  • Issues Raised in Response to the Proposed Local Development Plan and Proposed Submission to Scottish Ministers Appendix 2 Settlement Comments
    ISSUES RAISED IN RESPONSE TO THE PROPOSED LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND PROPOSED SUBMISSION TO SCOTTISH MINISTERS APPENDIX 2 SETTLEMENT COMMENTS Shaping Buchan – Summary of Schedule 4s Minor technical changes are also proposed to improve the accuracy of information now provided by Scottish Water and SEPA (see Schedule 4 7908). “Schedule 4” documents (so named because of the requirement to follow the form specified by Schedule 4 of the relevant Regulations) have not been produced for those settlements where there have been no representations. Ardallie Main objections raised in representation Number of planned units on site OP1 should be reduced to take into account already submitted proposals. Development of site OP1 should include road upgrades. Response by Planning Authority The approved houses on site OP1 would take up part of the allocation, and no change is required. Upgrading the existing road to an adoptable standard is already required by the development brief. The section of private road heading east from site OP1 is not required to link the site to the public road network so it is not appropriate to require its upgrading. Minor technical change Remove the settlement boundary annotation (which only covers the allocated, protected and reserved sites), for consistency. Auchnagatt Main objections raised in representation Amend OP2 reference to strategic landscaping or extend site OP2 further south to the minor watercourse, so that strategic landscaping can be implemented outwith the allocated area. Response by Planning Authority The reference to strategic landscaping is only a recommendation – the most appropriate position and nature of strategic landscaping would be determined at the planning application stage.

  • 1 Coastal Agricultural Plain
    SNH National Landscape Character Assessment Landscape Character Type 17 COASTAL AGRICULTURAL PLAIN - ABERDEENSHIRE Location and Context The Coastal Agricultural Plain is an extensive Landscape Character Type comprising a low- lying and often very open sweep of exposed farmland in eastern Aberdeenshire where the influence of the sea is particularly strong. It is characterised by its gently undulating landform, relatively large scale, extensive mosses and the influence of development including transmission masts, electricity transmission lines, the A90 and A953, and the gas terminal at St Fergus on its eastern edge. The transition between the Beaches Dunes and Links Landscape Character Type in the east and the hinterland formed by this landscape is very gradual. Key Characteristics Low-lying and very gently undulating landform, with a pattern of subtle ridges and valleys in the north-east. Prominent landmark feature of Mormond Hill on the western edge of the area, which includes the White Horse and White Stag quartz hillside figures, the only such in Scotland. Water courses in broad shallow valleys. Mainly arable farming, with fairly extensive areas of moss and wetland. Large, open, geometric fields. Coniferous forest particularly extensive in southern part of the area. Limited broadleaf woodland, forming rare shelterbelts and small groups around farms. Well settled landscape of dispersed farms, many newer houses and a number of settlements, and occasional mansions in designed landscapes. Communication structures and tall masts

  • Peterhead – Inverugie Tee 132Kv Overhead Line Works Engineering Justification Paper
    SSEN Transmission RIIO-T2 Business Plan: T2BP-EJP-0049 l Peterhead – Inverugie Tee 132kV Overhead Line Works Engineering Justification Paper Page 1 of i © Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks Uncontrolled if Printed Document Reference T2BP-EJP-0049 Page 1 of 26 Peterhead-Inverugie 132kV OHL Works Engineering Justification Paper 1 Executive Summary Our paper A Risk Based Approach to Asset Management1 sets out our approach to network risk and how we subsequently identify assets that require intervention to limit the rise of risk over the RIIO-T2 period. This paper justifies the need for intervention on the 6.7km, 132kV double circuit overhead line (OHL) between Peterhead and the Inverugie Tee. The primary driver for the scheme is the asset condition with a secondary driver of network resilience. The results of the optioneering and detailed analysis presented in this paper conclude that the full refurbishment of the Peterhead - Inverugie Tee 132kV double circuit OHL and the concurrent reconductoring of phase and earth conductors is the optimal asset intervention solution. This work delivers an OHL asset that will maintain safe & secure operation for the north east 132kV network fed from Peterhead Substation. The scope of the Peterhead - Inverugie Tee OHL upgrade is as follows: · Reconductor 6.7km of existing 70mm2 ACSR Horse earth wire Keziah equivalent Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) conductor; · Reconductor 6.7km of existing 175mm2 Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR) Lynx phase conductors with 300mm2 All Aluminium Alloy Upas Conductors; · Tower painting, tower strengthening and repairing concrete muffs; and, · Mitigation works including ground works, panel extensions and a new tower to mitigate clearance infringements as identified.
