Proposed Spillway Development Oakenholt Reservoir Oakenholt Geotechnical, Geo-environmental and Earthworks Specification Report: Proposed Spillway Development Oakenholt Reservoir Oakenholt PREPARED FOR: April 2020 Job No: 15861 Esssity UK Ltd REPORT TITLE : Geotechnical, Geo-environmental and Earthworks Specification Report: Proposed Spillway Development, Oakenholt Reservoir, Oakenholt REPORT STATUS : Final JOB NUMBER : 15861 DATE : April 2020 PREPARED BY : REVIEWED BY : APPROVED BY : April 2020 ii 15861 Esssity UK Ltd Executive Summary Site Location Essity UK Ltd is proposing construction of a concrete auxiliary spillway upon the and land east of Oakenholt Reservoir, Oakenholt, Flint. The site is currently used as Proposed open farmland. Development The development site locates 4.5km southwest from Oakenholt, Flint. The site centres on an approximate National Grid Reference of 326300, 371090 occupying a plan area of approximately 1.00 Hectares. Site History The site has remained as open farmland since 1888. Very few changes have been made on-site and off-site since 1888. The current reservoir was built c.1899. Geology The 1:50000 scale geological map of the area (Sheet 108) was consulted for geology underlying the site. The site is shown to be underlain by the Gwespyr Sandstone which is Carboniferous in age. These rocks comprise fine-grained, feldspathic and micaceous sandstones. Made ground may be expected at the site, where earthworks may have taken place during the construction of the overflow pipe from the reservoir. Superficial deposits are not recorded on site. Radon No radon protective measures are required for new developments on the investigation site. Ground Ground Conditions on site were consistent throughout the site. Where the Conditions proposed development situates the following ground conditions were found: G.L. - 0.2/0.4 Soft dark brown silty gravelly CLAY. 0.2/0.4 - 0.5/1.4 Firm reddish brown slightly sandy silty gravelly CLAY. 0.5/1.4 - >2.0 Firm yellowish brown silty sandy gravelly CLAY. Laboratory All contaminant substances tested for were found to be present at concentrations Chemical considerably lower than their respective human health threshold levels for a Testing commercial setting. Earthworks As seen from the classifications of fill, the firm reddish-brown CLAY site won Specification materials are classified as dry/ stony cohesive material (Type 2B/C). Table 6.4 abstracted from Series 600 of the Specification for Earthworks listing the various type of compaction plant suitable for use with type 2B and 2C materials is presented in Annex G. The colliery spoil encountered within TP2 can be classified as a class 6B material. This material can be used as a starting layer, with the firm reddish-brown CLAY being compacted above this. Where this material is to be used, care should be taken to remove any particle size greater than that of the compaction layer i.e. timber, metal etc. Foundation For the proposed development it is recommended that traditional concrete raft and Floor foundations founded within competent in-situ fill material. Slab 2 Solution An allowable bearing pressure of 100kN/m may be used for design purposes. For the given foundation solution and bearing pressure, maximum total settlements of 25mm should result with differential movements of the superstructure not exceeding 1:750. These foundations should be designed as reinforced to avoid differential settlement issues. The foundations should penetrate at least 200mm into the founding horizon and in order to prevent any effects from frost heave the foundations should extend to a minimum depth of 900mm. Floor slabs should be designed as grounded. All foundation formations should be inspected by a suitably qualified Engineer before being concreted.

The site is currently used as open farmland. Terra Firma (Wales) Limited have been commissioned by Essity UK Ltd to undertake a geo-environmental assessment and geotechnical investigation of the site. The main objectives of the geo-environmental assessment programme were to: Investigate the potential environmental liabilities at the site associated with any soil contamination Provide a summary of the environmental conditions at the site, together with any necessary further intrusive works and / or remediation works to render the site fit for its intended use The main objectives of the geotechnical site investigation were to: Determine the type, strength and bearing characteristics of the shallow superficial and underlying solid geology Provide engineering earthworks specification recommendations for the development Provide recommendations with regard to any other geotechnical aspects pertaining to the development In order to achieve the above objectives, Terra Firma (Wales) Limited carried out an assessment programme including a site walkover, a review of existing data, followed by a field investigation to collect geotechnical and environmental data from selected locations. 1.2 Limitations and Exceptions of Investigation Essity UK Ltd has requested that a Geo-environmental Site Assessment (GSA) and Geotechnical Investigation (GI) be performed in order to determine if contamination is present beneath the site and to provide geotechnical recommendations associated with the proposed scheme. The GSA and GI were conducted, and this report has been prepared for the sole internal reliance of Essity UK Ltd and its design and construction team. This report shall not be relied upon or transferred to any other parties without the express written authorisation of Terra Firma (Wales) Limited. If an unauthorised third party comes into possession of this report, they rely on it at their peril and the authors owe them no duty of care and skill. The report represents the findings and opinions of experienced geo-environmental and geotechnical consultants. Terra Firma (Wales) Limited does not provide legal advice and the advice of lawyers may be required. The subsurface geological profiles, any contamination and other plots are generalised by necessity and have been based on the information found at the locations of the exploratory holes and depths sampled and tested.

I would like to pay tribute to the founder members for their inspiration and enterprise in launching the show back in the nineteen seventies. I would like to thank all the past and present members of the Show Committee for all their hard work, commitment and dedication along the way. Not forgetting all our old friends who are very sadly no longer with us. The contribution of all our other staunch supporters from near and far; who have worked tirelessly and contributed in so many different way over the last forty years in order to keep the show going, especially during the more challenging times, is also very much appreciated. That includes all our volunteer helpers for their invaluable labour, the stall holders, entertainers, exhibitors, judges, stewards and the charitable organisations who work, in conjunction with the committee, to stage the show. Staging the show also involves a major financial outlay that would be totally impossible without the generous support of all our many sponsors, for which we are extremely grateful. Caerwys is a traditional Agricultural Show, which provides an interesting day out for everybody from all walks of life, with something for all age groups, from children to senior citizens.

An important principle for our work is to aim to achieve a better democratic balance within each council area so that each vote cast in an election is, so far as reasonably practicable, of the same weight as all others in the council area. The achievement of this aim, along with other measures, would be conducive to effective and convenient local government. At the beginning of this review process we have found some considerable differences between the numbers of voters to councillors not only between council areas in Wales, but also within council areas themselves. The Commission is constrained by a number of things in the way we undertake our work: • The basic “building blocks” for electoral divisions are the community areas into which Wales is divided.
