is possible that the GI and monitoring failed to indicate the presence or significance of hazardous substances or conditions. If so, their presence could not have been considered in the formulation of Mott MacDonald’s findings and opinions.

1.4 Key Regulatory and Planning Drivers

The framework for the assessment of potential land contamination adopted in this report is based on current guidance documents, with particular reference to:

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

 DEFRA (2012) : “Environmental Protection Act 1990: Part 2A, Contaminated Land Statutory Guidance”  Contaminated Land Research Report SC050021/SR2 and SR3 describing the UK Contaminated Land Exposure Assessment framework for assessing human health risks;  DCLG (2012) : “National Planning Policy Framework”;  British Standard (BS) 10175:2013 , “Investigation of potentially contaminated sites”;  Environment Agency (2004) : “Model procedures for the management of land contamination”, CLR11;  Environment Agency (2010) : “Guiding Principles for Land Contamination”, GPLC1;  Environment Agency (2013) : “Groundwater Protection Policy and Practice”, GP3; and  Environment Agency (2006) : “Remedial Targets Methodology, Hydrogeological Risk Assessment for Land Contamination”.

Contamination present on a site from historical previous uses can be managed under Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (EPA’90) or the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended).

Part 2A is used when a local authority determines that a site poses a significant risk of causing harm to a sensitive receptor; the Act provides for the authority to determine a site as contaminated land and to require its remediation such that the risk of harm is no longer considered significant.

The Town and Country Planning Act provides a mechanism for the planning authority to enforce the remediation of a contaminated site which is being redeveloped.

1.4.1 Environmental Protection Act 1990, Part 2A

Historic contaminated land is managed in the UK through Part 2A of EPA’90 which provides a framework for assessing the significance of contamination in terms of the likelihood that a receptor will be harmed by the contamination present. For a site to be determined as contaminated land under the Act there must be a “significant possibility of significant harm” (SPOSH) or a “significant possibility of significant pollution to controlled waters” (SPOSPCOW). When such a determination is made the enforcing authority can require remediation of the site such that the risk of harm is no longer considered to be significant in terms of the current use of the site.

1.4.2 Planning Policy

New development is regulated under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended). This regime provides a mechanism for the planning authority to enforce the proper investigation of a development site in order to ensure that once development has occurred the site is suitable for its intended use. In England the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) provides guidance on the implementation of contaminated land and pollution management requirements to address contamination risks associated with future site uses through the planning system. Paragraphs 120 and 121 of the NPPF state the following:

“120: To prevent unacceptable risks from pollution and land instability, planning policies and decisions should ensure that new development is appropriate for its location. The effects (including cumulative effects) of pollution on health, the natural environment or general amenity, and the potential sensitivity of

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

the area or proposed development to adverse effects from pollution, should be taken into account. Where a site is affected by contamination or land stability issues, responsibility for securing a safe development rests with the developer and/or landowner.

121. Planning policies and decisions should also ensure that:  the site is suitable for its new use taking account of ground conditions and land instability, including from natural hazards or former activities such as mining, pollution arising from previous uses and any proposals for mitigation including land remediation or impacts on the natural environment arising from that remediation;  after remediation, as a minimum, land should not be capable of being determined as contaminated land under Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990”

1.4.3 Water Resources Act 1991

Under section 161 of the Water Resources Act 1991 the Environment Agency has the powers to recover the costs of cleaning up any poisonous, noxious or polluting matter or any solid waste matter than persons have caused or knowingly permitted to be present in controlled waters.

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

2 Site Setting

2.1 Site Location and description

The site is located approximately 2.5km east of the village of Croughton. The site lies within the south east section of RAF Croughton at approximate grid reference 456490, 232290. The A43 forms the eastern boundary. The B4031 forms the northern boundary and the Ockley Brook runs along the southern boundary. The site is located in the south eastern corner of the base within fields, currently grassed with some antenna arrays and small buildings.

The BGS website shows the site to be underlain by the White Limestone Formation of Lower Jurassic age typically “pale grey to off-white or yellowish limestone with rare sandy limestone, argillaceous limestone, marl and mudstone or clay.

2.2 Geology

Geological mapping was obtained from Envirocheck and is included in Appendix A. The 1:10,000 & 1:50,000 maps indicate the site to be underlain by limestone and interbedded limestone and mudstone of the Jurassic White Limestone Formation. Mudstone of the Jurrasic Rutland Formation is indicated beyond the site boundary to the south west. This may underlay the White Limestone Formation beneath the site. No superficial deposits or geological structures indicated on the site, however superficial deposits comprising alluvium, fluvial and glacial fluvial deposits, peat and tufa are indicated to overlay bedrock to the south, west and north of the site.

Faulting is also indicated to the north and south of the site though does not enter the site boundary. Made ground is indicated to the north of the site beneath the existing buildings.

BGS borehole records show soft to firm or stiff clay with limestone gravel and cobbles near the surface, or sandy gravel (weathered limestone) with limestone at depth. The thickness of the weathered zone at the site is variable, up to approximately 8.0m deep. Many of the BGS records show no groundwater present. A number of records close to the SATCOM site showed water at around 3m depth, although this was recorded 24 hours after drilling and may have represented water added during drilling.

2.3 Hydrology

An ‘Enviroinsight’ report was obtained from Groundsure which is provided in Appendix B. A water course is located on both the north and south boundaries of the base. Croughton Brook defines the northern boundary and Ockley Brook the southern boundary. A Highways England balancing pond is located on the south east boundary.

Ockley Brook is classified in the Groundsure report for the site as a Secondary River becoming a Primary River downstream near Pimlico Farm. Croughton Brook is classified as a Tertiary River becoming a Primary River to the west of the base.

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

2.8 Waste

There is one record of a historic landfill approximately 500m east of the site. It is recorded as having a licence for inert waste.

There are six waste transfer or treatment sites within 200m of the site. Two are registered to the current recycling facility on the base, which is located on the northern side of Glenn Road. The Recycling Centre handles all household and inert waste for the base. A further four are registered to the former RAF Croughton Medical Centre which is located approximately 450m north west of the Village Gate. This site is registered for the recycling of green waste, timber, soils and inert wastes.

There are three further sites which have licence to handle waste within 1500m of the site. The first is for reclamation of land at the former quarries 670m east of the Village Gate. The second is for a household waste transfer site 350m north of the Village Gate. The final site is a WEEE treatment facility approximately 821m from the Village Gate.

2.9 Water Abstraction and Discharge Consents

There are six abstraction licences recorded within the Groundsure report within 500m of the base Boundary. One is less than 10m south of the site. The remainder are beyond the base boundary and A43 to the east. All appear to be agricultural or small domestic uses.

2.10 Sensitive Land Uses and Statutory Designations

It should be noted that protected species (badgers and water voles) are recorded by the base to the north and south of the base boundary.

2.11 Ground Investigation

A ground investigation was carried out by Geotechnics Ltd in 2013 and the findings included in their Factual Report (Ground Investigation at RAF Croughton, Northamptonshire, Factual Report, ref. PC135160, October 2013). The scope of work was as follows:  Six no. trial pits to 1.50m to 2.00m depth.  Three no. dynamic sampling and rotary boreholes to depths between 10.00m and 14.00m bgl.  Six no. dynamic probes to depths between 1.15m and 2.54m (super-heavy).  Soakaway tests.  Resistivity tests.  Geotechnical testing – moisture content, LL, PL, PSD, particle density. Rock tests - point load, UCS, dry density, porosity.  Contamination testing – a range of metals, sulphate, pH, PAH, TPH, PCBs and asbestos were tested and the results are included in the Geotechnics Ltd Factual Report. Nine soil samples were taken between 0.30m and 1.80m depth and tested for heavy metals, sulphate and pH. Eight of the samples were tested for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) and EPH (C1—C40), BTEX and phenols. Six

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

3 Preliminary Contamination Assessment

The primary legislative regime under which historic contaminated land is managed in the UK is Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act (EPA), 1990i. The framework for the assessment of potential land contamination adopted in this report is based on current guidance documents regarding the implementation of Part IIA of the EPA and the assessment of potentially contaminated land. The National Planning Policy Framework (Department for Communities and Local Government, 2012) also includes policies in relation to contaminated land.

A key element of an environmental risk assessment is the development of a conceptual model which is done by undertaking a Source –Pathway – Receptor analysis of the Site:  Sources (S) are potential or known contaminant sources e.g. a former land use;  Pathways (P) are environmental systems thorough which a contaminant could migrate e.g. air, groundwater;  Receptors (R) are sensitive environmental receptors that could be adversely affected by a contaminant. E.g., Site occupiers, groundwater resources.

Where a source, relevant pathway and receptor are present, a pollutant linkage is considered to exist whereby there is a circumstance through which environmental harm could occur and a potential environmental liability is considered to exist.

The conceptual model for the site is presented in Table 3.1. A qualitative risk assessment in accordance with NHBC, EA, CIEH (2008)ii guidance has been undertaken.

3.1 Development of conceptual model – Hazard identification

For proposed development of the site, the following sources, pathways and receptors have been identified.

3.1.1 Sources of contamination

S1: Made Ground on site – landscaping and potentially backfilled quarries.

S2: Hazardous waste storage pad – records indicate petroleum, oils and liquid spills.

S2: Historical Contamination - from fuel spills and lead shot from small arms ranges.

S3: Roads & Car Parks – potential run off of hydrocarbons and spillages from vehicle activities.

S4: Substations – possible oils and PCBs.

S5: Off-site sources – farms, sewage works.

S6: Ground gas - made ground, potentially infilled quarries, CO2 from carbonate rocks.

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

3.1.2 Potential Contamination Pathways

P1: Human Uptake Pathways (derived from the CLEA model for Commercial uptake land use):

a) Ingestion of exposed soils/waters during construction;

b) Inhalation of soil/dust/volatised compounds via migration through permeable strata and conduits; and

c) Dermal contact with exposed soils/waters during construction.

P2: Transport through man made pathways (drainage, service conduits, and future foundations);

P3: Horizontal and vertical migration in permeable strata / groundwater;

P4: Horizontal and vertical migration of volatile vapours;

P5: Surface water flow including run off;

P6: Airborne construction dust.

3.1.3 Potential Contamination Receptors

R1: Construction workers.

R2: Final end users.

R3: Groundwater within the underlying aquifers.

R4: Buildings, structures and utilities.

R5: Surface water – Ockley Brook, forming the southern boundary of the base and Croughton Brook along the northern boundary of the site, balancing pond to the south-east and pond to the north of the site.

R6: Flora and fauna – badgers and water voles are noted within the vicinity of the site.

3.2 Hazard Assessment

Historical contamination is noted by the base in several areas. This historical contamination is reported to comprise fuel spills and lead from historical firing ranges.

There is also a hazardous waste storage pad in the southern part of the site. The type of waste stored in this area is unknown and leaks have occurred, infiltrating into the surrounding soils.

10 354717/BNI/EST/106/B February 2016 http://pims01/pims/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objaction=overview&objid=1599276928

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

Quarrying activity for limestone and sandstone has taken place historically in the vicinity of the site. It is a possibility that unrecorded quarrying has taken place on site in the past, which may have been backfilled with contaminated made ground.

The base has supplied information that suggests that cables from decommissioned antenna will have been abandoned in place. It is possible that these cables have started to corrode and therefore will raise the levels of metals within the local soils and groundwater, although it is thought that the probability of this being significant is low.

There is a potential for fuel and oils to have been deposited from the roadways and car parks on the base. Although tanks for generator fuel exist in the vicinity of some of the existing buildings, the base have informed Mott MacDonald that regular checks are made and leaks would be shown on the drawings supplied.

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

4 Generic Quantitative Risk Assessment

4.1 Background

The Generic Quantitative Risk Assessment assesses chemical test data for on-site contamination sources against standard guideline values for soil and leachate samples to assess the risk to human health, controlled waters, subsurface infrastructure and flora. This approach makes assumptions about risk factors which are typical of broad land use categories. Risk assessment criteria are necessarily conservative to reflect the uncertainty of the final site uses and contamination linkages. Insufficient data is available to quantify risks to construction and maintenance workers. Consequently risks to these receptors have been assessed on a qualitative basis.

4.2 Risks to Human Health

4.2.1 Methodology

Risks to human health from historically contaminated soils have been assessed by comparison of laboratory contamination data with Generic Screening Values established using the UK Contaminated Land Exposure Assessment (CLEA) and the DEFRA SP1010 frameworks. The Environment Agency has developed Soil Screening Values (SGVs); Suitable for Use Levels (S4ULs) have been developed by Land Quality Management (LQM) (Nathanail, et al., 2015) in accordance with the CLEA framework to replace the 2009 LQM/CIEH GAC values. Generic Assessment Criteria (GACs) have been developed by CL:AIRE, AGS, and EIC (2009).

S4ULs are based on the principles of “minimal” or “tolerable” risk enshrined within SR2 and are intended as “trigger values” above which further assessment of the risks may be needed. For each contaminant, S4ULs have been calculated for the four standard land use scenarios published within the CLEA model also include two new land uses for public open space developed by DEFRA.

LQM states that the Generic Assessment Criteria are “broadly equivalent to the Soil Guideline Values”. DEFRA (2012) recognises the use of the LQM and CL:AIRE Generic Assessment Criteria through statutory guidance thereby providing authoritative backing to their use in appropriate circumstances.

In the absence of SGVs and S4ULs, lead has been assessed by reference to Category 4 Screening Levels (C4SLs); C4SLs have been developed in support of DEFRA’s revision to the Statutory Guidance for Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. The revised guidance presents a four category system for determining land as contaminated land under Part 2A, ranging from Category 4 (the level of risk posed is acceptably low) to Category 1 (the level of risk is clearly unacceptable). The C4SLs provide criteria to determine whether land is suitable for use and definitely not contaminated land (i.e. contaminant concentrations do not present an unacceptable risk). The published C4SLs, S4ULs and SGVs are therefore conservative thresholds.

Commercial land use criteria have been utilised in the assessment.

RAF Croughton SATCOM Contaminated Land Assessment

SGVs, GACs and C4SLs can be used as a starting point for evaluating long-term, chronic exposure risks to human health from chemicals in soil; they do not consider short term, acute exposures, and exposure resulting from unauthorised trespass onto commercial sites.

4.2.2 Risks from non-asbestos contamination in soils to human health receptors

Nine soil samples were taken between 0.30m and 1.80m depth (topsoil and weathered limestone were tested for heavy metals, sulphate and pH. Eight of the samples were tested for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) and EPH (C1—C40), BTEX and phenols. Six soil samples were analysed for PCBs. Two WAC tests were carried out. All samples were screened for asbestos.

No leachate or groundwater tests were carried out. No ground gas monitoring was carried out.

Soil testing results have been compared to commercial ‘suitable for use levels’ (S4UL) published by Land Quality Management Ltdiii to assess risks to human health receptors. There were no exceedances of the commercial S4ULs within the nine samples of soil analysed.

4.3 Risks from ground gas

No gas monitoring was carried out as part of the ground investigation. Based on the available information risks from ground gas are anticipated to be moderate to low. It would be prudent to carry out a ground gas risk assessment based on monitoring data from standpipes.

4.4 Risks to controlled waters

The risk to controlled waters cannot be fully assessed as no leachate testing was carried out. However, given the low concentrations of PAH and TPH encountered in soil samples, and the lack of groundwater encountered during the ground investigation, the risk to groundwater is considered to be low.

4.5 Waste Acceptance Criteria Testing

WAC testing identified that the material is inert.

4.6 Conclusions

The ground investigation was undertaken in 2013, therefore further contamination may have occurred after that date.

Generally the site is considered to pose a moderate to low contamination risk due to the low levels of contamination recorded in the soil samples. However, the desk study information suggests there is some potential for contaminants to be encountered (typically fuel) particularly if groundwater levels are found to be higher during construction.

A Landmark Information Group Service v47.0 26-Oct-2012 Page 1 of 5 Artificial Ground and Landslip Artificial ground is a term used by BGS for those areas where the ground surface has been significantly modified by human activity. Information about previously developed ground is especially important, as it is often associated with potentially contaminated material, unpredictable engineering conditions and unstable ground.

Artificial ground includes:

- Made ground - man-made deposits such as embankments and spoil heaps on the natural ground surface. - Worked ground - areas where the ground has been cut away such as quarries and road cuttings. - Infilled ground - areas where the ground has been cut away then wholly or partially backfilled. - Landscaped ground - areas where the surface has been reshaped. - Disturbed ground - areas of ill-defined shallow or near surface mineral workings where it is impracticable to map made and worked ground separately.

Mass movement (landslip) deposits on BGS geological maps are primarily superficial deposits that have moved down slope under gravity to form landslips. These affect bedrock, other superficial deposits and artificial ground. The dataset also includes foundered strata, where the ground has collapsed due to subsidence.

They rest on older deposits or rocks referred to as Bedrock. This dataset contains Superficial deposits that are of natural origin and 'in place'. Other superficial strata may be held in the Mass Movement dataset where they have been moved, or in the Artificial Ground dataset where they are of man-made origin.

Most of these Superficial deposits are unconsolidated sediments such as gravel, sand, silt and clay, and onshore they form relatively thin, often discontinuous patches or larger spreads.

The bedrock has formed over vast lengths of geological time ranging from ancient and highly altered rocks of the Proterozoic, some 2500 million years ago, or older, up to the relatively young Pliocene, 1.8 million years ago.

The bedrock geology includes many lithologies, often classified into three types based on origin: igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary.

The BGS Faults and Rock Segments dataset includes geological faults and thin beds mapped as lines such as coal seams and mineral veins. These are not restricted by age and could relate to features of any of the 1:10,000 geology datasets.

This report is provided under and subject to the Terms & Conditions agreed between Groundsure and the Client. The document contains the following sections: 1. Environmental Permits, Incidents and Registers Provides information on Regulated Industrial Activities and Pollution Incidents as recorded by Regulatory Au- thorities, and sites determined as Contaminated Land. This search is conducted using radii up to 500m. 2. Landfills and Other Waste Sites Provides information on landfills and other waste sites that may pose a risk to the study site. This search is conducted using radii up to 1500m. 3. Current Land Uses Provides information on current land uses that may pose a risk to the study site in terms of potential contamination from activities or processes. These searches are conducted using radii of up to 500m. This includes information on potentially contaminative industrial sites, petrol stations and fuel sites as well as high pressure gas pipelines and underground electricity transmission lines. 4. Geology Provides information on artificial and superficial deposits and bedrock beneath the study site. 5. Hydrogeology and Hydrology Provides information on productive strata within the bedrock and superficial geological layers, abstraction licenses, Source Protection Zones (SPZs) and river quality. These searches are conducted using radii of up to 2000m. 6. Flooding Provides information on surface water flooding, flood defences, flood storage areas and groundwater flood areas. This search is conducted using radii of up to 250m. 7. Designated Environmentally Sensitive Sites Provides information on the Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), National Nature Reserves (NNR), Special Areas of Conservation (SAC), Special Protection Areas (SPA), Ramsar sites, Local Nature Reserves (LNR), Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), National Parks (NP), Environmentally Sensitive Areas, Nitrate Sensitive Areas, Nitrate Vulnerable Zones and World Heritage Sites and Scheduled Ancient Woodland. These searches are conducted using radii of up to 2000m. 8. Natural Hazards Provides information on a range of natural hazards that may pose a risk to the study site. These factors include natural ground subsidence. 9. Mining Provides information on areas of coal, “non-coal” mining and brine affected areas. 10. Contacts This section of the report provides contact points for statutory bodies and data providers that may be able to provide further information on issues raised within this report. Alternatively, Groundsure provide a free Technic- al Helpline (08444 159000) for further information and guidance. Note: Maps Only certain features are placed on the maps within the report. All features represented on maps found within this search are given an identification number. This number identifies the feature on the mapping and correlates it to the additional information provided below. This identification number precedes all other information and takes the following format -Id: 1, Id: 2, etc. Where numerous features on the same map are in such close proximity that the numbers would obscure each other a letter identifier is used instead to represent the features. (e.g. Three features which overlap may be given the identifier “A” on the map and would be identified separately as features 1A, 3A, 10A on the data tables provided). Where a feature is reported in the data tables to a distance greater than the map area, it is noted in the data table as “Not Shown”.

8 All distances given in this report are in Metres (m). Directions are given as compass headings such as N: North, E: East, NE: North East from the nearest point of the study site boundary.

5.7 Source Protection Zones within Confined Aquifer

Are there any Source Protection Zones within the Confined Aquifer within 500m of the study site?

Historically, Source Protection Zone maps have been focused on regulation of activities which occur at or near the ground surface, such as prevention of point source pollution and bacterial contamination of water supplies. Sources in confined aquifers were often considered to be protected from these surface pressures due to the presence of a low permeability confining layer (e.g. glacial till, clay). The increased interest in subsurface activities such as onshore oil and gas exploration, ground source heating and cooling requires protection zones for confined sources to be marked on SPZ maps where this has not already been done.

Report Reference: GS-2116426 Client Reference: 347177_Heather_Davies 51 6. Flooding

6.1 Risk of Flooding from Rivers and the Sea (RoFRaS)

What is the risk of flooding at the centre of the study site? High

What is the highest risk of flooding within 25m of the centre of the study site? High

The Environment Agency RoFRaS database provides an indication of river and coastal flood risk at a national level on a 50m grid as used by many of the insurance companies. RoFRaS data is based on a 50m grid system, with the flood rating at the centre of the grid calculated and given below. The data considers the probability that the flood defences will overtop or breach, and the distance from the river or the sea.

RoFRaS data for the study site indicates the property or an area within 25m has a High (1 in 30 or greater) chance of flooding in any given year.

The following floodplain records within 50m of the study site are represented on the River and Coastal Flood Risk Map above:

6.5 Groundwater Flooding Susceptibility Areas

6.5.1 Are there any British Geological Survey groundwater flooding susceptibility areas within 50m of the boundary of the study site?

Yes

Does this relate to Clearwater Flooding or Superficial Deposits Flooding? Clearwater Flooding

Notes: Groundwater flooding may either be associated with shallow unconsolidated sedimentary aquifers which overlie unproductive aquifers (Superficial Deposits Flooding), or with unconfined aquifers (Clearwater Flooding).

Report Reference: GS-2116426 Client Reference: 347177_Heather_Davies 53 6.5.2 What is the highest susceptibility to groundwater flooding in the search area based on the underlying geological conditions?

Potential at Surface

Where potential for groundwater flooding to occur at surface is indicated, this means that given the geological conditions in the area groundwater flooding hazard should be considered in all land-use planning decisions. It is recommended that other relevant information e.g. records of previous incidence of groundwater flooding, rainfall, property type, and land drainage information be investigated in order to establish relative, but not absolute, risk of groundwater flooding.

6.6 Groundwater Flooding Confidence Areas

What is the British Geological Survey confidence rating in this result? High

Notes: Groundwater flooding is defined as the emergence of groundwater at the ground surface or the rising of groundwater into man-made ground under conditions where the normal range of groundwater levels is exceeded.

The confidence rating is on a threefold scale - Low, Moderate and High. This provides a relative indication of the BGS confidence in the accuracy of the susceptibility result for groundwater flooding. This is based on the amount and precision of the information used in the assessment. In areas with a relatively lower level of confidence the susceptibility result should be treated with more caution. In other areas with higher levels of confidence the susceptibility result can be used with more confidence.

8.1 Detailed BGS GeoSure Data

BGS GeoSure Data has been searched to 50m. The data is included in tabular format. If you require further information on geology and ground stability, please obtain a Groundsure GeoInsight, available from our website. The following information has been found:

8.1.1 Shrink Swell

What is the maximum Shrink-Swell** hazard rating identified on the study site? Low

The following natural subsidence information provided by the British Geological Survey is not represented on mapping:

Hazard

Ground conditions predominantly medium plasticity. Do not plant trees with high soil moisture demands near to buildings. For new build, consideration should be given to advice published by the National House Building Council (NHBC) and the Building Research Establishment (BRE). There is a possible increase in construction cost to reduce potential shrink-swell problems. For existing property, there is a possible increase in insurance risk, especially during droughts or where vegetation with high moisture demands is present.

8.1.2 Landslides

What is the maximum Landslide* hazard rating identified on the study site? Low

The following natural subsidence information provided by the British Geological Survey is not represented on mapping:

Hazard

Possibility of slope instability problems after major changes in ground conditions. Consideration should be given to stability if changes to drainage or excavations take place. Possible increase in construction cost to reduce potential slope stability problems. Existing property no significant increase in insurance risk due to natural slope instability problems.

* This indicates an automatically generated 50m buffer and site.

Report Reference: GS-2116426 Client Reference: 347177_Heather_Davies 59 8.1.3 Soluble Rocks

What is the maximum Soluble Rocks* hazard rating identified on the study site? Low

The following natural subsidence information provided by the British Geological Survey is not represented on mapping:

Hazard

Significant soluble rocks are present. Low possibility of subsidence occurring naturally, but may be possible in adverse conditions such as high surface or subsurface water flow. Consider implications for stability when changes to drainage or new construction are planned. For new build site investigation should consider potential for dissolution problems on the site and its surroundings. Care should be taken with local drainage into the bedrock. Some possibility groundwater pollution. For existing property possible increase in insurance risk due to soluble rocks.

8.1.4 Compressible Ground

What is the maximum Compressible Ground* hazard rating identified on the study site? Moderate

The following natural subsidence information provided by the British Geological Survey is not represented on mapping:

Hazard

Significant potential for compressibility problems. Avoid large differential loadings of ground. Do not drain or de-water ground near the property without technical advice. For new build consider possibility of compressible ground in ground investigation, construction and building design. Consider effects of groundwater changes. Extra construction costs are likely. For existing property possible increase in insurance risk from compressibility, especially if water conditions or loading of the ground change significantly.

8.1.5 Collapsible Rocks

What is the maximum Collapsible Rocks* hazard rating identified on the study site? Very Low

The following natural subsidence information provided by the British Geological Survey is not represented on mapping:

Hazard

Deposits with potential to collapse when loaded and saturated are unlikely to be present. No special ground investigation required or increased construction costs or increased financial risk due to potential problems with collapsible deposits.

Report Reference: GS-2116426 Client Reference: 347177_Heather_Davies 60 8.1.6 Running Sand

What is the maximum Running Sand** hazard rating identified on the study site? Low

The following natural subsidence information provided by the British Geological Survey is not represented on mapping:

Hazard

Possibility of running sand problems after major changes in ground conditions. Normal maintenance to avoid leakage of water-bearing services or water bodies (ponds, swimming pools) should reduce likelihood of problems due to running sand. For new build consider possibility of running sand into trenches or excavations if water table is high or sandy strata are exposed to water. Avoid concentrated water inputs to site. Unlikely to be an increase in construction costs due to potential for running sand. For existing property no significant increase in insurance risk due to running sand problems is likely.

* This indicates an automatically generated 50m buffer and site.

They were produced between 1944 and 1951 as an interim measure, pending preparation of conventional mapping, due to post war resource shortages. New security measures in the 1950's meant that every photograph was re- checked for potentially unsafe information with security sites replaced by fake fields or clouds. The original editions were withdrawn and only later made available after a period of fifty years although due to the accuracy of the editing, without viewing both revisions it is not easy to spot the edits. Where available Landmark have included both revisions.

A Landmark Information Group Service v47.0 26-Oct-2012 Page 10 of 13 Ordnance Survey Plan Published 1982 Source map scale - 1:10,000 The historical maps shown were reproduced from maps predominantly held at the scale adopted for England, Wales and Scotland in the 1840`s. In 1854 the 1:2,500 scale was adopted for mapping urban areas; these maps were used to update the 1:10,560 maps. The published date given therefore is often some years later than the surveyed date. Before 1938, all OS maps were based on the Cassini Projection, with independent surveys of a single county or group of counties, giving rise to significant inaccuracies in outlying areas. In the late 1940`s, a Provisional Edition was produced, which updated the 1:10,560 mapping from a number of sources. The maps appear unfinished - with all military camps and other strategic sites removed. These maps were initially overprinted with the National Grid. In 1970, the first 1:10,000 maps were produced using the Transverse Mercator Projection. The revision process continued until recently, with new editions appearing every 10 years or so for urban areas.
