Head of Public Protection – More information has been requested by Environmental Health officers on the following grounds - The noise emission data submitted with the application stipulates that the test has been undertaken with regards to a turbine with a hub height of 22.6m, however the proposed wind turbine has a hub height of 36.6m. The noise predictions need to include a correction to account for this difference in hub heights. Also the roughness factor that has been used in the calculations is 0.01, however IEC 61400-11 recommend using ground roughness of 0.05m, therefore this also need to be accounted for. Further information has been submitted by the applicant following the case officer’s request for the above details. This information is currently being assessed by Public Protection Officers. Cynwyl Elfed Community Council – Have responded and requested that more information is submitted with the application, however, the community council have not specified in their response what information is required. Tudalen 5 Local Member - County Councillor H Irfon Jones has requested for the application to be reported to planning committee, to assess the economic benefit of the proposal to agriculture enterprise. Ministry of Defence – No objection subject to the MoD standard condition relating to the submission of details once the turbine has been constructed. Spectrum Licensing – No adverse comments raised. The Joint Radio Company Ltd – No interference predicted from proposed turbine. NATS – No safeguarding objection to the proposal. Civil Aviation Authority – No adverse comments raised. CADW – Have assessed the proposal’s impact upon the setting of scheduled ancient monuments in the area and consider the impact of the proposed turbine on settings of these monuments will be, at worst, very slight. Dyfed Archaeological Trust – No response received to date. Natural Resources Wales – We have no objection to the proposal subject to the turbine being sited in accordance with the guidance in Natural England Technical Information note TIN051 ‘Bats and Onshore Wind Turbines’ 3rd Edition (March 2014). Neighbours/Public - The application has been publicised by the posting of Site Notices adjacent to the site. Five letters of objection have been submitted and these are summarised below:- • Impact upon the landscape and visual amenities of surrounding occupiers and users of the area. • The proposal will have an unacceptable cumulative landscape and visual impact. Turbines are becoming the defining feature in the landscape. • The Inspector’s decision letter raised concerns in respect of W/29252 which are still valid in the case of this proposed turbine which has been re-sited to the north west and close to the two existing turbines on the holding. • Noise impact. • Residents at Glanrhyd consider that the separation distance of 500m from the proposed turbine is too close. • Concern regarding the lack of publicity. • Impact on wildlife. RELEVANT PLANNING HISTORY The following previous applications have been received on the application site:- W/26149 Two 50kw wind turbines Full planning permission 16 July 2013 W/29252 Single turbine (50kw) Appeal dismissed 2nd September 2015 Tudalen 6 APPRAISAL The application was reported to Planning Committee on 15 th December 2015. Members of the Committee unanimously agreed to a site visit following a request by the local member. The report has been updated in response to the local member’s comments on the report’s assessment of economic benefits and landscape and visual impacts. The report has been amended following further details received in respect of noise impact. Details of the formal responses of the Council’s Landscape Officer and Head of Transport and Engineering have also been included. Finally a further refusal reason has been added given that the proposal is also contrary to the Council’s Farm Diversification policy. THE SITE The application site is an area of agricultural land located to the north west of settlement of Hermon and to the south of Cmwpengriag. The site is located off the western flank of the B4333 Road leading from Cynwyl Elfed to Newcastle Emlyn. The site is located outside of development limits in the open countryside. The nearby area has a few sporadic developments generally in the form of farmsteads. The land slopes from the road to the site. The area has no specific designation and is considered to be located in open countryside. The holding relating to the application is known as Triol Bach. The turbine is located to the western end of the land within the applicant’s ownership. The closest property to the turbine (non-financial interest) is Maes y Pwll located to south west approximately 497m from the turbine. Planning permission was refused by the Council (W/29252) and later dismissed at appeal in September 2015 (APP/M6825/A/15/3005586) for a turbine on the applicant’s land some 500m to the south east of the current application site. The appointed Inspector agreed with the Council’s original refusal reasons on cumulative landscape and visual grounds. Approximately 182m and 211m respectively from the application site and on the applicant’s land permission was given for two turbine in July 2013 (W/26149 refers). These are now operational and measure 45m in height and have a rating of 50kw each. To the north west of these operational turbine (approximately 190m-204m) is the location of a consented single turbine pertaining to the Ysgubor Gwair holding. This is not currently operational but once erected will measure approximately 45m A further operational turbine is located approximately 1.18km to the south east of the application site at Clynmaenllwyd farm (Application Number W/26298 refers).
