EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This is an application for full planning permission to build 10 affordable (‘social rented’) dwellings and associated works including improvements to the adopted highway and ‘soft’ and ‘hard’ landscaping. For policy purposes, the site is in the defined settlement of Bonvilston (a ‘minor rural settlement’ in the LDP’s settlement hierarchy) and Flood Zone A (little or no risk of flooding from rivers and the sea). Technical advisers do not object to the proposal, but members of the public express concern over several aspects of the proposal. Officers conclude that the development proposal is acceptable in principle and would have an acceptable effect on visual amenity, residential amenity, highway safety, ecology, drainage and environmental health. It is recommended that planning permission be granted with conditions.

  • Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy Vale of Glamorgan
    The Vale of Glamorgan Council/Cyngor Bro Morgannwg Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy February 2005 VALE OF GLAMORGAN COUNCIL CONTAMINATED LAND INSPECTION STRATEGY JANUARY 2005 First Prepared by Michael Jenkins - April 2001 Contaminated Land Officer Reviewed by George Cowie Pollution Control Officer Executive Summary This Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy has been prepared by the Vale of Glamorgan Council to fulfil the legal requirement of Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Pt IIA came into force on the 1st July 2001 and provided a new regulatory standard for the identification and remediation of historically contaminated land. This strategy document updates the previous strategy document, which was first published in April 2002, and details the methodology to be employed by the Vale of Glamorgan Council to implement it's duties under Part IIA of The Environmental Protection Act (EPA), 1990. The document reveals the inspection process and sets time scales for completion that will be used by the Vale of Glamorgan Council. The EPA defines contaminated land as any land where there appears to be a significant risk of significant harm to human health and or controlled waters due to substances in, on or under the land. In determining whether land is contaminated local authorities, including the Vale of Glamorgan, must use the principle of Pollutant Linkage. That is a link must be found between a source of potential contamination and a receptor, such as a watercourse or future or current users of a site. All three parts of the linkage, that is source, pathway and receptor, must be present before any land can be designated as contaminated.

Although now in serious decline, the coal industry was fundamental in shaping the development of modern Wales, particularly in the south. For a brief period of time in the late 19th and early 20th centuries it was arguably also Britain’s greatest single export and Welsh ‘steam coal’ powered the industrial and transport revolutions taking place across the world. The coal industry bestrode Wales like a behemoth. Most of the coal was exported and therefore the coal trade was by necessity largely a maritime trade. Both South and North Wales had separate coal industries. The coalfields of North Wales were in the north-east. The South Wales coalfield extended across a wide area, from Abersychan in the east to St Bride’s Bay in the west.
