1.0 Executive Summary

1.1 Keystone Ecology was instructed by Entran to undertake an update Ecological Appraisal of land within the Willowbrook East Industrial Estate adjacent to Shelton Road, Corby, (central Ordnance Survey grid reference SP 909 908). The survey was required to inform a proposed amendment to the existing planning permission for the erection of an ACT and Anaerobic Digestion facility (13/00079/WASTEFUL).

1.2 The baseline ecology of the site is not considered to have changed since the original Ecological Appraisal (Keystone Ecology, 2013).

1.3 In the absence of mitigation, the following ecological constraints and associated recommendations have been identified:

 Non-Statutory Sites; (Nene Valley NIA and pLWS), Biodiversity Habitat (Deciduous Woodland) and White Clawed Crayfish - Installation of hoarding to avoid impacts associated with increased lighting and noise during the construction phase. Implementation of Pollution Prevention measures to avoid incidents to the Willow Brook. Implementation of measures to reduce dust deposition during construction; and

 Badger, Bats, Great Crested Newt, Reptiles and Breeding Birds – Adoption of a sensitive lighting strategy throughout the construction and operational phases of the development. Installation of hoarding to protect retained habitats and avoid lighting and noise. Avoidance of the clearance of suitable habitats in the first instance. Where this is not possible, minimal clearance only following a Precautionary Working Method Statement and replacement of habitats using native species, ideally of local provenance will be required.

1.4 In addition, a number of ecological enhancements have been proposed for the development. In combination with the mitigation measures as set out above, residual impacts are considered to be Negligible.

2.0 Introduction

Background

2.1 Keystone Ecology was instructed by Entran to undertake an update Ecological Appraisal of land within the Willowbrook East Industrial Estate adjacent to Shelton Road, Corby, Northamptonshire (central Ordnance Survey grid reference SP 909 908). The survey was required to inform a proposed amendment to the existing planning permission for the erection of an ACT and Anaerobic Digestion facility (13/00079/WASTEFUL).

2.2 This report provides an update to the Ecological Appraisal conducted in 2013 by Keystone Ecology (Keystone Ecology, 2013) and assessment of any change in the baseline conditions with reference to the amended proposals for the development.

Aims and Objectives

2.3 The aim of the survey and supporting desk study was to satisfy the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF - see Section 5.0), identifying ecological features within or near the site that could potentially pose a constraint to the proposed development and opportunities for incorporating biodiversity enhancements into the development proposals. The following ecological features are relevant to this exercise:

 Statutory and local designated wildlife sites;

 England Biodiversity Priority (EBP) or local Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) habitats and networks of these habitats;

 Ancient Woodland Inventory sites;

 Important hedgerows (as defined by The Hedgerows Regulations 1997);

 Veteran Trees, those listed under Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) and trees within a Conservation Area;

 Legally protected species;

 EBP or local BAP species;

 The wider green infrastructure resource; and

 Invasive species.

2.4 This report has been produced with reference to current guidelines for preliminary ecological appraisal (CIEEM, 2013) and in accordance with BS42020:2013: Biodiversity - Code of Practice for Planning and Development.

Site Context

2.5 The development site is located along the eastern perimeter of the Willowbrook East Industrial Estate and comprises a large car forecourt with thin strips of grassland, scrub and trees present along the site boundary.

2.6 Two further large car forecourts lie west of the site with numerous steel clad industrial units located to the south. Rockingham race track lies approximately 350 metres to the north of the site, with an area of mosaic of scrub, bare ground and deciduous woodland in between. The Willow Brook runs through the woodland to the north, parallel to the site.

3.0 Methodology

Desk Study

3.1 Information from Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre (NBRC)/Northants Bat Group(NBG) was received, and Natural England site designations accessed, on 4th June 2015. Information obtained was used to provide a background on ecological features in the vicinity of the site. Refer to Appendix 1 for details of records requested, search radii and sources of information.

Field Survey

3.2 The Extended Phase I Habitat Survey was undertaken on 28th May 2015 by an experienced ecologist from Keystone Ecology (Dr Sarah Jackson CEcol, CEnv, MCIEEM).

3.3 Phase I Habitat Survey (JNCC, 2010) is a standard technique for obtaining baseline ecological information for large areas of land in which the main vegetation types present within the survey area are mapped using a standard set of habitat categories. The site was surveyed using a modified version of this technique whereby an additional habitat category, ‘coarse grassland,’ was used to describe species-poor, unmanaged, secondary grasslands and an additional habitat category ‘non-native hedgerow’ was used to describe hedgerows comprised of at least 20% non-native species.

3.4 In addition to mapping, each of the main habitats within the survey area was described; including details of component plant species abundances (recorded using the DAFOR scale1).

3.5 Incidental observations of protected and/or EBP/local BAP species and the potential for such species to occur on site (and in the surrounding landscape where relevant) were also noted; however no specific protected/ EBP/local BAP species surveys were undertaken.

Results and Evaluation

3.6 Potential ecological constraints to development have been identified from desk study and field survey data using current development proposals. An ecological value has been assigned to each ecological feature that poses a constraint/potential constraint to development in accordance with the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) guidelines (IEEM, 2006), where sufficient baseline data are available to do so. Where no value has been assigned, this is due to insufficient information.

3.7 An assessment of likely ecological impacts has been undertaken in accordance with CIEEM guidelines (IEEM, 2006) only where clear evidence is available to substantiate and justify the findings. In the absence of such evidence, the ecological feature is merely identified as a potential constraint to development.

1 D = Dominant, A = Abundant, F = Frequent, O = Occasional, R = Rare

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

Discussion and Recommendations

3.8 Where ecological constraints to development are identified, further survey requirements and/or avoidance, mitigation, compensation measures that are proportionate to the predicted degree of risk to biodiversity and to the nature and scale of the proposed development are described. In addition, in accordance with the NPPF, opportunities to enhance or create benefits for wildlife are explored alongside the hierarchy of aforementioned measures.

3.9 In addition, as this report is to provide an updated baseline in support of an amendment to the existing planning permission, an assessment has been made as to the change in the ecological baseline. Where changes have been identified, appropriate mitigation to address these changes has been provided.

Nomenclature

3.10 The English names of flora and fauna species are given in the main text of this report. Scientific names are used only in the absence of English names. Vascular plants and Charophytes follow the nomenclature of The Botanical Society for the British Isles database (2007) with all other flora and fauna following the National Biodiversity Network (NBN) Gateway (NBN, 2015).

Limitations

3.11 The results of the survey and assessment work undertaken by Keystone Ecology are representative at the time of surveying.

3.12 This document does not contain a comprehensive list of botanical species on site. Only plant species characteristic of each habitat and incidental observations of notable plant species were recorded. In addition, many plant species are only evident at certain times of the year and so some plant species may have gone undetected.

3.13 The data held by consultees may not be exhaustive. The absence of records does not necessarily indicate absence of a species/habitat from an area but rather that these have not been recorded or are perhaps under-recorded within the search area.

3.14 The accuracy of data held by consultees varies due to the quality and scale that they were digitised to, the supporting information used to define locations/boundaries and also sensitivity of the data itself. Keystone Ecology cannot take responsibility for the accuracy of external data sources and as such discrepancies and inaccuracies may occur.

3.15 NBRC do not hold information on important hedgerows, veteran trees or ancient woodland less than 2 hectares in size. No information was received from Corby Borough Council (CBC) regarding TPOs or Conservation Areas at the time of writing.

3.16 Unless otherwise stated survey grid references have been recorded using a hand-held GPS receiver (Garmin GPS map 60CSX) with a manufacturer’s stated accuracy of 3 - 5 metres when not in tree canopy, steep terrain or other enclosed environments.

Habitats Identified on Site

4.2 The following habitats were identified on site during the course of the field survey (the distribution of these habitats is shown in Drawing Number: 131773/4/dwg2).

 Hardstanding;

 Ephemeral/Short Perennial;

 Poor Semi-Improved Grassland;

 Scattered Scrub;

 Scrub;

 Tall Ruderal; and

 Line of Trees

Hardstanding

4.3 A network of tarmac roads is present across the survey area, as the site is an extension of a large car forecourt to the west. In between the roads, large areas of gravel are present in the areas where cars are parked. No vegetation is associated with these areas.

4.4 There has been no change in the extent or condition of the hardstanding since the 2013 Ecological Appraisal.

Ephemeral/Short Perennial

4.5 The loose gravel/stone areas in between the tarmac roads support a very sparse ephemeral/short perennial community. This habitat is dominated by Chickweed and moss spp., with occasional Daisy, Hawkweed spp., Scentless Mayweed, Colt’s Foot, Yorkshire Fog, Cock’s Foot and rarely Herb Robert, Groundsel and Fescue sp.

4.6 This habitat also extends onto the spoil heap demarcating the eastern boundary of the site and along the periphery of the poor semi-improved grassland along the northern boundary, which is colonised by additional species including occasional Rosebay Willowherb, Bristly Ox- tongue, Mugwort, Common Nettle, Cleavers, Curled Dock and Creeping Thistle, with White Dead-nettle, Creeping Buttercup, Greater Stitchwort and Ox-eye Daisy occurring rarely. Through time, the habitat associated with the spoil heap on the eastern boundary is considered likely to develop further into tall ruderal.

4.7 There has been an extension to the extent of this habitat as compared with the 2013 Ecological Appraisal as a consequence of the colonisation of spoil along the northern and eastern boundaries of the development site. The species composition has, however, remained broadly similar.

13

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

Poor Semi-improved Grassland

4.8 A strip of this habitat comprising an area approximately 150 x 5 metres is present in the north of the survey area, running parallel to the metal boundary fence. The habitat is located on a bank and grades into ephemeral/short perennial habitat along its length where the substrate becomes rubble adjacent to the tarmac hardstanding road.

4.9 The dense sward is dominated by grass species including abundant Perennial Rye Grass, Yorkshire Fog, Cock’s Foot and Common Bent, interspersed with frequent Common Vetch, Bristly Ox-tongue, Colt’s Foot and Ribwort Plantain, and locally frequent Ox-eye Daisy, Common Nettle, Mare’s Tail and Meadow Vetchling. Creeping Cinquefoil (locally abundant towards the eastern end of the strip), Hogweed, Field Forget-me-knot, Greater Stitchwort, White Dead-nettle, Creeping Buttercup and Curled Dock, occur occasionally throughout the sward, with Foxglove, Grass Vetchling, Hedgerow Cranesbill, Columbine, Comfrey sp. occurring rarely.

4.10 The extent and condition of the habitat is unchanged since the 2013 survey, although the presence of Soft Shield Fern was not reported during the 2015 survey.

Scattered Scrub/Scrub

4.11 A small area (2 x 3 metres) of this habitat is present towards the southern corner of the eastern boundary of the site. Vegetation comprises occasional immature Hawthorn, Ash and Willow spp. saplings. Ground flora is dominated by Cleavers, with frequent Yorkshire Fog, Bramble, Dog Rose and Common Nettle.

4.12 Scattered scrub also occurs throughout the poor semi-improved grassland sward, dominated by Bramble, Dog Rose and Snowberry, with occasional Ash, Silver Birch, Hawthorn, Willow spp. and Hazel saplings. A number of semi-mature standard trees are also present within this habitat, dominated by Willow spp.

Tall Ruderal

4.13 Within the eastern corner of the northern boundary of the site is a patch of developing tall ruderal vegetation, dominated by Cleavers, Rosebay Willowherb, Bristly Ox-tongue, Ragwort, Curled Dock and Common Nettle. Occasional immature Willow spp., Ash, Hazel and Hawthorn saplings also occur.

Line of Trees

4.14 Running parallel with the eastern boundary of the site is a tree line (approximately 70 x 10 metres. Frequently occurring species comprise Ash, Beech and Larch. Willow sp. is occasionally present with Silver Birch occurring rarely. The understorey vegetation comprises abundant Hawthorn. Ground flora comprises abundant Common Nettle, Bramble, Yorkshire Fog and Hawthorn saplings. Rosebay Willowherb is occasionally present. There are small areas of bare ground with a large brash pile present at the southern end of the strip.

14

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

EBP and Local BAP Habitats, and Networks of these Habitats Identified on Site

4.15 None of the habitats present on site qualify as EBP or local BAP habitats.

Protected Species

4.16 The possibility that protected species will pose a constraint to the proposed development is evaluated for each of the main protected species/groups in Table 2, based on assessment of habitat suitability and other relevant factors, such as:

 National distribution of each species/group;

 Previous records of species occurrence obtained through the desk study (mapped on Drawing Number: 131773/4/dwg1 as appropriate);

 Connectivity to suitable habitats in the surrounding landscape;

 Field signs (e.g. tracks, droppings, direct sightings) suggesting presence of species within or near to the site; and

 Probability of the proposed development having an adverse impact on the species/group if present.

EBP and Local BAP Species

4.17 The possibility that EBP or local BAP species will pose a constraint to the proposed development is evaluated in Table 3 using the same evaluation criteria as Table 2. Given the large number of EBP and local BAP species, these have only been included in the table if present in the desk study records and/or observed on site during the field survey.

4.18 There are no records of EBP or local BAP species within 0.5 kilometres of the site.

Contribution to the Wider Green Infrastructure Resource

4.19 Although the site itself is located within an existing industrial estate, running parallel to the northern boundary is the Willow Brook. The brook runs through a matrix of grassland, scrub and woodland habitats which provide opportunities for a diverse range of species including Badger, Fallow Deer and breeding birds. This area of semi-natural habitat extends to the west and is constrained to the north and east by the Corby Northern Orbital Road currently being constructed and the Rockingham Speedway. The site forms part of the Nene Valley Nature Improvement Area (NIA), which covers an area of 41,000 hectares through the centre of Northamptonshire and overlaps the site. Including the River Nene and 5 of its tributaries, it is centred on the Upper Nene Valley Gravel Pits Special Protection Area (SPA), designated for wintering wildfowl. The Nene Valley supports a vast diversity of species in a variety of habitats including reservoirs, wildflower meadows, wet woodland, grazing marshes and urban areas. The NIA seeks to deliver a net gain in biodiversity by 2020 through growth and development, improving the ecological status of the river, enhancing the ecological service provision and enhancing public awareness and benefits of the area in a sustainable way. The land immediately adjacent to the site is listed as a proposed LWS. Development at this site is

15

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

considered to incur significant adverse effects on the wider green infrastructure resource in the absence of mitigation in view of the potential for indirect impacts associated with increased lighting and noise and decreased air quality.

Invasive Species

4.20 There are no records of invasive species within 0.5 kilometres of the site and none were identified during the field survey.

5.0 Relevant Legislation and Policy

Legislation

5.1 This section sets out the wildlife legislation and policy relevant (or potentially relevant pending further survey) to the proposed development based on the findings of the desk study and field survey. Please note that this legal information is a summary and intended for general guidance only. The original legal documents should be consulted for definitive information. Web addresses providing access to the full text of these documents are given in the References section.

5.2 The legislation protection afforded to sites/habitats and species that could be affected by the proposed development is detailed in Table 4 and Table 5 respectively.

Table 4: Legislation Protection Afforded to Sites/Habitats that could Potentially be Affected by the Proposed Development

Designated Site/Habitat Legal Status

SSSI (Sites of Special Scientific SSSIs are the national suite of sites providing statutory protection Interest) for the best examples of the UK's flora, fauna, or geological or physiographical features. Originally notified under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, SSSIs have been renotified under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended). Improved provisions for the protection and management of SSSIs were introduced by the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000.

LNR (Local Nature Reserves) Under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, LNRs may be declared for nature conservation by local authorities after consultation with the relevant statutory nature conservation agency. Legal protection of LNRs is provided under The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended).

Table 5: Legislation Protection Afforded to Species that could Potentially be Affected by the Proposed Development

Species Legal Status

European Protected

Bats These animal species and their breeding sites or resting places are protected under Regulation 41 of the Conservation of Habitats and Species (Amendment) Regulations 2012, which makes it illegal to: Deliberately capture, injure or kill any such animal or to deliberately take or destroy their eggs; Deliberately disturb2 such an animal;

2 Under the Conservation Regulations, disturbance of protected animals includes in particular any disturbance which is likely to: (i) impair their ability to survive, breed or reproduce, or to rear or nurture their young or to hibernate or migrate; (ii) significantly affect the local distribution or abundance of the species in question.

24

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

Species Legal Status Damage or destroy a breeding site or resting place of such an animal. European Protected Species (EPS) licences can be granted by Natural England in respect of development to permit activities that would otherwise be unlawful under the Conservation Regulations, providing that the following 3 tests (set out in the EC Habitats Directive) are passed:  The development is for reasons of overriding public interest;  There is no satisfactory alternative; and  The favourable conservation status of the species concerned will be maintained and/or enhanced. Under Regulation 9(5) of the Conservation Regulations, Planning Authorities have a legal duty to ‘have regard to the requirements of the EC Habitats Directive in the exercise of their functions’. This means that they must consider the above 3 tests when determining whether Planning Permission should be granted for developments likely to cause an offence under the Conservation Regulations. As a consequence, Planning Applications for such developments must demonstrate that the 3 tests will be passed.

Nationally Protected

Bats These animals receive full protection under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended by the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000), which makes it illegal (subject to exceptions) to: Intentionally kill, injure or take any such animal; Intentionally or recklessly damage, destroy or obstruct any place used for shelter or protection by any such animal; Intentionally or recklessly disturb such animals while they occupy a place used for shelter or protection.

Adder, Common Lizard, These animals receive limited protection under The Wildlife and Grass Snake, Slow-worm, Countryside Act 1981 (as amended by the Countryside and Rights of White-clawed Crayfish Way Act 2000), which makes it illegal to intentionally kill or injure any such animal.

Nesting Birds (general) All wild birds are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended by the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000), which makes it illegal (subject to exceptions) to: Intentionally kill, injure or take any wild bird; Take, damage or destroy the nest (whilst being built or in use) or eggs of any wild bird.

Badgers The Protection of Badgers Act 1992 makes it illegal to wilfully kill or injure a Badger, or attempt to do so and also make it illegal to intentionally or recklessly interfere with a Badger sett. This includes damaging or destroying a sett, obstructing access to a sett and disturbing a Badger while it is occupying a sett. Licences can be granted to permit sett closure and/or disturbance between July and November inclusive.

Species Legal Status

Wild Mammals The Wild Mammals (Protection) Act 1996 makes it illegal to mutilate, kick, beat, nail, or otherwise impale, stab, burn, stone, drown, crush, drag or asphyxiate any wild mammal with intent to inflict unnecessary suffering.

5.3 Section 40 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006 (the NERC Act) places a legal duty on public bodies, including planning authorities, to ‘have regard’ to the conservation of biodiversity when carrying out their normal functions, which includes consideration of planning applications.

5.4 In compliance with Section 41 of the NERC Act, the Secretary of State has published a list of species and habitats considered to be of principal importance for conserving biodiversity in England under the UK Post-2010 Biodiversity Framework. This is known as the list of EBP, of which there are 56 habitats and 943 species (Natural England, 2014). The EBP list is used to guide planning authorities in implementing their duty under the NERC Act.

National Planning Policy

5.5 The NPPF set out the Government’s planning policies for England and how these are expected to be applied. At the heart of the NPPF is a presumption in favour of sustainable development. This presumption does not apply where development requiring Appropriate Assessment under the Birds or Habitats Directives is being considered, planned or determined.

5.6 The NPPF states that:

‘When determining planning applications, local planning authorities should aim to conserve and enhance biodiversity by applying the following principles:

 If significant harm resulting from a development cannot be avoided (through locating on an alternative site with less harmful impacts), adequately mitigated, or, as a last resort, compensated for, then planning permission should be refused;

 Proposed development on land within or outside a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) likely to have an adverse effect on a SSSI (either individually or in combination with other developments) should not normally be permitted. Where an adverse effect on the site’s notified special interest features is likely, an exception should only be made where the benefits of the development, at this site, clearly outweigh both the impacts that it is likely to have on the features of the site that make it of special scientific interest and any broader impacts on the national network of SSSIs;

 Development proposals where the primary objective is to conserve or enhance biodiversity should be permitted;

 Opportunities to incorporate biodiversity in and around developments should be encouraged;

26

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

 Planning permission should be refused for development resulting in the loss or deterioration of irreplaceable habitats, including ancient woodland and the loss of aged or veteran trees found outside ancient woodland, unless the need for, and benefits of, the development in that location clearly outweigh the loss; and

 The following wildlife sites should be given the same protection as European sites: potential Special Protection Areas (SPA) and possible Special Areas of Conservation (SAC); listed or proposed Ramsar sites; and sites identified, or required, as compensatory measures for adverse effects on European sites, potential SPAs, possible SACs, and listed or proposed Ramsar sites.’

5.7 Under the NPPF, the Planning Authority has a responsibility to promote the preservation, restoration and re-creation of priority habitats, ecological networks and the protection and recovery of priority species populations, linked to national and local targets, and identify suitable indicators for monitoring biodiversity in the plan.

5.8 Also under the NPPF the planning system should contribute to and enhance the natural and local environment by minimising impacts on biodiversity and providing net gains in biodiversity where possible, contributing to the Government’s commitment to halt the overall decline in biodiversity, including by establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures.

Regional Planning Policy

5.9 The Northamptonshire Minerals and Waste Development Framework (MWDF) (REF) sets out the spatial planning strategy for minerals and waste and related development across the county. Following the vision, objectives, spatial strategy and policies in the Northamptonshire Core Strategy Development Plan Document (DPD), policies to address the principle of minerals and waste related development are set out in the Control and Management of Development DPD. In this regard, Objective 10 (Conserving and enhancing Northampton’s built and natural environment) of the Core Strategy includes provision for safeguarding the natural environment as follows:

‘Recognise Northamptonshire’s environmental systems and landscape linkages in order to conserve and enhance the built and natural environment through ensuring sensitive working, and where necessary, high standards of mitigation of potentially adverse impacts of minerals and waste development.’

5.10 Policy CS14 (Addressing the impact of proposed minerals and waste development) further sets out the requirement to take account of impacts on the natural environment as follows:

‘Proposals for minerals and waste development must demonstrate that the following matters have been addressed:

 Minimising environmental impact and protecting Northamptonshire’s key environmental designations;

 Protecting natural resources or ensuring that any unavoidable loss or reduction is mitigated;

27

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

 Ensuring built development is of a design and layout that has regard to its visual appearance in the context of the defining characteristics of the local area;

 Ensuring access is sustainable, safe and environmentally acceptable; and

 Ensuring that local amenity is protected.’

5.11 Within the MWDF Control and Management of Development DPD, Policy CMD7 (Natural Assets and Resources) is of direct relevance to biodiversity as follows:

‘Minerals and waste development should seek to (where possible) achieve a net gain in assets and resources, through:

 Delivery of wider environmental benefits in the vicinity where development would adversely affect any regional or locally designated sites or other features of local interest;

 Protecting and enhancing green infrastructure and strategic biodiversity networks, in particular the River Nene and other sub-regional corridors; and

 Consider opportunities to contribute towards Northamptonshire Biodiversity Action Plan targets for habitats and species.

Proposals for minerals and waste development will be required to undertake an assessment (where appropriate) in order to:

 Identify and determine the nature, extent, and level of importance of the natural assets and resources, as well as any potential impacts; and

 Identify mitigation measures and / or requirement for compensation (where necessary) to avoid, reduce, and manage potentially adverse impacts.’

5.12 The document further states that:

‘Consideration should be given to how the site can contribute to the county’s identified green infrastructure networks, BAP targets, and the Environmental Characterisation Assessments (ECA). Proposals must also demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between the county’s geological and natural assets, in particular the importance of underlying geological conditions on the local ecology in relation to the ability of the site to support specific vegetative communities and associated habitat.’

Local Planning Policy

5.13 The ‘ Core Spatial Strategy’ (NNCSS) was adopted in June 2008 covering the period to 2021. The NNCSS is the framework for the individual district/borough councils to develop Site Specific Plans.

5.14 The NNCSS (2008) sets out the following relevant policies:

 Policy 5 - Green Infrastructure: “A net gain in green infrastructure will be sought through the protection and enhancement of assets and the creation of new multi-

28

functional areas of green space that promote ... biodiversity, water management, the protection and enhancement of local landscape, mitigation of climate change along with green economic uses and sustainable land management”.

6.0 Discussion and Recommendations

Changes to the Baseline

6.1 The ecological appraisal demonstrates no significant change to the baseline ecological conditions as submitted in support of 13/00079/WASTEFUL. No significant changes to the recommendations are, therefore, presented. Additional survey efforts carried out at the time of this Ecological Appraisal have scoped out Water Vole and Otter as potential constraints.

6.2 The previous baseline assessment, however, noted the presence of Sphagnum spp. and Soft Shield Fern, neither of which were present during the 2015 survey. It is considered that both species may be present occasionally within the site, but that they are both at the limit of their nitrogen tolerance. In this regard, information submitted as part of the planning process in 2014 stated that:

‘Where the predicted nitrogen deposition levels are likely to exceed critical levels, the current baseline figures greatly exceed critical baseline levels, indicating that the 2 plant species are already likely to be at their limit of nitrogen tolerance. ‘

6.3 These species are not considered to be constraints to the development of the site.

Overview of Potential Ecological Constraints Associated with the Proposed Development

6.4 In the absence of mitigation, the following have been identified as potential constraints to the proposed development:

 Non-Statutory Sites; (Nene Valley NIA and pLWS);

 EBP Habitat - Deciduous Woodland;

 White Clawed Crayfish;

 Badger;

 Bats;

 Breeding Birds;

 GCN; and

 Reptiles.

Further Survey and Mitigation

6.5 To comply with guidance set out in Section 10.2 and Annex D.4.5 of BS42020:2013, a Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) and a formal Landscape and Ecological Management Plan (LEMP) should be produced prior to the commencement of all site clearance works.

30

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

6.6 For each constraint identified, all mitigation options provided follow the established Mitigation Hierarchy as set out in Section 5.2 of BS42020:2013. This seeks as a preference to avoid impacts then to mitigate unavoidable impacts, and, as a last resort, to compensate for unavoidable residual impacts that remain after avoidance and mitigation measures.

Non-Statutory Sites (Nene Valley NIA, pLWS), EBP Habitat (Deciduous Woodland) and White-Clawed Crayfish

6.7 The proposed development will be contained within the hardstanding/sparse ephemeral/short perennial that makes up the vast majority of the site, therefore, the integrity of the non- statutory sites or the Willow Brook will not be directly affected. However, it is recommended that temporary hoarding be positioned at the boundaries of the site (at the edge of the hardstanding) to ensure the protection of sensitive ecological receptors during construction operations. The hoarding will take account of the need to protect the tree line to be retained by at least a 5 metre buffer zone (wider as determined by an arboriculturist in accordance with BS5837:2012) throughout the construction phase.

6.8 During both the construction and operational phases, methods of working should comply with The Environment Agency Pollution Prevention Guidelines 13 and 54 to render potential impacts from sediment/pollution discharge upon the non-statutory sites and Willow Brook as Negligible.

6.9 To ensure that the margins of the site and suitable habitat on adjacent land retain their potential attractiveness for commuting and foraging bats, a sensitive lighting regime is recommended, whereby these habitats are not continually lit throughout the hours of darkness.

6.10 To minimise air pollution and avoid deposition of dust, the following measures should be introduced during construction:

 Turn off engines/machinery when not moving/in use;

 Wash wheels of all vehicles leaving site;

 Avoid access routes that pass by ancient woodland sites; and

 Avoid storage of spoil in locations where dust can drift on to adjacent woodland.

Badger

6.11 Whilst it is considered highly unlikely that this species will be directly affected by the proposed works as all active setts are located in excess of 30 metres from the boundary of the development site, the possibility of Badger foraging within the retained habitats remains. Measures as set out above in relation to the installation of hoarding to prevent access to the construction zone will avoid the accidental injury of these animals. In addition, a sensitive

31

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

lighting scheme will serve to avoid impacts on the integrity of the adjacent habitats as a foraging resource for Badger.

Bats

6.12 To ensure that the margins of the site and suitable habitat on adjacent land retain their potential attractiveness for commuting and foraging bats, a sensitive lighting regime is recommended, whereby these habitats are not continually lit throughout the hours of darkness. Whilst the site is currently subject to lighting, lighting impacts the adjacent woodland/grassland matrix associated with the pLWS for biodiversity (including bats) will be avoided through the adoption of low lumen, directional lighting wherever possible. This should be adopted during both the construction and operational phases of the development.

Breeding Birds

6.13 As a precaution, it is recommended that temporary protective fencing be positioned at the boundary of the poor semi-improved grassland and line of trees that lie adjacent to the hardstanding as a measure to prevent accidental disturbance of active nests during construction works. Although it is understood that no suitable habitat for this group is to be cleared, should this be the case then the following approach must be adopted and all habitat re-instated upon completion of the construction phase.

6.14 Suitable bird nesting habitat should be cleared from September to February, outside of the bird nesting season. As timing constraints associated with other protected species (i.e. reptiles) will also need to be taken into consideration, it may be necessary to clear suitable bird nesting habitat between March and August. In this instance, a suitably qualified ecologist should survey habitat immediately prior to its removal. If an active nest is present, at least a 5 metre radius buffer area (or wider as appropriate and dependent upon the species identified) should be set out, or the vegetation retained until any young have fledged. To prevent contractors accidentally straying into the buffer area, these should be clearly marked out i.e. with high visibility fencing.

6.15 To compensate for the temporary loss of suitable bird nesting habitat, any vegetation removed will be replanted upon the completion of works. This will include replacement of the tree line with native species such as Hawthorn, Blackthorn, Hazel, Wild Privet and Dogwood which provide cover (and foraging sources) for a range of common bird species (Gilbert and Anderson, 1998) and the replanting of the semi-improved grassland with native species currently characteristic of the site.

Great Crested Newt

6.16 Whilst it is considered that the risk of encountering this species is low (particularly in view of the measures in place to restrict movement of this species during the construction of the Corby Northern Orbital road, a precautionary approach is recommended. The hardstanding is not considered to provide suitable habitat for this species, therefore, coupled with the low risk of encountering GCN, the erection of protective fencing positioned at the boundary of the retained habitats is not considered to result in a barrier to the movement of these animals. Installation of this fencing will serve to avoid the accidental killing/injury of GCN during the construction phase.

32

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

6.17 Although it is understood that no suitable habitat for this group is to be cleared, should this be the case then the following approach must be adopted and all habitat re-instated upon completion of the construction phase.

6.18 Any clearance of suitable habitat should be carried out following a Precautionary Working Method Statement (PWMS) (Keystone Ecology, 2014).

Reptiles

6.19 As a precaution, it is recommended that temporary protective fencing be positioned at the boundary of the poor semi-improved grassland and line of trees that lie adjacent to the hardstanding as a measure to prevent accidental killing/injury of reptiles during construction works. Although it is understood that no suitable habitat for this group is to be cleared, should this be the case then the following approach must be adopted and all habitat re-instated upon completion of the construction phase.

6.20 It is normally recommended that a Reptile Survey be undertaken to determine the presence or likely absence of reptile species. In this instance, however, due to the small extent of suitable habitat likely to support these species i.e. field/rail edges only, the abundance of suitable habitat in the wider area, and the small number of reptiles that could be expected; it is recommended that any suitable reptile habitat clearance is carried out in an ecologically sensitive manner. This should be undertaken by an ecological contractor or under the direct supervision of a qualified ecologist. Specifically, habitats should be strimmed carefully using hand tools in 2 passes (first to a height of no less than 300 millimetres) from the centre of the site out to its edges, to flush any reptile species into adjacent habitats of the site. Any log piles or other refugia should also be carefully dismantled by hand. This approach can only be undertaken between April and November (when temperatures are not below 10oC) when reptiles are active. It is not appropriate for use between December and March, when reptiles are in hibernation.

6.21 To compensate for the temporary disturbance of potential reptile habitat, any vegetation removed will be replanted and grassland areas re-seeded upon the completion of works. Informal hibernacula (i.e. brash piles) will also be created if the existing brash pile is to be removed.

Summary of Residual Impacts

6.22 Provided the measures as set pout above are implemented, no residual impacts are considered likely as a consequence of the amended development proposals.

Opportunities for Biodiversity Enhancement

6.23 In accordance with national and local planning policy (NPPF and CMD7), opportunities for biodiversity enhancement (above and beyond those required to mitigate for the identified impacts) are set out below.

6.24 Whilst the proposed development will not encroach onto the poor semi-improved/line of trees habitats, the following recommendations are designed to enhance the biodiversity of the site, and its immediate surrounds:

33

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

 Leave the poor semi-improved grassland as a set-aside area to encourage growth, creating a tussocky sward that would become attractive to a range of invertebrates, whilst providing a natural refuge for reptiles and GCN, nesting habitat for birds and foraging for Badger and bats;

 Ideally, even where a short “neat” sward is required within landscaped areas, provision can be made for some taller and less intensively managed grassland to develop, especially at the interface between lawns and tree and shrub planting;

 Where practical, sourcing of plants will be in accordance with the principles of Flora Locale, which is a conservation initiative centred on sourcing plants and seed of verifiable British provenance. Plug planting of selected herbs into pre-established grassland is also an option that will be explored;

 The grassland should be considered for pockets of taller seed-bearing plants, especially common teasel, which provides visual interest in terms of texture, as well as being of biodiversity interest, providing hollow stems for invertebrate hibernation sites and a valuable winter food source to seed-eating bird species such as goldfinches;

 Planting a native species hedgerow between the proposed development and the retained habitats, to act as a natural screen and provide additional opportunities for foraging, commuting and nesting species. The proposed hedgerow will run adjacent to the proposed landscaping areas and will, therefore, be bordered by areas of rough grassland, creating a gradual transition from areas of amenity grassland. This aims to ensure the functionality of the site as part of the wider green infrastructure network. The grassland and line of trees/scrub will also be supplemented by native species (ideally of local provenance) to further increase the biodiversity value from both a structural and functional perspective and to improve the overall quality of the habitats. A full list of recommended species will be provided in the LEMP. In addition, the poor semi-improved grassland will be left as a set-aside to promote further growth and encourage diversity. This habitat will be subject to an ecologically sensitive management regime, i.e. mowing at appropriate times of year (late summer) and all arisings removed from the area, to prevent the accumulation of nutrients. Within the set aside grassland, several semi-natural refugia (log and brash piles) will be positioned to act as potentially suitable hibernacula for GCN, invertebrates and reptiles that may be present in the area;

 It is recommended that the drainage pond proposed in the east of the site is enhanced. It is recommended that the banks are landscaped to incorporate native marginal vegetation with additional planting of native emergent vegetation. This would provide a suitable foraging site for bats, reptiles and amphibians, whilst potentially creating a breeding site for the latter group. The full details of the management for the drainage pond in the east of the site will be fully detailed within a LEMP. At this stage, it is recommended that the proposed pond is designed to maximise the potential opportunities for biodiversity and should include scalloped edges and shallow marshy shelves where possible to encourage a range of aquatic vegetation. A variable water depth is recommended to ensure that areas of unfrozen water remain throughout the winter and provide suitable areas for invertebrates and breeding amphibians in the spring and summer. Planting a range of native submerged and emergent native aquatic plant species would contribute to a diverse vegetation structure. The final

34

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Ecological Appraisal

layout indicates that the pond is to be situated within an area proposed for landscaping. The surrounding landscaped areas will, therefore, consist of rough/wet grassland, with wildflower meadow seed mixes added for aesthetic and invertebrate benefit rather than simply as areas of amenity grassland. This will ensure that the functionality of the site as part of the wider green infrastructure network is enhanced;

 Artificial hibernacula for reptiles and GCN could be positioned within the site boundary habitats; and

 Vegetation should be allowed to grow unmanaged around the perimeters of the 4 tanks proposed to be positioned in the north of the site. This would provide suitable habitat for a range of invertebrates, whilst providing a foraging resource for a range of protected species and natural refugia for reptiles and GCN.

1.0 Introduction

Background

1.1 Keystone Ecology was instructed by Entran to undertake a Badger Survey of land off Sookholme Road, Shirebrook, Nottinghamshire (central ordnance survey grid reference SK 545 665). The survey was required in support of a detailed planning application for the construction of a 7 megawatt Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Farm and associated infrastructure.

1.2 An Ecological Appraisal of the site undertaken in 2015 (Keystone Ecology, 2015) identified the potential for sett building habitat directly adjacent to the proposed development site, associated with the Willow Brook (identified as a proposed Local Wildlife Site pLWS)). In addition, the presence of Badgers within the immediate vicinity of the site was raised by the Northamptonshire Wildlife Trust during the consultation phase for the original planning application. Although Badger was not considered to be a constraint to the proposed development at that time, these animals can expand rapidly into new areas. A formal Badger Survey was, therefore, recommended.

Aims and Objectives

1.3 The aim of the Badger Survey was to:

 Determine whether there are any Badger setts, or other evidence of Badger on or within 30 metres (access permitting) of the site;

 Identify likely impacts of the development on Badgers;

 Recommend measures to avoid or reduce impacts on Badgers; and

 Advise on any requirement to attain a licence from Natural England to proceed with the works.

Site Characteristics

1.4 The development site is located along the eastern perimeter of the Willowbrook East Industrial Estate and comprises a large car forecourt with thin strips of grassland, scrub and trees present along the site boundary.

1.5 Two further large car forecourts lie west of the site with numerous steel clad industrial units located to the south. Rockingham race track lies approximately 350 metres to the north of the site, with an area of mosaic of scrub, bare ground and deciduous woodland in between. The Willow Brook runs through the woodland to the north, parallel to the site.

Legislation, Planning Context and Status1

Protection Legislation

1.6 Badgers are listed in Schedule 6 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981). As such they receive protection under Section 11 of this Act, which prohibits the use of self-locking snares, bows, explosives or use of live mammals or birds as decoys, for capture and killing of any wild animal. It also prohibits the use of traps, snares, nets, poisons, electrical devices, dazzling devices, and automatic weapons, night shooting devices, gas or smoke for killing, injuring or taking animals listed on Schedule 6.

1.7 The Protection of Badgers Act (1992) makes it an offence to:

 wilfully kill, injure, take, possess or cruelly ill-treat a Badger

 attempt to do the above

 intentionally or recklessly interfere with a sett

1.8 A sett is classified as any structure that displays signs indicating current use by a Badger (Natural England, 2007). The Act does not define ‘current use’. However Natural England (2009a) has issued an advice note on the interpretation of ‘current use’ as follows:

 Displaying signs indicating current use is NOT synonymous with current occupation i.e. Badger need not be occupying the sett every day for the sett to display signs of current use;

 A Badger sett is protected by the legislation if it “displays signs indicating current use by a Badger”. A sett is therefore protected as long as such signs remain present. In practice, this could potentially be for a period of several weeks after the last actual occupation of the sett by a Badger or Badgers;

 Demonstration of the fact that a sett is not occupied by Badgers does NOT necessarily exempt it from the protection afforded by the Act if it still displays signs otherwise indicative of current use;

 A sett is likely to fall outside the definition of a sett in the Act if the evidence available indicates that it is NOT in use by Badgers; e.g. absence of Badger field signs, debris in sett entrances etc. In practice, such a sett may have been unused for several weeks.

1.9 Sett interference includes damaging or destroying a sett, obstructing access to a sett, and disturbing a Badger whilst it is occupying a sett. It is not illegal, and therefore a licence is not required, to carry out activities in the vicinity of a sett if no Badger is disturbed and the sett is not damaged or obstructed.

1 Please note that this legal information is a summary and intended for general guidance only. The original legal documents should be consulted for definitive information. Web addresses providing access to the full text of these documents are given in the References section.

2

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Confidential Badger Survey

1.10 The Act does not define ‘disturbance’. Natural England has issued an advice note on the interpretation of ‘Disturbance’ in relation to Badgers occupying a sett (Natural England, 2009b). Within this guidance, Natural England define disturbance to a Badger sett as:

‘..more than limited noise or activity near a sett at levels which Badgers commonly tolerate, without apparently being disturbed’

1.11 It is Natural England’s view that Badgers are relatively tolerant of moderate levels of noise and/or activity around their setts and that:

‘...low or moderate levels of apparent disturbance at or near to Badger setts do not necessarily disturb the Badgers occupying those setts’.

1.12 Examples of activities at or near setts that Natural England do not consider likely to cause disturbance to Badgers, and therefore would not normally expect to require a licence, include:

 Development, or other activities occurring close to Badger setts (use of hand tools and/or machinery), where there is no reason to believe that the ‘disturbance’ will be greater than that which Badgers commonly tolerate, and therefore any Badger(s) occupying the sett are unlikely to be disturbed;

 Vegetation removal (including felling small trees or shrubs) over or adjacent to setts (using hand tools and/or machinery);

 Clearing out of ditches/watercourses using machinery and/or hand tools where Badger setts are present.

1.13 Natural England requires a judgment to be made on a case by case basis as to whether a particular action may or may not cause disturbance to Badgers.

1.14 Where interference with a sett showing signs of current use cannot be avoided during the development, a licence is required from Natural England, which permits activities that would otherwise be illegal. Natural England will generally only issues licenses to permit activities during the period 1st July to 30th November as this avoids the Badgers’ breeding period. Natural England will only issue a licence after detailed planning permission has been granted, where applicable, so that there is no conflict with the planning process.

Protection Afforded by the Planning System

1.15 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) sets out government policy regarding consideration of biodiversity in planning decisions. Under the NPPF the presence of a protected species is a material consideration when a planning authority is considering a development proposal that, if carried out, would be likely to result in harm to the species or its habitat.

1.16 The NPPF states that:

‘When determining planning applications, local planning authorities should aim to conserve and enhance biodiversity by applying the following principles:

3

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Confidential Badger Survey

 if significant harm resulting from a development cannot be avoided (through locating on an alternative site with less harmful impacts), adequately mitigated, or, as a last resort, compensated for, then planning permission should be refused;

 proposed development on land within or outside a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) likely to have an adverse effect on a SSSI (either individually or in combination with other developments) should not normally be permitted. Where an adverse effect on the site’s notified special interest features is likely, an exception should only be made where the benefits of the development, at this site, clearly outweigh both the impacts that it is likely to have on the features of the site that make it of special scientific interest and any broader impacts on the national network of SSSIs;

 development proposals where the primary objective is to conserve or enhance biodiversity should be permitted;

 opportunities to incorporate biodiversity in and around developments should be encouraged;

 the following wildlife sites should be given the same protection as European sites: potential Special Protection Areas (SPA) and possible Special Areas of Conservation (SAC); listed or proposed Ramsar sites; and sites identified, or required, as compensatory measures for adverse effects on European sites, potential SPAs, possible SACs, and listed or proposed Ramsar sites.’

1.17 Under Section 40 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act 2006 public bodies, including Local and Regional Planning Authorities have a duty to ‘have regard’ to the conservation of biodiversity in England when carrying out their normal functions, which includes consideration of planning applications. In compliance with Section 41 of the Act, the Secretary of State has published a list of species considered to be of principal importance for conserving biodiversity in England under the UK Post-2010 Biodiversity Framework. This is known as the list of England Biodiversity Priority (EBP), of which there are 56 habitats and 943 species (Natural England, 2013). The EBP list is used to guide planning authorities in implementing their duty under the NERC Act.

1.18 Badger is not an EBP species.

1.19 Badger is a Local BAP Priority Species for Northamptonshire (Northamptonshire Biodiversity Partnership, 2008).

2.0 Methodology

Desk Study

2.1 As part of the Ecological Appraisal, information from Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre (NBRC)/ was received, and Natural England site designations accessed, on 4th June 2015. Information obtained was used to provide a background on ecological features in the vicinity of the site.

Field Survey and Assessment

2.2 A thorough search of the site and all suitable habitats immediately adjacent incorporating at least a 30 metres radius of the boundary of the development site, was undertaken for signs of Badger activity in accordance with current guidance (Harris et al., 1989). This involved a search for the presence of setts, foraging activity and associated field signs such as latrines, dung pits, prints and tracks. The location of any setts was mapped, including the number of entrances and signs of use such as bedding material, fresh spoil and hairs were recorded. Additionally, significant evidence of Badger activity was mapped (i.e. territory latrines and runs connecting setts).

2.3 Any sett entrances were plotted using a Global Positioning System (GPS) unit. Additionally, sett entrance positions were measured with a tape measure from the nearest landscape feature (i.e. tree or base of hedgerow), to help improve the accuracy of their location.

2.4 Where relevant, Fox and Rabbit excavations have also been recorded.

2.5 The survey was undertaken on 27th May 2015 by Dr Sarah Jackson (CEcol, CEnv, MCIEEM), Head of Ecology at Keystone Ecology, trained in the identification of Badger field signs and who satisfies all necessary field survey competencies as stipulated by the Chartered Institute for Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM). Weather conditions during the survey were: 16°C, dry with 50% cloud cover. Sett entrances are shown on Drawing Number: 131773/5/dwg1

2.6 Setts and sett entrances have been classified according to the definitions given in Appendix 1. The extent of the setts underground has not been mapped as this could extend in any direction up to at least 20 metres.

Nomenclature

2.7 The English names of flora and fauna species are given in the main text of this report. Scientific names are used only in the absence of English names. Vascular plants and Charophytes follow the nomenclature of The Botanical Society for the British Isles database (2007) with all other flora and fauna following the National Biodiversity Network (NBN) Gateway (NBN, 2015).

5

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Confidential Badger Survey

Limitations

2.8 Keystone Ecology staff and their sub-consultants endeavour to identify the presence of protected species wherever possible on site, where this falls within the agreed scope of works.

2.9 The results of the survey and assessment work undertaken by Keystone Ecology are representative at the time of surveying.

2.10 Up to date standard methodologies are used, which are accepted by Natural England and other statutory conservation bodies. No responsibility will be accepted where these methodologies fail to identify all species on site. Keystone Ecology cannot take responsibility where Government, national bodies or industry subsequently modify standards.

2.11 Sett entrances have been recorded using a hand-held GPS receiver (Garmin GPS map 60CSX) with a manufacturer’s stated accuracy of 3-5 metres when not in tree canopy, steep terrain or other enclosed environments.

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Confidential Badger Survey

4.0 Impacts

4.1 None of the identified Badger setts are located within 30 metres of the development site and no impacts as a consequence of the proposed modifications to 13/00079/WASTEFUL. The site contains limited foraging habitat only for this species along the poor semi-improved grassland and line of trees running along the northern perimeter of the development site. There is no direct access to the Willow Brook or the enclosed woodland pLWS from the site for Badger due to the metal boundary fence. No adverse direct impacts on the favourable conservation status of the local Badger population are, therefore, predicted.

4.2 In the absence of mitigation, additional noise and lighting in place during the construction phase could result in adverse impacts on the functionality of the adjacent habitats for Badger. Given the high levels of lighting and activity levels already in place at the site, impacts are considered minor adverse and temporary during the construction phase only.

11

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Confidential Badger Survey

5.0 Recommendations and Requirements

Further Survey

5.1 Further survey would be necessary if works were delayed for 1 year or more. During any intervening period and the commencement of works on site, it is recommended that setts are re-surveyed so that their current status remains known and to inform an assessment of impacts.

Licensing and Planning

5.2 No licence is required from Natural England as no active Badger setts will be impacted by the development, including the proposed amendment to 13/00079/WASTEFUL.

Mitigation

5.3 All mitigation options provided follow the established Mitigation Hierarchy as set out in Section 5.2 of the British Standard on Biodiversity (BS42020:2013). This seeks as a preference to avoid impacts then to mitigate unavoidable impacts, and, as a last resort, ttheo compensate for unavoidable residual impacts that remain after avoidance and mitigation measures. To comply with guidance set out in Section 10.2 and Annex D.4.5 of BS42020:2013, a Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) should be produced prior to the commencement of all site clearance works.

5.4 The proposed development will be contained within the hardstanding/sparse ephemeral/short perennial that makes up the vast majority of the site, therefore, the integrity of the Badger population within the adjacent pLWS will not be directly affected. However, it is recommended that temporary hoarding be positioned at the boundaries of the site (at the edge of the hardstanding) to ensure the protection of sensitive ecological receptors during construction operations and to reduce light and noise spill into the adjacent semi-natural habitats. In addition, no works must be undertaken during the hours of darkness.

5.5 To ensure that the margins of the site and suitable habitat on adjacent land retain their potential attractiveness for Badger, a sensitive lighting regime is recommended, whereby these habitats are not continually lit throughout the hours of darkness. Any security lighting should also be directional (i.e. away from the Willow Brook) and on sensors/timers where possible.

Appendix 1 Badger Sett Assessment Criteria

Information sourced from Harris et al. (1989) and Neal & Cheeseman (1996).

Sett Status

Main setts - These are the most frequently used and appear to be large, well-established, often extensive and with large spoil heaps outside the entrances. Main setts are typically associated with an obvious network of paths leading to, from and around the entrances. There is generally only one main sett per social group of Badgers where the average number of entrances is 15.

Annexe setts - Regularly used, though not necessarily all of the time, with several entrances, annexe setts are smaller than the main sett and occur in close association with it (usually within 150 metres). They are normally linked to the main sett by clear well-used paths and consist of 6 entrance holes on average.

Subsidiary setts - These are further away from the main sett (50 metres or more) and typically comprise of 5 entrance holes on average. They are not continuously active, with no obvious path connecting them to the main sett. For this reason their ‘ownership’ can often only be determined by bait-marking.

Outlying setts - Sporadically used with few holes, outlying setts can be found anywhere within the territory and usually have small spoil heaps, indicating that they are not very extensive underground. There are no obvious paths connecting them to other setts and Foxes or Rabbits may colonise them when not in use by Badger.

Single hole setts are normally included in this category as well. These are also generally in sporadic use by Badgers and often exhibit few field signs to demonstrate evidence of Badger activity. Some may be occupied by a breeding female and Foxes may take over the hole when not in use by Badgers.

Entrance Status

The size, status and level of activity of each sett can be assessed by counting the number of entrance holes. The degree of use of each entrance hole can be classified as follows:

 Well-used holes - clear of any debris or vegetation and are obviously in regular use. There may be evidence of regular excavation or fresh footprints.

 Well-used holes with bedding - same as above but with bedding material present.

 Partially-used holes - not in regular use and with debris such as leaves and twigs in the entrance, or have moss and/or other plants growing in or around the entrance. To make use of the hole again, a minimum amount of clearance would be required.

Shelton Road, Corby June 2015 Confidential Badger Survey

 Disused holes - have not been in use for some time, are partially or completely blocked, and would require considerable clearance before they could be used. Long- disused holes may simply be a depression in the ground together with the remains of a spoil heap, which may be covered in moss or plants.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 1 Where relevant, please include a copy of an extract from the public sewer map

Answer A copy of an extract of the public sewer map is included, showing the public sewers, disposal mains and lateral drains in the vicinity of the property.

Informative Public Sewers are defined as those for which the Sewerage Undertaker holds statutory responsibility under the Water Industry Act 1991. Anglian Water Services Limited is not generally responsible for rivers, watercourses, ponds, culverts or highway drains. If any of these are shown on the copy extract they are shown for information only. An extract from the public sewer map is enclosed. This will show known public sewers in the vicinity of the property and it should be possible to estimate the likely length and route of any private drains and/or sewers connecting the property to the public sewerage system. Assets other than public sewers may be shown on the copy extract for information.

Question 2 Where relevant, please include a copy of an extract from the map of waterworks

Answer A copy of an extract of the map of waterworks is included, showing water mains, resource mains or discharge pipes in the vicinity of the property.

Informative The map of the waterworks has been supplied by: Anglian Water Services Limited PO Box 770 Lincoln LN5 7WX Tel: 08457 145 145 www.anglianwater.co.uk The 'water mains' in this context are those which are vested in and maintainable by the water company under statute. Assets other than public water mains may be shown on the plan, for information only. Water companies are not responsible for private supply pipes connecting the property to the public water main and do not hold details of these. These may pass through land outside of the control of the seller, or may be shared with adjacent properties. The buyer may wish to investigate whether separate rights or easements are needed for their inspection, repair or renewal, please refer to Question 23. The enclosed extract of the public water main record shows known public water mains in the vicinity of the property. It should be possible to estimate the likely length and route of any private water supply pipe connecting the property to the public water network.

Question 3 Does foul water from the property drain to a public sewer?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that drainage proposals are checked with the developer.

Informative Anglian Water Services Limited is not responsible for any private drains and sewers that connect the property to the public sewerage system, and does not hold details of these. The property owner will normally have sole responsibility for private drains serving the property. If foul water does not drain to the public sewerage system the property may have private facilities in the form of a cesspit, septic tank or other type of treatment plant. An extract from the public sewer map is enclosed. This will show known public sewers in the vicinity of the property and it should be possible to estimate the likely length and route of any private drains and/or sewers connecting the property to the public sewerage system.

Question 4 Does surface water from the property drain to a public sewer?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that drainage proposals are checked with the developer.

Informative Anglian Water Services Limited is not responsible for private drains and sewers that connect the property to the public sewerage system, and do not hold details of these. The property owner will normally have sole responsibility for private drains serving the property. If on inspection the buyer finds that the property is not connected for surface water drainage, the property may be eligible for a rebate of the surface water drainage charge. Details can be obtained from the company tel: 0800 169 3271. If surface water does not drain to the public sewerage system the property may have private facilities in the form of a soakaway or private connection to a watercourse.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 5 Is a surface water drainage charge payable?

Answer Records confirm that a surface water drainage charge is not payable for the property.

Informative Where surface water from a property does not drain to the public sewerage system no surface water drainage charges are payable. Where surface water charges are payable but upon inspection the property owners believe that surface water does not drain to the public sewerage system, application can be made to the water company to end surface water charges (freephone 0800 169 3271 for more details).

Question 6 Does the public sewer map indicate any public sewer, disposal main or lateral drain within the boundaries of the property?

Answer The public sewer map included indicates that there are no public sewers, disposal mains or lateral drains within the boundaries of the property. However, on 1 October 2011, private sewers that serve a single property and lie outside the boundary of that property, were transferred into public ownership. Therefore there may be additional public sewers, disposal mains or lateral drains which are not recorded on the public sewer map but which may prevent or restrict development of the property.

Informative The boundary of the property has been determined by reference to the Ordnance Survey record. The presence of a public sewer running within the boundary may restrict further development. Anglian Water has a statutory right of access to carry out work on its assets, subject to notice. This may result in employees of the company or its contractors needing to enter the property to carry out work. Sewers indicated on the extract of the public sewer map as being subject to an agreement under Section 104 of the Water Industry Act 1991 are not an 'as constructed' record. It is recommended that these details are checked with the developer, if any.

Question 7 Does the public sewer map indicate any public sewer within 30.48 metres (100 feet) of any buildings within the property?

Answer The public sewer map indicates that there are no public sewers within 30.48 metres (100 feet) of a building within the property. However, it has not always been a requirement for such public sewers to be recorded on the public sewer map. It is therefore possible for unidentified sewers or public sewers to exist within the boundaries of the property. However, on 1 October 2011 private sewers were transfered into public ownership, therefore there may be additional lateral drains and/or public sewers which are not recorded on the public sewer map but are also within 30.48 metres (100 feet) of a building within the property.

Informative The measure is estimated from the Ordnance Survey record, between any building within the boundary of the property and the nearest public sewer. Sewers indicated on the extract of the public sewer map as being subject to an agreement under Section 104 of the Water Industry Act 1991 are not an 'as constructed' record. It is recommended that these details are checked with the developer.

Question 8 Are any sewers or lateral drains serving or which are proposed to serve the property the subject of an existing adoption agreement or an application for such an agreement?

Answer Records confirm that sewers serving the development, of which the property forms part, are not the subject of an existing adoption agreement or an application for such an agreement.

Informative This enquiry is of interest to purchasers of new properties who will want to know whether or not the property will be linked to a public sewer. Where the property is part of a very recent or ongoing development and the sewers are not the subject of an adoption application, buyers should consult with the developer to ascertain the extent of public drains and sewers for which they will hold maintenance and renewal liabilities.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 9 Has a Sewerage Undertaker approved or been consulted about any plans to erect a building or extension on the property over or in the vicinity of a public sewer, disposal main or drain?

Answer The company's records confirm that there is not a statutory agreement or consent in respect of building over/near a public sewer at this property. For historical reasons the company may not be aware of some agreements or consents which have been entered into by the local authority. Whilst an 'agreement' may not exist, current Building Regulation guidance permits building over/near sewers in certain circumstances. Consent without an agreement may have been issued by Anglian Water or independently by the Building Control Body. As long as the extension has a valid building regulations certificate then this should prove adequate assurance to the purchaser.

Informative Anglian Water Services Limited is obliged to maintain its sewers. If any problem were to arise, Anglian Water Services Limited would investigate the problem and has a statutory right of access to carry out work on its assets, subject to notice. This may result in employees of the company or its contractors needing to enter the property. In advance of any problem it is difficult to predict the effect the works would have on the property. Similarly, the position as to liability of both the property owner and Anglian Water Services Limited would need to be ascertained. On 1 October 2011 private sewers were transfered into public ownership, therefore there may be additional public sewers, disposal mains or lateral drains which are not recorded on the public sewer map but which may further prevent or restrict development of the property.

Question 10 Is any building within the property at risk of internal flooding due to overloaded public sewers?

Answer The property is not recorded as being at risk of internal flooding due to overloaded public sewers. On 1 October 2011 private sewers, disposal mains and lateral drains were transferred into public ownership. It is therefore possible that a property may be at risk of internal flooding due to an overloaded public sewer which Anglian Water may not be aware of. For further information it is recommended that enquiries are made of the vendor as to any previous flooding occurances.

Informative A sewer is "overloaded" when the flow from a storm is unable to pass through it due to a permanent problem (eg. Flat gradient, small diameter). Flooding as a result of temporary problems such as blockage, siltation, collapses, and equipment or operational failures are excluded. "Internal flooding" from public sewers is defined as flooding which enters a building or passes below a suspended floor. For reporting purposes, buildings are restricted to those normally occupied and used for residential, public, commercial, business or industrial purposes. "At Risk" properties are those that the water company is required to include in the Regulatory Register that is reported annually to the Director General of Water Services. These are defined as properties that have suffered, or are likely to suffer, internal flooding from public foul, combined or surface water sewers due to overloading of the sewerage system more frequently than the relevant reference period (either once or twice in ten years) as determined by the Company's reporting procedure. Flooding as a result of storm events proven to be exceptional and beyond the reference period of one in ten years are not included on the At Risk register. Properties may be at risk of flooding but not included on the Register where flooding incidents have not been reported to the company. Public sewers are defined as those for which the company holds statutory responsibility under the Water Industry Act 1991. It should be noted that flooding can occur from private sewers and drains which are not the responsibility of Anglian Water Services Limited. This report excluded flooding from private sewers and drains and Anglian Water Services Limited makes no comment upon this matter.

Question 11 Please state the distance from the property to the nearest boundary of the nearest sewage treatment works

Answer The nearest sewage treatment works is 1.65 kilometres to the South of the property. The name of the sewage treatment works is CORBY STW (Anglian Water Services Ltd).

Informative The nearest sewage treatment works will not always be the sewage treatment works serving the catchment within which the property is situated. The Sewerage Undertaker's records were inspected to determine the nearest sewage treatment works. It should be noted, therefore, that there may be a private sewage treatment works closer than the one detailed above that has not been identified.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 12 Is the property connected to mains water supply?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that the water supply proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 13 Are there any water mains, resource mains or discharge pipes within the boundaries of the property?

Answer The map of waterworks does not indicate any water mains, resource mains or discharge pipes within the boundaries of the property.

Informative The boundary of the property has been determined by reference to the Ordnance Survey record.

Question 14 Is any water main or service pipe serving, or which is proposed to serve the property, the subject of an existing adoption agreement or an application for such an agreement?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that water supply proposals are checked with the developer.

Informative This enquiry is of interest to purchasers of properties who will want to know whether or not the property will be linked to the mains water supply.

Question 15 Is the property at risk of receiving low water pressure or flow?

Answer Records confirm that the property is not recorded on a register kept by the water undertaker as being at risk of receiving low water pressure or flow.

Informative "Low water pressure" means water pressure below the regulatory reference level which is the minimum pressure when demand on the system is not abnormal. Water Companies are required to include in the Regulatory Register that is reported annually to the Director General of Water Services properties receiving pressure below the reference level, provided that allowable exclusions do not apply. (i.e. events which can cause pressure to temporarily fall below the reference level). The reference level of service is a flow of 9 litres/minute at a pressure of 10 metres head on the customer's side of the main stop tap (mst). The reference level of service must be applied on the customer's side of a meter or any other company fittings that are on the customer's side of the main stop tap. The reference level applies to a single property. Where more than one property is served by a common service pipe, the flow assumed in the reference level must be appropriately increased to take account of the total number of properties served.For two properties, a flow of 18 litres/minute at a pressure of 10 metres head on the customers' side of the mst is appropriate. For three or more properties the appropriate flow should be calculated from the standard loadings provided in BS6700 or Institute of Plumbing handbook. Allowable exclusions: The Company is required to include in the Regulatory Register properties receiving pressure below the reference level, provided that allowable exclusions listed below do not apply. Abnormal demand: This exclusion is intended to cover abnormal peaks in demand and not the daily, weekly or monthly peaks in demand which are normally expected. Water Undertakers should exclude from the reported DG2 figures, properties which are affected by low pressure only on those days with the highest peak demands. During the report year companies may exclude, for each property, up to five days of low pressure caused by peak demand. Planned maintenance: Water Undertakers should not report under DG2 low pressures caused by planned maintenance. It is not intended that water undertakers identify the number of properties affected in each instance. However, water undertakers must maintain sufficiently accurate records to verify that low pressure incidents that are excluded from DG2 because of planned maintenance are actually caused by maintenance. One-off incidents: This exclusion covers a number of causes of low pressure: mains bursts; failures of company equipment (such as PRVs or booster pumps); firefighting; and action by a third party. However, if problems of this type affect a property frequently, they cannot be classed as one-off events and further investigation will be required before they can be excluded. Low pressure incident of a short duration: Properties affected by low pressure which only occur for a short period, and for which there is evidence that incidents of a longer duration would not occur during the course of the year, may be excluded from the reported DG2 figures.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 16 Please include details of a water quality analysis made by the water undertaker for the water supply zone in respect of the most recent calendar year

Answer The analysis records confirmed that tests failed to meet the standards of the 2000 regulations or the 2001 Regulations in relation to another substance or substances, and these are 1 test of 932 taken from Wing water treatment works failed to meet the standard for clostridium. Although investigations did not identify the cause, the drinking water supply remained safe to drink. Also, 4 tests of 13 taken from Morcott water treatment works failed to meet the standard for metaldehyde, 5 tests of 25 taken from Wing water treatment works failed to meet the standard for metaldehyde and 1 test of 672 taken from Morcott water treatment works failed to meet the standard for clostridium. The exceedances were caused by elevated pesticide levels in the raw water supplying Morcott and Wing water treatment works. We are working with a wide range of other agencies, including the agricultural community, on ways in which levels of metaldehyde can be reduced in the environment. There is no risk to health.

Informative Anglian Water investigates all infringements of drinking water quality standards thoroughly and takes appropriate corrective actions to resolve any problems. If there was any risk to public health from the quality of drinking water supplied, the Company would inform customers immediately, advise them not to drink the water until the risk had been removed and would take appropriate steps to advise and protect their customers. The information provided above is based on a full calendar year. For more up to date and detailed information please see the water quality report provided at the back of this search. You can also visit www.anglianwater.co.uk, or telephone 0845 0709109 or write to Geodesys, PO Box 485, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, PE29 6YB. Water companies have a duty to provide wholesome water that meets the standards of the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2000. Water quality is normally tested at the tap used for domestic consumption, usually the kitchen. However, the owner/occupier is responsible for any deterioration in water quality that is a result of the supply pipe and the plumbing within the property and results in the standards not being met. In England and Wales these regulations implement the requirements of the European Drinking Directive 98/83/EC. The 2000 Regulations impose standards for a range of parameters, which are either health based to ensure the water is safe to drink or ensure the water is aesthetically acceptable. They also require that drinking water should not contain any element, organism or substance (whether or not a parameter) at a concentration or value which would be detrimental to public health. If there are concerns that lead pipes within the property may be causing high levels of lead in your drinking water please contact your water company for further advice (Telephone Anglian Water Customer Services on: 08457 145 145). The water company undertakes a monitoring programme to establish water quality that includes random sampling from properties. It will notify the consumers of any failures to meet the water quality standards that are due to the condition or maintenance of the supply pipe and the plumbing within the property. Samples are taken from a random selection of addresses within a water supply zone and the results of these samples represent the zonal performance. Water Quality zones are allowed to have a population equivalent of up to 86,000 and can cover large geographical areas. There is only a small possibility that the results of samples reported were taken from the property in question. The data collected by the company is subject to external review by the drinking water inspectorate (DWI) and by local and health authorities. In addition to reviewing quality data the DWI also carry out audits during which any area of the company's operations can be examined.

Question 17 Please include details of any departures, authorised by the Secretary of State under Part 6 of the 2000 Regulations from the provisions of Part 3 of those Regulations.

Answer There are no such authorised departures for the water supply zone.

Informative Authorised departures are not permitted if the extent of the departure from the standard is likely to constitute a potential danger to human health. Please contact your water company if you require further information.

Question 18 Please include details of the location of any water meter serving the property

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or recently built property. It is recommended that the charging proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 19 Who are the sewerage and water undertakers for the area?

Answer Anglian Water Services Limited, PO Box 770, Lincoln, LN5 7WX, Tel: 08457 145 145, www.anglianwater.co.uk is the sewerage undertaker for the area and Anglian Water Services Limited, PO Box 770, Lincoln, LN5 7WX, Tel: 08457 145 145, www.anglianwater.co.uk is the water undertaker for the area.

Question 20 Who bills the property for sewerage services?

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that the charging proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 21 Who bills the property for water services?

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that the charging proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 22 What is the current basis for charging for sewerage and water services at the property?

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or a recently built property.

Informative Water and sewerage companies full charges are set out in their charge schemes which are available from the company free of charge upon request. Unless we consider it impracticable to fit a Meter, we will require a Meter to be fitted to our specification to measure the volume of water supplied for charging purposes to all Non-Household premises or to any other premises where the principal use of the premises is not as a person's home. (For the purposes of assessing whether the principal use of the premises is otherwise than as a person's home account will be taken of whether a business is registered for V.A.T. purposes at the premises.) Non-Household Customers will be charged for fitting a Meter. Non-Household Measured Tariffs will automatically apply and be fixed in respect of all Non-Household Premises to which a Meter has been fitted to our specification to measure the volume of water supplied for charging purposes. Otherwise, the Unmeasured Tariffs will apply. Mixed use premises are premises used partly as a person's house or dwelling and partly for business purposes, eg. a supply serving both a farmhouse occupied as a sole or principal dwelling and a farm; or, a shop and a flat occupied as a sole or principal dwelling. If the principal use of the premises is for business purposes, measured charges will apply as if the whole of the premises were Non-Household premises. If the principal use of the premises is as a person's sole or principal dwelling, measured charges will apply when fixed in accordance with our Meter policy for Household Customers. Otherwise, Customers will be charged unmeasured tariffs. Occupiers of Mixed Use Premises may choose whether the premises are charged under Household Charges or Non-Household Charges. Choosing to pay Non-Household Charges will not affect your statutory rights if you are occupying the premises as your home or as your sole or principal dwelling, but may otherwise affect your entitlement, eg. for a leakage rebate. If at a later date separate supplies are provided to separate parts of the premises, those parts will be charged according to their use, ie. Household or Non-Household.

Question 23 Is there any easement giving Anglian Water the right of access to defined assets located within the boundary of the property?

Answer Records indicate that the property is not subject to such an agreement.

Informative This question relates to private agreements between Anglian Water acting in a private capacity and a landowner. Such contracts may often be part of a conveyance or land transfer, or a deed of grant of easement. If there is no formal easement, then a sewer or water main may have been constructed following the service of notice under the provisions of the Public Health Act 1936, Water Act 1945, Water Act 1989 or Water Industry Act 1991 as applicable. The company does not hold copies of these notices. However, in the absence of evidence to the contrary there is a legal presumption that all matters were properly dealt with. All rights and obligations relating to sewers and water mains are now covered by the Water Industry Act 1991. Where rights exist at the boundary of the property, but we are not sure of the exact correlation, we will answer 'yes' to this question. A documentary right can exist even if the physical asset itself has not yet been laid, or has been moved, or removed. Likewise the position of the right and of the asset may differ. You may also find that an asset is protected both with contractual rights and statutory rights. Please consult your solicitor as to why this may happen, and its effects. We refer to 'defined' assets for the following reasons: Often a contract may give Anglian Water an expressed right to install and maintain assets within an area but without stating the exact position or route of such assets. Also, the law may imply rights where none have been mentioned specifically in a related contract, such as a conveyance. Finally, rights may come into being through long use. In any of these cases the rights are undefined, and although Anglian Water may need to rely on them from time to time, as we cannot map the rights accurately, we will answer 'no' to this question. Information obtainable from physical inspection (including Trial Bore Holes) overides information contained in the report. Any error in answering this question is not to be regarded as a waiver of Anglian Water's rights or title, or an agreement or representation that Anglian Water is prepared to vary or discharge any of its rights or title.

As a general rule, easement widths are as follows:

Pipe Diameter Width or Strip Up to 149mm 4.5m 150 - 449mm 6.0m 450 - 749mm 9.0m 750 and above 12.0m

Question 24 Are there any trade effluent consents relating to this site/property

Answer Records indicate that there are no trade effluent consents relating to this site/property.

Informative The Trade effluent consent applies to premises in the vicinity of the premises the subject of this search, but it is for the applicant to satisfy itself as to the suitability of the consent for its client's requirements. If, in the case of any trade premises, any trade effluent is discharged without such consent or other authorisation, the occupier of the premises shall be guilty of an offence. The occupier of any trade premises in the area of Anglian Water Services Limited may only discharge any trade effluent proceeding from those premises into Anglian Water Services Limited's sewers if he does so with Anglian Water Services Limited's consent. Please note any existing consent is dependant on the business being carried out at the property and will not transfer automatically upon change of ownership. For further information, including copies of consent, please contact Anglian Water, Water Quality and Environmental Performance Department, Environmental Standards Team, Anglian House, Ambury Road South, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, PE29 3NZ or telephone 01480 323971.

Title: B965132-1 Drinking Water Quality Report for the Desborough Public Water Supply Zone

Report period: January 2012 to December 2012 Your drinking water supply Anglian Water’s region is divided into 158 water supply areas called Public Water Supply Zones, each providing our customers with an excellent drinking water supply. We carry out around 146,000 tests each year on drinking water samples taken from customer taps. The number of drinking water samples we take, and the tests we carry out, are specified in the current Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations and our regulator, the Drinking Water Inspectorate, carry out regular audits to make sure we comply with these regulations.

During the period of this report, all samples taken in this Public Water Supply Zone fully met all the legal limits specified in the current Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations, except for one sample taken from Wing water treatment works which did not meet the legal limit for Clostridia perfringens. Although investigations did not identify the cause, the drinking water supply remained safe to drink. Also, samples taken from Morcott and Wing water treatment works did not meet the legal limit for the pesticide metaldehyde. The exceedances were caused by elevated pesticide levels in the raw water supplying Morcott and Wing water treatment works. We are working with a wide range of other agencies, including the agricultural community, on ways in which levels of metaldehyde can be reduced in the environment. There is no risk to health.

Source: Your drinking water supply comes from a surface water source (either river or reservoir).

Hardness: Your drinking water supply is classified as hard. We've included the following information to help you set your domestic appliances, the hardness has been shown in different units below:

Calcium (mg/l) Calcium carbonate (mg/l) Degrees Clark (°C) Degrees French (°f) Degrees German (°dH) millimoles (mmol/l of Ca) 106 265 18.444 26.5 15.052 2.65

(mg/l = milligrammes per litre or the same as parts per million)

Fluoride: We don’t add fluoride to your drinking water supply, but there is naturally occurring fluoride present in all drinking water supplies.

Chlorine: Disinfection is important to ensure there are no harmful organisms in the water. We use chlorine to disinfect drinking water supplies. We also add a small amount of ammonia in this process, so your drinking water supply is chloraminated.

Lead: If you live in a house built before 1970, you may have lead pipework. If you think you may have lead pipework, call our Lead Advice Line on 0845 070 3445 to arrange for a free lead test.

Work in your area: To make sure the quality of the drinking water we supply remains excellent, we sometimes need to carry out work to ensure we continue to meet the legal limits specified in the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2000 (as amended). This work is known as a Programme of Work. Our Regulator, the Drinking Water Inspectorate closely monitors the progress of this work and will formally sign it off when it is completed.

1 INTRODUCTION

Background

1.1 Entran Ltd has been commissioned by Clean Power Properties Ltd to carry out a Flood Risk Assessment (FRA) for a proposed development within the Willowbrook East Industrial Estate, Shelton Road, Corby, Northamptonshire, NN17 5XH.

1.2 This FRA has been prepared in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), associated Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) and Environment Agency (EA) standing advice on flood risk for new development.

Site Location

1.3 The Site is situated within the northern area of the Willowbrook East Industrial Estate and is currently occupied by a network of tarmac roads and gravel parking spaces, with some soft landscaping adjacent to the Willow Brook North Arm. The Site covers an area of approximately 2.5 hectares (ha) at an approximate National Grid Reference of SP 90990 90880, as shown in Figure 1.1.

1.4 The Site is located approximately 2.2 km north-east of Corby Town Centre in a predominantly light industrial area. Industrial units are located to the south and south-east with an open vehicle storage area located to the west. Located immediately to the north of the Site is the Willow Brook North Arm within a small wooded area and the Rockingham Motor Speedway located further to the north-east. Vehicular access to the Site can be gained from Shelton Road to the east.

1.5 Further details on Site topography, hydrology and sources of flood risk are set out in Section 2.

Proposed Development

1.6 The Proposed Development is a bespoke Energy Recovery Centre that has been designed to recover all available resources from mixed solid waste feedstocks. The Proposed Development provides a single treatment facility for solid wastes which would otherwise be destined for landfill or mass-burn incineration. The provisional Site layout is provided in Appendix A.

Requirements for a Flood Risk Assessment

1.7 The requirements for FRA are provided in the NPPF and associated PPG, which came into effect in March 2012 and March 2014, respectively. This policy states that flood risk is a material consideration that must be taken into account when considering all planning applications. In addition, the requirements of the EA and the local Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) should be considered.

1.8 Paragraph 103 of the NPPF requires that a site-specific FRA should be submitted with planning applications for all sites greater than 1 hectare (ha) in Flood Zone 1 or for sites of any size within Flood Zones 2 or 3.

1.9 Flood Zone 1 is defined as land with little or no flood risk (an annual probability of flooding of less than 0.1%); Flood Zone 2 is defined as having a medium flood risk (an annual probability of between 0.1% and 0.5% for tidal areas and 0.1% and 1.0% for rivers); and Flood Zone 3 is defined as high risk (with an annual probability of flooding of greater than 0.5% for tidal areas and greater than 1.0% for rivers).

1.10 The FRA is required to describe and assess all flood risks (from rivers, the sea, sewers and groundwater) to and from the development and demonstrate how they will be managed, including an evaluation of climate change effects.

1.11 Guidance on the content of FRAs is contained in the NPPF PPG: Flood Risk and Coastal Change (March 2014) and associated EA standing advice1. These documents have been consulted with regard to the acceptability of the development proposals described in this FRA.

2 BASELINE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

Topography and Land Use

2.1 The Site is currently occupied by a network of tarmac roads and gravel parking spaces, with some soft landscaping adjacent to the Willow Brook North Arm. The existing Site levels generally vary between 106.92 metres Above Ordnance Datum (mAOD) and 104.58 mAOD with a gentle downwards slope in a south-easterly direction; a topographic survey plan of the Site is included in Appendix B (Babtie Site Validation Report, March 2002).

Hydrology

2.2 There are three ‘main’ rivers2 that flow within 2 km of the Site; these are the Willow Brook North Arm, Gretton Brook and Willow Brook South Arm. The Willow Brook North Arm is located immediately adjacent to the Site and flows in a west to east direction. Gretton Brook is located approximately 815 m to the north-west and the Willow Brook South Arm is located approximately 1.8 km to the south-east.

2.3 There are several flood storage reservoirs (FSR) and balancing ponds located on the Willow Brook North Arm upstream of the Site. Further information on these has been identified in the Corby Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) – Stage 2 and are provided below:

 Stanier Road FSR, online reservoir with approximately 645 m3 of storage;  Pen Green FSR, offline reservoir with approximately 15,500 m3 of storage;  Pen Green Lane Balancing Pond, offline reservoir with approximately 4,000 m3 of storage; and  Phoenix Parkway FSR, online reservoir with approximately 10,000 m3 of storage.

2.4 There are two pond areas indentified on the OS mapping approximately 110 m to the north- west of the site, these are disused British Steel Corporation sludge beds and play no role in flood storage. Recent aerial imagery of this area identifies it as being well vegetated.

Flood Zone Classification

2.5 The EA’s current detailed flood map (Figure 2.1) shows that the Site lies within Flood Zone 1 (low risk). Land in this flood zone is predicted to flood with an annual probability of less than 0.1% from rivers and the sea.

2 Main river is defined by the EA as any watercourse that contributes significantly to the hydrology of a catchment.

3

Historic Flooding

2.6 The British Hydrological Society database3 of historical flood events has been reviewed for records of flooding in the area and no specific data has been found for the Site.

2.7 In addition, the Corby SFRA Stage 2 (Faber Maunsell, August 2006) has been reviewed and no records of historical flooding have been reported for the Site or adjacent areas as a result of river, sewer or groundwater flooding.

Geology and Hydrogeology

2.8 According to the BGS Geology of Britain Viewer, the Site is directly underlain by Northampton Sand Formation bedrock consisting of Ooidal Ironstone. No superficial deposits have been recorded.

2.9 The Babtie Site Remediation Report (March 2002) (refer to Appendix B) indentifies that there are limited remains of the Northampton Sand Formation aquifer due to previous mining activities at the Site. This is overlain by reworked boulder clay up to a depth of 19 m which has a low permeability and does not drain well. Test results have indicated that there is a low potential for the vertical migration of compounds into any underlying water-bearing strata due to the reworked fill preventing lateral and vertical migration. Natural groundwater levels are within or below the remaining Northampton Sand Formation with limited perched groundwater existing in the infill. This is contaminated where present in areas previously used as sludge lagoons.

3 EXTERNAL FLOOD RISK

Flooding Mechanisms

3.1 As discussed in Section 2, the detailed flood map (Figure 2.1) shows that the Site lies within Flood Zone 1 (low risk). The EA Flood Zones are based on undefended scenarios, i.e. without the benefit of any flood defences.

3.2 Based on a review of the Corby SFRA, no other recorded sources of flooding, i.e. from sewers, groundwater or reservoir, have been identified for the Site.

Flood Levels

3.3 Flood levels for the Willow Brook North Arm located adjacent to the north of the Site were acquired from the EA for a variety of probability events; these were taken from the Willow Book Model (April 2007) and are provided in Table 3.1 below (refer to Appendix C).

WBN5087 491051 290970 94.42 94.55 94.71 95.22 95.52

3.4 There are no formal flood defences for the Willow Brook North Arm, with the natural channel providing nominal protection against a 1% annual probability event. The channel is maintained by the EA and is regularly inspected.

3.5 To the north of the Site, topographic levels are set at approximately 105.08 mAOD to the north-east and 107.82 mAOD to the north-west. Topographic levels therefore provide the Site with a freeboard of approximately 9.21 m above the 0.1% annual probability event. There is also a 1.5 m high landscape bund located between the Site and the Willow Brook North Arm.

5

The Sequential Test

3.6 As set out in the NPPF, the aim of the Sequential Test is to steer new development to areas with the lowest probability of flooding. As the Site has been shown to be located in Flood Zone 1, it is not necessary to apply the Sequential Test to the proposal, in accordance with the NPPF.

Safe Access and Egress

3.7 The Site and surrounding area to the east, south and west is within Flood Zone 1 and, therefore, provides continual safe access and egress.

Land Use Vulnerability

3.8 Table 2 of the NPPF PPG sets out a schedule of land uses based on their vulnerability or sensitivity to flooding. The Proposed Development is classified as ‘less vulnerable’ to flooding as set out in Table 2. Referring to Table 3 of the NPPF PPG, ‘less vulnerable’ land uses are considered appropriate within Flood Zone 1 without the need for the Exception Test.

4 DRAINAGE ASSESSMENT

Introduction

4.1 The NPPF states that those proposing development are responsible for drainage designs which reduce flood risk to the development and elsewhere, preferably through the use of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDS).

4.2 Surface water arising from a developed site should, as far as is practicable, be managed to mimic the surface water flows arising from the site prior to the proposed development while reducing the flood risk to the site itself and elsewhere.

4.3 The ‘North Northamptonshire Core Spatial Strategy’ (NNCSS) was adopted in June 2008 and sets out the following relevant policy:

 Policy 13 – General Sustainable Development Principles: subsection ‘Protect Assets’ (Q) – “development should not cause a risk to (and where possible enhance) the quality of the underlying groundwater or surface water, or increase the risk of flooding on the site or elsewhere, and where possible incorporate Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDS) and lead to a reduction in flood risk”

4.4 Previous Site remediation works have been completed that affect the surface water drainage system. The current drainage arrangements are as follows (extract from Card Geotechnics, pers comm., January 2010) (Appendix D):

“As part of the remediation works undertaken when the site was redeveloped for its current use, the site was re-graded to facilitate surface water run-off into a dedicated drainage system passing through an oil interceptor to the mains surface water sewer.

The remediation works also included capping of the site with a geotextile and 100 mm thick granular drainage layer (to prevent infiltration), linked to the surface water drainage system, under a 500 mm Type 1 surface capping layer.”

4.5 It is anticipated that these capping layers will remain for the Proposed Development thereby rendering the Site as 100% impermeable both pre-and post-development.

7

Runoff Rates for Existing Land Use

4.6 Runoff rates for the existing Site have been calculated using the Modified Rational Method as described by the Wallingford Procedure. Flood Estimation Handbook (FEH) modelling software has been used to generate statistical data on rainfall events for a range of specified return periods, as follows:

 FEH to establish rainfall depths for a range of return periods and catchment descriptors such as annual average rainfall;

 the Wallingford Procedure to determine values for soil index (SOIL) and urban catchment wetness index (UCWI); a soil index value of 0.45 and a UCWI value of 55 have been determined for the Site;

 the Modified Rational Method to calculate storm run-off volumes for each return period;

 a developable area of 2.5 ha with the percentage impermeable surface as 100% for the existing Site; and

 peak discharges for a default 30 minute critical storm were determined from storm volumes using the standard hydrograph approach.

4.7 The resulting runoff rates for a range of return periods are presented in Table 4.1.

4.8 All Site runoff is currently directed to the dedicated drainage system passing through an oil interceptor to the mains surface water sewer. It has been identified that the mains surface water sewer is located on Shelton Road, adjacent to the eastern boundary of the Site (refer to Appendix E). The mains surface water sewer discharges to the Willow Brook North Arm to the north of the Site.

Runoff Rates for Proposed Development

4.9 Runoff rates for the proposed development have been calculated using the same procedure as for the existing Site and using the same parameters, with the percentage impermeable surface area also remaining at 100%. This is assuming that the impermeable drainage layers associated with the previous development of the Site are not removed.

4.10 The resulting runoff rates for a range of return periods are presented in Table 4.2.

Table 4.2: Post-Development Site Runoff Rates.

Modified Rational Method Calculations Return Period (yrs) 3 30 min Rainfall (mm) Storm Volume (m ) Peak Flow (l/s)

100 + CC 53.0 1340.1 745.1

4.11 To account for the predicted increases in rainfall intensities as a result of climate change, the 100 year runoff rate and volume have been increased by 20% in accordance with Table 2 of the NPPF PPG (i.e. an expected operational lifetime of 60 years). This produces a climate change corrected peak runoff rate of 745.1 l/s for the critical 100 year storm and a total storm volume of 1340.1 m3.

Feasibility of Sustainable Drainage Techniques

4.12 Table 4.3 provides an overview of the feasibility of a range of SUDS techniques in order to identify which may be suitable for the proposed development. Further details are provided for the techniques which are considered to be possible.

Table 4.3: SUDS Feasibility Matrix.

Technique Comments Feasibility

Green roofs Requires flat or minimal slope roofs. Limited value for runoff Not Feasible attenuation in comparison with other techniques. Rooftop

solar panels are anticipated to be included within the design limiting space for green roof.

Soakaways and Require infiltration rates of 1 x 10-6 m/s or greater. Shallow Not Feasible infiltration trenches soakaways or infiltration trenches would be required where

groundwater is shallow (i.e. less than 2.0 mbgl). Use of infiltration at the Site not feasible due to impermeable capping layer.

Infiltration basins / Are widely applicable for attenuation and treatment of Not Feasible swales surface runoff by infiltration into the ground. Require slope

of no more than 4-10% and can act as a substitute for soakaways where groundwater is shallow. Use of infiltration at the Site not feasible due to impermeable capping layer.

Bio-retention – Primarily used to remove pollutants from runoff and due to Not Feasible landscaped their shallow nature are not as effective at runoff attenuation

infiltration areas as other SUDS techniques. Use of infiltration at the Site not feasible due to impermeable capping layer.

Permeable Ideally requires a level Site and favourable underlying Limited Feasibility pavement ground conditions. Could be implemented on parking and

pedestrian pavement if linked with conveyance system. Not suitable for areas of HGV traffic.

Non-infiltration Used in the same way as carrier ditches or storage bunds. Feasible basins / swales These could be used for storage and/or conveyance to a

balancing pond. Feasible for the site, particular in areas identified for landscaping.

Filter drains These are normally used adjacent to areas of car parking or Potentially Feasible roads and convey runoff via flow through an engineered

substrate. Potential use in the treatment train for the Site.

10

Technique Comments Feasibility

Balancing ponds These are permanent ponds that provide storage above the Potentially Feasible resting water level in the pond. Are appropriate for most

Sites but require suitable space. Require impermeable soils or can be lined. Space is potentially available within the areas designated for landscaping but will be limited in depth due to underlying capping layer disturbance.

Geo-cellular storage Geo-cellular storage or similar sub-base medium beneath Potentially Feasible car parking areas and/or other areas of hardstanding and/or

other forms of underground attenuation. Potential use for high volume to minimum depth ratio.

Proposed Drainage Strategy

4.13 Table 4.3 concludes that there are relatively few SUDS measures that could potentially be adopted on the Site to provide the desired rate of attenuation assuming that the impermeable capping layer will remain unaltered.

4.14 The current 100 year runoff rate for the critical 30-minute storm is 620.9 l/s (Table 4.1). It is intended to provide attenuation to ensure that the 100 year plus climate change rainfall event is controlled on Site and discharged at a rate no greater than 496.7 l/s, i.e. 20% less than the existing 100 year runoff rate. This would provide the betterment in runoff rates required by the NPPF, Northamptonshire County Council Surface Water Guidance for Developers, NNCSS Policy 13 and associated EA standing advice.

4.15 The 100 year plus climate change rainfall event post-development has a volume of 1340.1 m3 for the 30 minute critical storm duration for peak flow (Table 4.2). However, the critical storm duration for peak runoff rate is not necessarily the same as that for peak volume. The most feasible option identified to manage Site drainage is through the use of a non-infiltration basin, with non- infiltration swales utilised for conveyance and additional storage if required. This will be located within the eastern part of the Site as identified on the Site Layout Plan (Appendix A).

4.16 A basic simulation has been undertaken in MicroDrainage which has modelled a range of rainfall scenarios in order to ascertain the volume of storage required to attenuate the 100 year plus climate change rainfall event to 496.7 l/s. A non-infiltration pond or basin with a volume of 727 m3 is enough to control a range of rainfall scenarios on-site (refer to Appendix F). The proposed non- infiltration basin has a volume of 780 m3 (assumed surface area of 1,140 m2, basal area of 810 m2 and depth of 0.8 m) and, therefore, contains the required volume as well as an additional freeboard allowance.

11

4.17 It is considered that the addition of non-infiltration swales for conveyance and storage will decrease the total amount of storage required in the non-infiltration basin and provide additional water quality benefits.

4.18 The attenuation system would discharge through the dedicated surface water sewer on-Site to the mains surface water sewer located on Shelton Road, adjacent to the eastern boundary of the Site (as per the current arrangement) which subsequently discharges to the Willow Brook North Arm watercourse. All drainage would be routed to the ultimate point of discharge by gravity.

4.19 A detailed drainage design will be undertaken in due course to consider the implementation of SUDS on the Site. The total volume of attenuation required could be reduced through the combination of several SUDS components.

Designing for Exceedance Events

4.20 Current best practice guidance on flood risk requires an evaluation of how rainfall events beyond the design capacity of the proposed drainage system would be managed and what effects they are likely to have on flood risk at the Site or surrounding areas.

4.21 For the drainage proposals described above, should a rainfall event exceeding the 100 year plus 20% climate change event occur, then it is expected to result in an exceedance of the drainage system leading to runoff draining in a south-easterly direction towards the main access track. The Site is currently graded to encourage flows to this point as part of the surface water drainage strategy. Such exceedance flows are therefore not expected to affect people or property in the vicinity of the Site.

Long Term Maintenance of SUDS

4.22 It would be the responsibility of the developer to either maintain the infiltration/ detention basin themselves or to negotiate with and secure the agreement of a third party to maintain the sustainable drainage system, as detailed in consultation document ‘Delivering Sustainable Drainage Systems’ (September 2014) published by Defra.

4.23 However, such an adoption would require consultation with the adopting body during the detailed design stage to ensure that the minimum requirements for SUDS design are met. The

12

5 CONCLUSIONS

5.1 The requirements for a Flood Risk Assessment are provided in the National Planning Policy Framework and associated Planning Practice Guidance together with the Environment Agency’s Guidance Notes. This policy and associated guidance have been followed in the preparation of this FRA.

5.2 The assessment of flood risk has established that the Site lies entirely within Flood Zone 1 and therefore has a ‘low risk’ of flooding as defined in the NPPF. The proposed non-infiltration basin has a volume of 780 m3 (assumed surface area of 1,140 m2, basal area of 810 m2 and depth of 0.8 m) and, therefore, contains the required volume as well as an additional freeboard allowance PPG. The Site is also not at risk from reservoir flooding. The Corby SFRA Stage 2 (Faber Maunsell, August 2006) has been reviewed and no records of historical flooding have been reported for the Site or adjacent areas as a result of river, sewer or groundwater flooding.

5.3 Flood levels for the Willow Brook North Arm located adjacent to the north of the Site were acquired from the EA for a variety of probability events taken from the Willow Book Model (April 2007). The maximum flood level is modelled at 95.87 mAOD for the 0.1% event. The Site topographic levels are set at approximately 105.08 mAOD to the north-east and 107.82 mAOD to the north-west. There is also a 1.5 m high landscape bund located between the Site and the Willow Brook North Arm. These topographic levels therefore provide the Site with a freeboard of approximately 9.21 m above the 0.1% annual probability event.

5.4 Table 2 of the NPPF PPG sets out a schedule of land uses based on their vulnerability or sensitivity to flooding. The Proposed Development is classified as ‘less vulnerable’ to flooding as set out in Table 2. Referring to Table 3 of the NPPF PPG, ‘less vulnerable’ land uses are considered appropriate within Flood Zone 1 without the need for the Exception Test.

5.5 A review of the feasibility of a variety of SUDS techniques has been undertaken to identify those that are feasible for the Proposed Development. It has been concluded that the preferred drainage strategy for the Site is to attenuate runoff in non-infiltration swales and basins prior to discharge to the dedicated surface water sewer as per the current arrangement. However, consideration should be given at the detailed design stage to other potentially feasible SUDS components that can reduce the required volume of attenuation within the non-infiltration basin, as well as provide potential water quality, biodiversity and visual amenity benefits.

5.6 The existing 100 year runoff rate is 620.9 l/s (Table 4.1); therefore, attenuation would be provided to control runoff to 80% of this rate (i.e. 496.7 l/s) for all events up to and including the 100 year plus 20% climate change rainfall event.

15

5.7 A basic storage simulation has been undertaken using MicroDrainage which indicates that a non-infiltration pond or basin with a volume of 726.2 m3 would limit the rate of discharge to 496.7 l/s which is a 20% reduction on existing runoff rates. The proposed non-infiltration basin has a volume of 780 m3 (assumed surface area of 1,140 m2, basal area of 810 m2 and depth of 0.8 m) and, therefore, contains the required volume as well as an additional freeboard allowance.

5.8 Additional storage could be provided by non-infiltration swales used for conveyance. This drainage strategy is considered feasible and would provide the betterment in runoff rates required by the NPPF, Northamptonshire County Council Surface Water Guidance for Developers, NNCSS Policy 13 and associated EA standing advice.

5.9 This FRA has demonstrated that the Proposed Development will be safe and that it would not increase flood risk elsewhere. The Proposed Development use is considered appropriate in relation to the flood risk vulnerability classifications set out in Table 3 of the NPPF PPG. The Proposed Development should therefore be considered acceptable in planning policy terms.

BGE 200945 1 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report Introduction

1.1 Babtie Group Ltd (BG) was appointed by Kenilworth Corby Ltd. (KCl) to provide advice and observation services for remedial works at Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate, Corby, Northants.

1.2 This report details the clearance and remediation carried out for the site, as observed by Babtie, and provides records of the monitoring that was undertaken. Validation was required to confirm that remediation works have been carried out in accordance with the relevant Remediation Statement(3).

1.3 Works were carried out by Weston Landfill Ltd (WLl) and commenced in October 2000. Babtie Group provided an engineer to observe and record the works on a limited part-time basis throughout the contract.

1.4 Due to previous open cast mining operations and infilling with poor quality materials, the site has a potential for settlement and drains poorly and is considered suitable for industrial use subject to capping with a layer of inert material and installation of adequate drainage. The design criteria for the works is specified in Austin Trueman Associates (ATA) Health and

Safety Plan (1) and briefly comprises:

• The ground surface will be reshaped, balancing cuts and fills as far as possible.

• A zone of landscaping 17m wide will be provided along the top of the bank above Willowbrook Stream to allow for any possible future instability of the bank. On the east, south and west sides of the site a zone of landscaping of 4m wide will be provided. Suitable plants will be selected to both survive in the slightly contaminated soils existing on the site and to enhance the stability of the sloping ground surfaces.

• The finished surface of the parking area will have a minimum crossfall of 1:50. The site will be graded to fall towards a central valley where stormwater will drain through a system of gullies and oil separators into the existing piped stormwater drainage system within the site.

• Levels and gradients will be arranged such that if one part of the piped system becomes blocked or otherwise fails then the surface water would overflow to the next point of entry, or off site, without ponding to an unacceptable level.

• A drainage layer is to be incorporated beneath the Type 1 material laid down to intercept any waters that percolate through the surface.

• The existing deep drainage ditch is to be infilled.

BGE 200945 2 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

1.5 Remediation works were based on information available from previous investigations.

1.6 Recommendations, remedial options and the procedures adopted during the remediation

works are detailed in Frank Graham Consulting Engineers Ltd. Remediation Statement (3).

1.7 Work comprised:

• Clearance and disposal of all unwanted vegetation and contaminated topsoil to a suitably licensed landfill

• Regrading of the site to provide the required falls, with rolling of final formation.

• Breaking out of the concrete within the naphthalene pit area with subsequent chemical analysis prior to re-use of uncontaminated material.

• The central ditch was filled in with hard materials to form a haul road down the site.

• Placement of a 1OOmm drainage layer comprising clean chippings over a close weave polypropylene geotextile, Propex 6040 and Propex 6047, and in the area of the haul road topped with a geotextile separator Terram 1000.

• Construction of a 500 mm thick capping layer over the drainage layer to finished site levels.

Site Conditions

Site Description

2.1 The site is approximately rectangular in shape, being 350m long and 220m (max) wide, and covers an area of 6.7ha. The National Grid Reference for the site is SP 915 907 (Figure 1).

2.2 Willowbrook Stream bounds the site to the north, and Shelton Road and a low landscaped mound to the east. The site is bounded to the south by industrial units on Shelton and Pywell Roads and to the west by a large car park used for parking fleet vehicles. There are post and wire security fences on the northern and western boundaries.

2.3 At the initiation of works the site was undeveloped and overgrown. An east west depression approximately 1m deep ran through the centre of the site and there was a slight fall towards the east end of the site. A stormwater and foulwater sewer were laid on both sides of this depression through the site. Details of existing services can be found on ATA's Drawing No. 30550/02/P5.

2 2.4 A 3025m bunded and fenced area indicated on historical maps as a 'Naphthalene pit' is present in the south west corner of the site. A moat lies on the inside of the fence with a concrete wall surrounding a square central area that is accessed by a concrete bridge.

2.5 Access to the site is via Shelton Road, located to the east of the site.

Site History

2.6 The historical development of the site has been extracted from Austin Trueman Associate's

(ATA) Report (1) and Frank Graham Consulting engineers Ltd Report (3). This is summarised below:

2.7 The site was extensively quarried for Northampton Sand Ironstone from 1904 up until 1948. This has resulted in depths of up to 19m of loosely compacted overburden.

2.8 Up until 1958 the site consists of open fields.

2.9 After this time, settlement ponds for waste slurry from the nearby steelworks were present along the eastern part of the site. The slurries were contained by a bund and allowed to find their own level over the backfilled opencast waste. Chemical analysis of the slurries carried out by British Steel Corporation describes it as "non-toxic inert fine dust made up of ore/sinter, coke, lime/limestone particles and blast furnace volatilisation products such as zinc and lead."

BGE 200945 4 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

2.10 In the mid 1950's additional material was imported and the site was levelled to around 106.70m AOD. Following this, parts of the site were used for dumping flue dust and slag from the adjoining gas works. Drainage from the gas works was directed to a moated enclosure near the south west corner of the site, possibly now the area of the naphthalene pit.

2.11 Between 1964 and 1973 an area was constructed for the storage of naphthalene from British Steel's Dene Coke Works. It is believed that this 'naphthalene pit' may have been stripped out/removed on completion of this activity and backfilled with materials taken from the Shelton Road Site.

2.12 There are five known closed or open landfill sites in the immediate vicinity of the site.

However, it is considered by Frank Graham Consulting Engineers Ltd (3) that there is negligible possibility for on-site migration of landfill gases from these landfills.

Ground Conditions

2.13 A summary of known ground conditions and contamination on site prior to remediation is detailed below.

2.14 The original geology of the site prior to open cast mining comprised (2):

• Boulder Clay,

• Upper Lincolnshire Limestone

• Lower Lincolnshire Limestone

• Lower Estuarine Series

• Northampton Sand Ironstone

• Upper Lias Deposits

Previous Report No. CKG/590196/001 (3) describes drift deposits on the site as Glacial Till, underlain by Northampton Sand Ironstone. Soils on the site are depicted as restored

ironstone workings, mainly fine loam over clayey soils. The same investigation (3) encountered coke production waste to a maxim depth of l.4m bgl in localised discreet surface layers in certain areas of the site overlying the glacial till deposits which were encountered across the whole site. These deposits comprise low permeability stiff silty reworked clays, occasionally sandy and with chalk gravel to depths between 1. 7m and 14.3m Within the reworked glacial till soft to very soft black silty steelworks waste up to 8.7m thick was encountered in parts of the site towards the north overlying up to 4.2m of glacial till at depth. The deep glacial till contained sand and ironstone pockets.

BGE 200945 5 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

2.15 The Northampton Sand Ironstone (NSI), the limited remains of which underlie the site, is identified as a locally important minor aquifer. A worst case soil vulnerability classification i.e. high soil leaching potential, has been assumed for this area from the Groundwater Vulnerability Map of Northamptonshire and West Fens. However previous leachability tests indicate that the reworked boulder clay material has a very low leaching potential 13). In addition most of the NSI has been mined from the site, and so the site no longer contains the potentially vulnerable water bearing stratum.

2.16 Test results indicated that there is a low potential for the vertical migration of compounds into any underlying water bearing strata due to the reworked glacial till surrounding the sludge, preventing lateral and vertical migration.

Obstructions

2.17 Prior to remediation works, site investigations identified that parts of the site had been used for industrial purposes for some time. As a result some historical and existing structures and services may be anticipated as potential obstructions.

2.18 Stormwater and foulwater drains have already been identified running through the site.

Summary of Prior Known Soil Contamination

2.19 ATA's Report 11) describes the soils as being relatively uncompacted and likely to settle over time. The soils also have a low permeability and will not drain well. Natural groundwater levels appear to be within or below the underlying ironstone, with limited perched water existing at a higher level. Chemical analysis indicates high levels of heavy metals, sulphate and sulphur. Other contaminants including PAHs, phenols, TPH, sulphide, cyanide and thiocyanate were found below ICRCl threshold trigger levels for public open spaces.

2.20 Contest Melbourne Weeks Ltd. investigation 12) encountered similar ground conditions and results from soil sample analysis show some evidence of contamination by zinc, ammoniacal nitrogen, sulphate and sulphide.

2.21 Previous reports have concluded that there is a minimal but recognisable risk as a result for the historical and current conditions on the site. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) should be worn by site workers carrying out earthworks or construction in the ground.

2.22 Chemical analysis from a previous report No. CKG/590196/001 13) has indicated elevated levels of contaminative substances generally within the black steelworks waste, where leaching tests have indicated that these compounds have limited mobility. Heavy metals (zinc, arsenic, lead, boron and nickel) were encountered at concentrations above the relevant ICRCl threshold trigger level in all the material found on site. However, they were concentrated within the steelworks sludge found at depths of between 4.8m and 15.65m bgl. Sulphur and

BGE 200945 6 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

sulphates were found to be at elevated concentrations across the whole site in the near surface soil layer at concentrations ranging from 0.22 to 3.2%. Organic contamination, including PAHs, phenols and TPH, was found to be below the relevant ICRCL threshold trigger level and Dutch guideline values. Other determinants analysed were found to be generally at concentrations below the relevant guidelines. Leachability tests undertaken indicate that the quantities of contaminants leaching from the soil are below the Dutch Intervention levels.

2.23 It is concluded that the majority of the contamination is found within the steelworks wastes which are encapsulated in glacial till within the site. The near surface deposits are impacted but with contaminants which do not pose a risk to the users of the proposed 'industrial' development of the site as a car park, which in effect provides a barrier between site users and any contamination. The contamination found has been shown to be relatively insoluble and therefore immobile.

Summary of Prior known Groundwater Conditions

2.24 Previous investigations (3) have not encountered any significant groundwater. However, the steelwork waste encountered was found to be "very soft, loose and wet (saturated)". A perched water table was also thought to be encountered in the north west corner of the site.

2.25 Report No. CKG/590196/001 (3) indicates that groundwater was encountered at the site in five boreholes. Chemical analysis of this groundwater indicated that the water contained only elevated levels of sulphate above background levels. Depths of groundwater in existing wells on the site installed during previous investigations were noted between 7.0m and 20.0m bgl.

2.26 Contest Melbourne Weeks Ltd. investigation (2) encountered groundwater in the fill at depths of between 3.0m and 15.3m bgl and locally within the Northampton Sand Ironstone at depths of between 12.7m and 20.0m bgl. Levels measured in standpipes ranged from 2.63m to 19.0m bgl. Chemical analysis indicated that groundwater quality at the site was generally poor, being contaminated predominantly with ammoniacal nitrogen, cyanide (total), lead and sulphate.

2.27 Chemical analysis from surface water samples taken from Willowbrook and the moat

surrounding the naphthalene pit for Report No. CKG/590196/001 (3) have indicated levels of contaminants below the Dutch guidelines for groundwater. Results from the sediment samples analysed were below the detection limit specified by the Engineers.

2.28 The available information suggests that there is evidence of contamination within perched water on the site, but that this affected water is contained within the site as no impacts have been recorded in the adjacent stream.

BGE 200945 7 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

Gas Monitoring

2.29 The site is known to be producing limited landfill type gas in the form of methane and carbon dioxide from the limited sludge deposits buried deep within the waste.

2.30 Gas Monitoring reported in Frank Graham Consulting Engineers Ltd. Report (3) showed methane levels ranging from 0 to 5.9%, carbon dioxide levels ranging from 0 to 18.7% and oxygen levels falling to 0%. The report believes that the gases originate within the steelworks waste material which is sealed above and below by the reworked Boulder Clay, effectively providing a seal to major gas migration. Hydrogen sulphide monitoring during one visit indicated maximum levels to be 41.8ppm.

2.31 Corby Borough Council does not consider the site to be at risk due to landfill gas. Gas protection measures have not been required for development previously occurring in the vicinity of Site G.

2.32 A gas spike survey undertaken on the site encountered very low levels of carbon dioxide and no methane.

2.33 A low level gas risk has been identified, which may be magnified by capping the site. Therefore the remediation measures incorporate measures to mitigate such risks.

Liaison with Environment Agency and Local Authority

3.1 The findings of the site investigation and subsequent remediation statement have been discussed and agreed with the Environment Agency Groundwater Protection Officer and the local Environmental Health Officer at Corby Borough Council prior to the commencement of the site remediation works

3.2 The regulatory bodies require copies of all validation data to be supplied on completion of the site works as a record of the remediation carried out, and in compliance with the planning conditions attached to the site. A copy of the relevant planning conditions is presented in Appendix A.

Site Remediation

Scope of Works

4.1 Remediation Works were carried out in compliance with the Remediation Statement 131and in accordance with the Contractors Method Statements.

BGE 200945 8 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

4.2 The remediation works were carried out in accordance with the relevant requirements of the following legislation, as current at the time of the site works:

• Environmental Protection Act 1990; • Control of Pollution Act 1974; • Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 1994 as amended by COSHH (Amendment) Regulation 1996 and COSHH (Amendment) Regulation 1997; • Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and (Application to Environmentally Hazardous Substances) Regulation 1996; • Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 1994; • Water Resources Act 1991 ; • Water Regulations 1999; • Landfill Tax Regulation s 1996 (SI1996, Nos. 1527, 1528, 1529);

4.3 The Remediation Works were carried out to provide a suitable site for redevelopment as car parking and above ground storage.

4.4 Material unsuitable for engineering purposes and obstructions were removed.

Project Management

4.5 Babtie Group Ltd was appointed to review the remediation design and drawings, liaise with the Environment Agency and the Local Authority, provide advice and validation services based on occasional site observation.

4.6 Weston Landfill Ltd. have undertaken the remediation works on the site, supported by an Environmental Specialist, Ken Rashbrooke, to carry out the necessary site inspections and validation sampling. Babtie Group Ltd were not present at all times when Mr Rashbrooke was on site.

4.7 Haulage of materials taken off site was undertaken by G. Webb Haulage Ltd., whose Waste Registration Number is CAM/105231. All materials were taken to Weldon Landfill Site in Northamptonshire. This site is operated by Shanks Waste Solutions under landfill licence number C/25. Copies of the waste transfer tickets and landfill licence are presented in Appendix B.

4.8 Analysis of soil and water samples were carried out by Eclipse Voelcker Science (EVS). This laboratory is UKAS accredited. A copy of the laboratory accreditation certificate is included as Appendix C. The results of chemical analysis of soils are presented in Appendix D.

4.9 Weston Landfill Ltd. was responsible for all site works including site clearance and demolition works, excavation, regrading, backfilling, and compaction of backfill. In addition Weston Landfill Ltd. was also responsible for site health and safety procedures, and fulfilling the role

BGE 200945 9 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

of Principal Contractor under Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 1994 (COM).

4.10 Austin Trueman Associates provided project management, structural design and planning supervisor services for the works.

Progress of Remediation

4.11 The progress of the works, as observed, and key issues are summarised in the following section. The full minutes of the site meetings are provided as Appendix E. Site visits were carried out by Babtie on 28/11/00, 19/01/01,2/02/01,30/03/01, 18/5/01, 6n/Ol, 8/8/01, 31/8/01,28/9/01,19/10/01, and 21/12/01.

4.12 Works commenced October 2000 and were effectively complete on 21 December 2001.

4.13 The initial site works comprised setting up site accommodation and securing access. This was followed by clearance of existing site vegetation and any other obstructions.

4.14 A single surface water sample was taken from a location adjacent to the contractor's diesel fuelling site on 9th October 2000 (Wl). The concentration of PAHs found to be present in the

sample (0.38IJg/i) was above the 0.21Jg/1 Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations (3). To remedy this situation the tanks were enclosed in bunds to prevent spillage and further testing of the surface water undertaken. The results of this and any other testing are presented in the Appendices and discussed in Sections 4.33- 4.39.

4.15 A site visit on 28th November 2000 noted that the site clearance was near completion and a fence had been erected around the perimeter of the site. Clearance of the area to the south­ west of the naphthalene pit was still to be undertaken and the site had been partially regraded. Surplus material was stockpiled near the northern edge to form a landscape bund.

4.16 Breaking out of the naphthalene pit started on 8th January 2001.

4.17 The site had been cleared of all vegetation by the site visit on 19th January 2001, and the naphthalene pit was being broken out. The site had been further regraded and surplus material stockpiled near to the northern edge. All topsoil had been stockpiled separately on site. At this time only rubbish had been taken off site.

nd 4.18 It was confirmed on Monday 22 January 2001 that three samples had been taken from the naphthalene pit area. These samples consisted of concrete and soil under the concrete.

4.19 Works were being carried out in the naphthalene pit area on the site visit of 2nd February 2001. Black sludge from the moat around the naphthalene pit was being taken off site at this time to Weldon Landfill Site, operated by Shanks Waste Solutions and the concrete from the naphthalene pit was stockpiled within the area delimited by the moat. Surface water was

BGE 200945 10 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

being collected in the ditch bisecting the site and discharged into the surface water drainage system, with a straw filter installed to prevent silt from entering the sewer.

4.20 On the 2nd February 2001, three soil samples were taken at surface level in the naphthalene pit area after spoil had been removed. Two water samples were also taken, one from the trench leading to the surface water drainage manhole (W3) and the second from the trench leading to discharge into the surface water drainage (W4).

4.21 The site visit of 30th March 2001 noted that the haulage road was being constructed and that the concrete from the naphthalene pit had been crushed and placed in the haulage road. The ditch around the naphthalene pit had not been drained at this time but the water from the ditch looked clear. The ditch previously running along the eastern boundary of the site had been backfilled and the area re-profiled. Profiles had been set up across the site, but it was noted that the set up of the profiles in the south-east corner of the site was incorrect. These were checked and modified accordingly.

4.22 On the site visit of 18th May 2001 it was noted that the ditch around the naphthalene pit had been drained and that the water, which had been tested (W2) and proven to be uncontaminated had been discharged into the foul sewer. Two soil samples were taken at the western end of the site, north of the haulage road, a further soil sample was taken in the middle of the site where topsoil was present, and one water sample was taken where the surface water discharges into the sewer (W5).

4.23 The backfilling of the ditch to form the haulage road had been completed by the site visit of 6th July 2001. In addition, the area to the south of the haulage road had been levelled and proof rolled and the area to the north of the haulage road was in the process of being proof rolled. Hardcore material had been stockpiled at the eastern extremity of the haulage road and a trial area of geotextile covered with backfill material had been prepared to the south of the haulage road. At this site meeting it was noted that elevated concentrations were recorded in soil samples G13, and that three additional samples in vicinity of G13 were taken (G14, G15 & G16). It was also noted that the area around G13 had been recapped. It was decided at this meeting that the trial backfill material was not suitable for the intended use and an alternative suitable source material was required.

4.24 A site visit took place on 8th August 2001 to undertake validation soil sampling of the area to the south of the haulage road (G17 to G26 inclusive). Two plastic sample bags were filled with surface material in ten different locations. A fax received from EVS confirmed that the use of plastic bags for sample collection would not affect the UKAS accreditation of the analysis.

4.25 At the time of the site visit of 31 st August 2001 works were being undertaken on the haulage road and the area to the south of the haulage road. The area to the north of the haulage road had previously been levelled. Reinforcement bars were found to be sticking out of the ground

BGE 200945 11 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

in a number of locations south of the haulage road. An alternative source of backfill, being local sandstone, had been secured.

4.26 The ProPex geotextile had been laid and subsoil was being laid and rolled in the area to the south of the haulage road at the time of the site visit on 28th September 2001. Also, drainage channels had been installed in part of the northern section of the site. It was confirmed on site that the reinforcement bars found to be sticking out of the ground previously were dealt with prior to the geotextile being laid down.

4.27 On the site visit of 19th October 2001 the stone layer was being laid in the area to the south of the haulage road and the northern section of the site was levelled and ready for the ProPex to be laid. Validation samples were taken consisting of two plastic sample bags each from 16 different locations (G27 to G42 inclusive).

4.28 An additional six validation samples were taken during a later site visit by Mr Rashbrooke. Samples G43 to G48 inclusive were taken in the area previously used as the site compound and along the Haulage Road.

4.29 The fencing around the site compound and two site cabins had been removed, and the stone

layer was being completed in th is section of the site at the time of the site visit on 21 st December 2001. Weston Landfill confirmed that the perimeter venting trench comprising pea shingle had also been constructed. The diesel tank had been moved to the southern side of the haulage road. All except one manhole had been cut down to ground level and covered appropriately. The gas monitoring points had also been reduced to ground level and gas taps, concrete surround and approximately 250mm diameter circular access covers installed.

4.30 Figure 2 has been produced by Austin Trueman Associates and shows the site layout and construction details, including the drainage layout, formation levels, the surface construction and the venting trench. No specific 'as-built' drawings are available during production of this report. Photographs of the site progress are provided in Appendix F

4.31 At the time of writing, the landscaping details had not been finalised and remain outstanding. Future additional drainage such as the oil interceptor and any further surfacing works do not form part of the remediation stage of the works and are not covered by this report.

Soil and Water Testing

4.32 A total of 48 soil and 4 water samples were taken and analysed throughout the site works. A location plan of the samples is presented in Figure 3. Chemical test results are presented in Appendix D.

4.33 Once the ground had been levelled and proof rolled ten validation samples were taken from the area to the south of the haulage road and 16 samples to the north of the haulage road. A further 6 samples were taken in the area of the site compound and along the Haulage road.

BGE 200945 12 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

These samples were taken from the surface material using two plastic bags.

4.34 Results from the soil samples analysed have been compared to ICRCL trigger levels for Landscaped areas, buildings and hard cover and Parks, playing fields and open space. Water analyses were compared to the UK Drinking Water Standard and in the absence of appropriate parameters, the Dutch Groundwater Intervention Concentrations.

4.35 Sample G 13 taken close to the haulage near the western end of the site recorded a concentration of arsenic of 77mg/kg. This is above the ICRCL 40mg/kg threshold trigger level for parks, playing fields and open spaces. Due to this result three further samples were taken to clarify the contamination levels in this area (G 14. G15 & G16). Concentrations measured in these additional soil analyses are below the remediation criteria for all determinants including arsenic. The area was therefore deemed to be satisfactory for the proposed end use of the site.

4.36 Analyses of all other soil samples did not record contaminant concentrations above the remediation criteria for contaminants that are hazardous to human health. However. phytotoxic contaminants (nickel and zinc) were found in some samples to be above the ICRCL threshold trigger value. Concentrations of zinc were generally found to be above the ICRCL trigger threshold value for sites where vegetation is to be grown in the western extremity of the site. with the majority being in the area of the naphthalene pit and its surroundings. G47 is the only sample found to be above the remediation criteria in the eastern part of the site. Table1 presents the samples that have recorded concentrations above the specific remediation criteria. However the presence of elevated concentrations of phytotoxic metals is not considered relevant to the proposed site usage as hardstanding.

BGE 200945 13 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

All other determinants are phytotoxic metals and do not represent a risk to the site development.

4.37 All of the five water samples analysed contain high concentrations of sulphate above the UK Drinking Water Standard(DWSl, as can be seen in Table 2. The levels are still relatively low and do not pose a risk to the proposed development. However sulphate protection measures may be required if concrete is ever to be placed in the ground in the future. A PAH concentration of 0.38~g/1 was also measured in sample Wl, which is above the 0.2~g/1 UK Drinking Water Standard. This relates to conditions near the fuel tank before remedial bunding was implemented.

4.38 Phenols have been analysed to a detection limit of 0.1 mg/I, which is actually above the UK DWS of 0.5~g/1. We, therefore, cannot determine if the levels of phenols in the water samples are above the DWS, however all samples recorded phenols levels below detection and phenols are not considered to represent an appreciable risk to the development or associated ground and surface water ..

Conclusions

5.1 The remediation of the site, as observed by Babtie, has been carried out in accordance with the Remediation Statement and Contractors Method Statements.

5.2 The remediation of the site has been designed to reduce infiltration and direct any rainwater or runoff into the dedicated subsurface drains and surface water sewers. Remediation involved the reworking and levelling of the site, with validation samples taken of the surface soils to confirm soil concentrations were below the acceptable concentrations, prior to capping with imported crushed natural stone.

BGE 200945 14 Kenilworth Corby Ltd. Site G - Shelton Road, Willowbrook Industrial Estate Validation Report

5.3 Venting of any underground gasses was facilitated by construction of perimeter granular trenches.

5.4 With the exception of zinc and nickel all validation samples taken from reworked and levelled ground had concentrations of contaminants below the remediation criteria. Zinc and nickel are phytotoxic contaminants only. Due to the proposed end use of the site being hardstanding the presence of phytotoxic contaminants is not considered to be a potential risk to the end use of the site and the presence of such metals is not relevant to the current land­ use. Clean topsoil is to be provided in landscaped areas.

APPENDIX C – EA Data

Mr B Lewis Our ref: CCN-2013- 34013 [email protected] Your ref: 130313/FW11

Date: 11 April 2013

Dear Mr Lewis

Basic Flood Risk Assessment Data Request for Willowbrook East Industrial Estate, Corby (SP9090090810).

Thank you for your request of 12 March 2013 to use Environment Agency data, Product 3, in the development of the Flood Risk Assessment (FRA) for the above site. The information is attached.

If you have requested this information to help inform a development proposal, then you should note the detail in the attached advisory text on the use of Environment Agency Information for Flood Risk Assessments / Flood Consequence Assessments.

Flood Map The attached Basic FRA Map includes the current Flood Map for your area. The Flood Map indicates the area at risk of flooding, assuming no flood defences exist, for a flood event with a 0.5% chance of occurring in any year for flooding from the sea, or a 1% chance of occurring for fluvial (river) flooding. It also shows the extent of the Extreme Flood Outline which represents the extent of a flood event with a 0.1% chance of occurring in any year, or the highest recorded historic extent if greater.

The Flood Map only indicates the extent and likelihood of flooding from rivers or the sea. It should also be remembered that flooding may occur from other sources such as surface water sewers, road drainage, etc.

Fluvial Flood Levels The fluvial flood levels for the model nodes shown on the attached Basic FRA Map are set out in the table below. They are measured in metres above Ordnance Datum Newlyn (mODN).

These levels are taken from the Willow Brook Model (April 2007) and are the most up-to-date currently available. We aim to review our models on a regular basis, so if you are using these levels more than twelve months from the date of this letter, please contact us again to check that they are still valid.

Please note that these levels are “in-channel” levels and therefore may not represent the flood level on the floodplain, particularly where the channel is embanked or has raised defences.

Fluvial Defence Information There are no formal flood defences protecting this site. The natural channel which is maintained by us, provides a nominal protection against a flood event with a 1% chance of occurring in any year (1 in 100). We inspect the channel regularly to ensure that any potential defects are identified early.

History of Flooding With regards to the history of flooding I can advise that we do not have any records of flooding in this area. It is possible that other flooding may have occurred that we do not have records for, and other organisations, such as the Local Authority or Internal Drainage Boards, may have records.

Climate Change Climate change will increase flood risk due to overtopping of defences. Please contact our Welland and Nene Partnership and Strategic Overview Team to discuss how this risk should be considered within your Flood Risk Assessment.

This information is provided subject to the enclosed notice, which you should read.

If you have any queries or would like to discuss the content of this letter further please contact Heather Claase using the telephone/email details below. Please quote our CCN reference number in all correspondence where data is referenced, including the Flood Risk Assessment.

Yours sincerely

Dark blue shows the area that could be affected by flooding, either from rivers or the sea, if there were no flood defences. This area could be flooded:

- from the sea by a flood that has a 0.5% (1 in 200) or greater chance of happening each year.

- or from a river by a flood that has a 1% (1 in 100) or greater chance of happening each year.

Light blue shows the extent of the Extreme Flood Outline, which represents the extent of a flood event with a 0.1% chance of occurring in any year, or the highest recorded historic extent if greater.

These two colours show the extent of the natural floodplain if there were no flood defences or certain other manmade structures and channel improvements. Sites outside the two extents, but behind raised defences, may be affected by flooding if the defences are overtopped or fail.

You should also consult the Strategic Flood Risk Assessment produced by your local planning authority.

In Wales, you should refer to TAN15 for information about what flood consequence assessment is needed for new development in the different flood zones http://new.wales.gov.uk/splash;jsessionid=8ylGTfGZthmB0t2vhp6hS1GcB1LXvZ zB3Ylczf20Xn7LK3zK0nMk!981825250?orig=/topics/planning/policy/tans/tan15/

You should also consult the Strategic Flood Consequence Assessment if one has been produced by your local planning authority.

In both England and Wales you should note that:

1. Information supplied by the Environment Agency may be used to assist in producing a Flood Risk / Consequence Assessment (FRA / FCA) where one is required, but does not constitute such an assessment on its own.

2. This information covers flood risk from main rivers and the sea, and you will need to consider other potential sources of flooding, such as groundwater or overland runoff. The information produced by the local planning authority referred to above may assist here.

3. Where a planning application requires a FRA / FCA and this is not submitted or deficient, the Environment Agency may well raise an objection.

4. For more significant proposals in higher flood risk areas, we would be pleased to discuss details with you ahead of making any planning application, and you should also discuss the matter with your local planning authority. 89_07_SD02, Version 6

Mr P MCDonagh Avoncrest Developments Limited Suite 11 , Berkeley House th Barnet Road Your ref: 29 January 2010 London Colney Herts Our ref: jslCG/5374 AL21BG

Dear Pat

SITE G CORBY, NORTHANTS Review of Remediation Contractor's Proposals

Thank you for your letter dated 29th January 2010. As requested, we have reviewed the report extract supplied and assessed the issues associated with redeveloping the site as a business park.

The site comprises 20 acres, the majority of which is currently in use as vehicle storage. The northern boundary is the Willowbrook, which lies at the bottom of a steep embankment.

The site has a history of being quarried for Northampton Sand Ironstone (NSI) and then backfilled with uncompacted reworked overburden (Boulder Clay) with the addition of some areas, which were subsequently used as sludge lagoons containing steelworks waste, and some localised surface deposition of flue dust and slag from a nearby gasworks. There has been an investigation undertaken on the site which has indicated that the fill material is up to 19m thick, but contamination is limited and restricted to the buried imported sludge lagoons and slag waste on the site. Similarly, the only groundwater encountered on the site was perched within the reworked fill and was contaminated where found within the sludge materials. However this water is confined within the site by the clay fill and no impacts were found in the adjacent stream. The NSI is the local aquifer but has been extracted and is no longer present in this area of Corby. Low levels of soil gas were recorded as result of the organic content within the sludge material.

As a result of the above conditions, when the site was redeveloped for its current use, a series of remediation works were completed, including removal of existing redundant structures, regrading of the surface to fill in hollows/ditches and facilitate surface water run-off into a dedicated drainage system passing through an oil interceptor to the mains surface water sewer.

The remediation works also included capping of the site with a geotextile and 100mm thick granular drainage layer (to prevent infiltration), linked to the surface water drainage system, under a 500mm Type 1 surface capping layer. A 17m wide zone of landscaping was retained along the boundary with the stream to avoid slope stability issues.

The site was remediated for an industrial/commercial end use of open storage. To this end the capping layer provides a barrier which breaks potential pollution linkages to current and future site users. The open surfacing allows potential soil gases to vent safely to atmosphere. The perched water is confined on the site and remains undisturbed with no impacts on the local water courses. C A R[ GEOTECHNIC:

If the site is to be redeveloped as a business park, it is envisaged that this would incorporate hard surfacing of the existing granular surfacing and provision of commercial/office buildings. This change of use will not affect the environmental risk to site occupiers associated with the completed site, as the end use remains commercial/industrial and the hard surfacing and buildings will continue to provide a barrier to break the pollution linkages. Therefore no additional soil remediation is envisaged. However, where excavations are required, construction workers will require appropriate training and use ofPPE and excavated materials will be required to be analysed for contamination and waste acceptability for disposal of excess spoil in accordance with the Landfill (England and Wales) Regulations 2002. Waste disposal will have to comply with Duty of Care Regulations.

The hard surfacing will have to be designed to incorporate falls and 'soft'/permeable areas to allow gas venting through the existing drainage layer and new buildings, especially over the sludge lagoon areas, are likely to require basic gas protection measures. Typically this may include a gas impermeable membrane, cast in situ slabs and possibly passive underfloor venting, but gas monitoring will be required in accordance with CIRlA C665 to ensure appropriate design of gas protection.

Not with standing the above, contamination assessment methods have changed significantly since the original site investigation, and it may be necessary to undertake a further contamination investigation, compliant to current standards to satisfy local planning requirements. It is also likely that given the recent High Court judgement against Corby Borough Council with respect to liabilities associated with remediation of British Steel land, the Council will be seeking for developers to take a very robust approach to assessment and remediation of potentially similar land. It is envisaged that environmental monitoring during the works, good site practise and prevention of off site impacts are likely to be key requirements.

The lack of compaction of the fill and the variability of the soils, especially in the areas of the sludge lagoons, means that foundations for proposed buildings are likely to require piling into the Upper Lias. The concrete used for piles will require careful design to withstand the conditions within the remains of the sludge lagoons and gas works waste, and negative skin friction will be a consideration in those areas.

If development space is to be maximised and building is required on the landscape buffer zone at the top of the embankment above the stream, slope stability works are likely to be required to protect the slope and stream.

A development specific geotechnical investigation will be required to provide accurate design parameters for pile design. This should be combined with the contamination investigation for maximum value.

We trust that the enclosed fulfils your current requirements, but please call if you have any queries.

Yours sincerely

Jo Strange, Regional Director Card Geotechnics Limited . \ \ . . \ \. .

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 1 Where relevant, please include a copy of an extract from the public sewer map

Answer A copy of an extract of the public sewer map is included, showing the public sewers, disposal mains and lateral drains in the vicinity of the property.

Informative Public Sewers are defined as those for which the Sewerage Undertaker holds statutory responsibility under the Water Industry Act 1991. Anglian Water Services Limited is not generally responsible for rivers, watercourses, ponds, culverts or highway drains. If any of these are shown on the copy extract they are shown for information only. An extract from the public sewer map is enclosed. This will show known public sewers in the vicinity of the property and it should be possible to estimate the likely length and route of any private drains and/or sewers connecting the property to the public sewerage system. Assets other than public sewers may be shown on the copy extract for information.

Question 2 Where relevant, please include a copy of an extract from the map of waterworks

Answer A copy of an extract of the map of waterworks is included, showing water mains, resource mains or discharge pipes in the vicinity of the property.

Informative The map of the waterworks has been supplied by: Anglian Water Services Limited PO Box 770 Lincoln LN5 7WX Tel: 08457 145 145 www.anglianwater.co.uk The 'water mains' in this context are those which are vested in and maintainable by the water company under statute. Assets other than public water mains may be shown on the plan, for information only. Water companies are not responsible for private supply pipes connecting the property to the public water main and do not hold details of these. These may pass through land outside of the control of the seller, or may be shared with adjacent properties. The buyer may wish to investigate whether separate rights or easements are needed for their inspection, repair or renewal, please refer to Question 23. The enclosed extract of the public water main record shows known public water mains in the vicinity of the property. It should be possible to estimate the likely length and route of any private water supply pipe connecting the property to the public water network.

Question 3 Does foul water from the property drain to a public sewer?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that drainage proposals are checked with the developer.

Informative Anglian Water Services Limited is not responsible for any private drains and sewers that connect the property to the public sewerage system, and does not hold details of these. The property owner will normally have sole responsibility for private drains serving the property. If foul water does not drain to the public sewerage system the property may have private facilities in the form of a cesspit, septic tank or other type of treatment plant. An extract from the public sewer map is enclosed. This will show known public sewers in the vicinity of the property and it should be possible to estimate the likely length and route of any private drains and/or sewers connecting the property to the public sewerage system.

Question 4 Does surface water from the property drain to a public sewer?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that drainage proposals are checked with the developer.

Informative Anglian Water Services Limited is not responsible for private drains and sewers that connect the property to the public sewerage system, and do not hold details of these. The property owner will normally have sole responsibility for private drains serving the property. If on inspection the buyer finds that the property is not connected for surface water drainage, the property may be eligible for a rebate of the surface water drainage charge. Details can be obtained from the company tel: 0800 169 3271. If surface water does not drain to the public sewerage system the property may have private facilities in the form of a soakaway or private connection to a watercourse.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 5 Is a surface water drainage charge payable?

Answer Records confirm that a surface water drainage charge is not payable for the property.

Informative Where surface water from a property does not drain to the public sewerage system no surface water drainage charges are payable. Where surface water charges are payable but upon inspection the property owners believe that surface water does not drain to the public sewerage system, application can be made to the water company to end surface water charges (freephone 0800 169 3271 for more details).

Question 6 Does the public sewer map indicate any public sewer, disposal main or lateral drain within the boundaries of the property?

Answer The public sewer map included indicates that there are no public sewers, disposal mains or lateral drains within the boundaries of the property. However, on 1 October 2011, private sewers that serve a single property and lie outside the boundary of that property, were transferred into public ownership. Therefore there may be additional public sewers, disposal mains or lateral drains which are not recorded on the public sewer map but which may prevent or restrict development of the property.

Informative The boundary of the property has been determined by reference to the Ordnance Survey record. The presence of a public sewer running within the boundary may restrict further development. Anglian Water has a statutory right of access to carry out work on its assets, subject to notice. This may result in employees of the company or its contractors needing to enter the property to carry out work. Sewers indicated on the extract of the public sewer map as being subject to an agreement under Section 104 of the Water Industry Act 1991 are not an 'as constructed' record. It is recommended that these details are checked with the developer, if any.

Question 7 Does the public sewer map indicate any public sewer within 30.48 metres (100 feet) of any buildings within the property?

Answer The public sewer map indicates that there are no public sewers within 30.48 metres (100 feet) of a building within the property. However, it has not always been a requirement for such public sewers to be recorded on the public sewer map. It is therefore possible for unidentified sewers or public sewers to exist within the boundaries of the property. However, on 1 October 2011 private sewers were transfered into public ownership, therefore there may be additional lateral drains and/or public sewers which are not recorded on the public sewer map but are also within 30.48 metres (100 feet) of a building within the property.

Informative The measure is estimated from the Ordnance Survey record, between any building within the boundary of the property and the nearest public sewer. Sewers indicated on the extract of the public sewer map as being subject to an agreement under Section 104 of the Water Industry Act 1991 are not an 'as constructed' record. It is recommended that these details are checked with the developer.

Question 8 Are any sewers or lateral drains serving or which are proposed to serve the property the subject of an existing adoption agreement or an application for such an agreement?

Answer Records confirm that sewers serving the development, of which the property forms part, are not the subject of an existing adoption agreement or an application for such an agreement.

Informative This enquiry is of interest to purchasers of new properties who will want to know whether or not the property will be linked to a public sewer. Where the property is part of a very recent or ongoing development and the sewers are not the subject of an adoption application, buyers should consult with the developer to ascertain the extent of public drains and sewers for which they will hold maintenance and renewal liabilities.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 9 Has a Sewerage Undertaker approved or been consulted about any plans to erect a building or extension on the property over or in the vicinity of a public sewer, disposal main or drain?

Answer The company's records confirm that there is not a statutory agreement or consent in respect of building over/near a public sewer at this property. For historical reasons the company may not be aware of some agreements or consents which have been entered into by the local authority. Whilst an 'agreement' may not exist, current Building Regulation guidance permits building over/near sewers in certain circumstances. Consent without an agreement may have been issued by Anglian Water or independently by the Building Control Body. As long as the extension has a valid building regulations certificate then this should prove adequate assurance to the purchaser.

Informative Anglian Water Services Limited is obliged to maintain its sewers. If any problem were to arise, Anglian Water Services Limited would investigate the problem and has a statutory right of access to carry out work on its assets, subject to notice. This may result in employees of the company or its contractors needing to enter the property. In advance of any problem it is difficult to predict the effect the works would have on the property. Similarly, the position as to liability of both the property owner and Anglian Water Services Limited would need to be ascertained. On 1 October 2011 private sewers were transfered into public ownership, therefore there may be additional public sewers, disposal mains or lateral drains which are not recorded on the public sewer map but which may further prevent or restrict development of the property.

Question 10 Is any building within the property at risk of internal flooding due to overloaded public sewers?

Answer The property is not recorded as being at risk of internal flooding due to overloaded public sewers. On 1 October 2011 private sewers, disposal mains and lateral drains were transferred into public ownership. It is therefore possible that a property may be at risk of internal flooding due to an overloaded public sewer which Anglian Water may not be aware of. For further information it is recommended that enquiries are made of the vendor as to any previous flooding occurances.

Informative A sewer is "overloaded" when the flow from a storm is unable to pass through it due to a permanent problem (eg. Flat gradient, small diameter). Flooding as a result of temporary problems such as blockage, siltation, collapses, and equipment or operational failures are excluded. "Internal flooding" from public sewers is defined as flooding which enters a building or passes below a suspended floor. For reporting purposes, buildings are restricted to those normally occupied and used for residential, public, commercial, business or industrial purposes. "At Risk" properties are those that the water company is required to include in the Regulatory Register that is reported annually to the Director General of Water Services. These are defined as properties that have suffered, or are likely to suffer, internal flooding from public foul, combined or surface water sewers due to overloading of the sewerage system more frequently than the relevant reference period (either once or twice in ten years) as determined by the Company's reporting procedure. Flooding as a result of storm events proven to be exceptional and beyond the reference period of one in ten years are not included on the At Risk register. Properties may be at risk of flooding but not included on the Register where flooding incidents have not been reported to the company. Public sewers are defined as those for which the company holds statutory responsibility under the Water Industry Act 1991. It should be noted that flooding can occur from private sewers and drains which are not the responsibility of Anglian Water Services Limited. This report excluded flooding from private sewers and drains and Anglian Water Services Limited makes no comment upon this matter.

Question 11 Please state the distance from the property to the nearest boundary of the nearest sewage treatment works

Answer The nearest sewage treatment works is 1.65 kilometres to the South of the property. The name of the sewage treatment works is CORBY STW (Anglian Water Services Ltd).

Informative The nearest sewage treatment works will not always be the sewage treatment works serving the catchment within which the property is situated. The Sewerage Undertaker's records were inspected to determine the nearest sewage treatment works. It should be noted, therefore, that there may be a private sewage treatment works closer than the one detailed above that has not been identified.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 12 Is the property connected to mains water supply?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that the water supply proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 13 Are there any water mains, resource mains or discharge pipes within the boundaries of the property?

Answer The map of waterworks does not indicate any water mains, resource mains or discharge pipes within the boundaries of the property.

Informative The boundary of the property has been determined by reference to the Ordnance Survey record.

Question 14 Is any water main or service pipe serving, or which is proposed to serve the property, the subject of an existing adoption agreement or an application for such an agreement?

Answer This enquiry appears to relate to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that water supply proposals are checked with the developer.

Informative This enquiry is of interest to purchasers of properties who will want to know whether or not the property will be linked to the mains water supply.

Question 15 Is the property at risk of receiving low water pressure or flow?

Answer Records confirm that the property is not recorded on a register kept by the water undertaker as being at risk of receiving low water pressure or flow.

Informative "Low water pressure" means water pressure below the regulatory reference level which is the minimum pressure when demand on the system is not abnormal. Water Companies are required to include in the Regulatory Register that is reported annually to the Director General of Water Services properties receiving pressure below the reference level, provided that allowable exclusions do not apply. (i.e. events which can cause pressure to temporarily fall below the reference level). The reference level of service is a flow of 9 litres/minute at a pressure of 10 metres head on the customer's side of the main stop tap (mst). The reference level of service must be applied on the customer's side of a meter or any other company fittings that are on the customer's side of the main stop tap. The reference level applies to a single property. Where more than one property is served by a common service pipe, the flow assumed in the reference level must be appropriately increased to take account of the total number of properties served.For two properties, a flow of 18 litres/minute at a pressure of 10 metres head on the customers' side of the mst is appropriate. For three or more properties the appropriate flow should be calculated from the standard loadings provided in BS6700 or Institute of Plumbing handbook. Allowable exclusions: The Company is required to include in the Regulatory Register properties receiving pressure below the reference level, provided that allowable exclusions listed below do not apply. Abnormal demand: This exclusion is intended to cover abnormal peaks in demand and not the daily, weekly or monthly peaks in demand which are normally expected. Water Undertakers should exclude from the reported DG2 figures, properties which are affected by low pressure only on those days with the highest peak demands. During the report year companies may exclude, for each property, up to five days of low pressure caused by peak demand. Planned maintenance: Water Undertakers should not report under DG2 low pressures caused by planned maintenance. It is not intended that water undertakers identify the number of properties affected in each instance. However, water undertakers must maintain sufficiently accurate records to verify that low pressure incidents that are excluded from DG2 because of planned maintenance are actually caused by maintenance. One-off incidents: This exclusion covers a number of causes of low pressure: mains bursts; failures of company equipment (such as PRVs or booster pumps); firefighting; and action by a third party. However, if problems of this type affect a property frequently, they cannot be classed as one-off events and further investigation will be required before they can be excluded. Low pressure incident of a short duration: Properties affected by low pressure which only occur for a short period, and for which there is evidence that incidents of a longer duration would not occur during the course of the year, may be excluded from the reported DG2 figures.

Ref:11114292 Site at Corby, Geodesys Commercial Drainage & Water Enquiry:B965132-1 Requested: 01 May 2013 Completed: 02 May 2013

Question 16 Please include details of a water quality analysis made by the water undertaker for the water supply zone in respect of the most recent calendar year

Answer The analysis records confirmed that tests failed to meet the standards of the 2000 regulations or the 2001 Regulations in relation to another substance or substances, and these are 1 test of 932 taken from Wing water treatment works failed to meet the standard for clostridium. Although investigations did not identify the cause, the drinking water supply remained safe to drink. Also, 4 tests of 13 taken from Morcott water treatment works failed to meet the standard for metaldehyde, 5 tests of 25 taken from Wing water treatment works failed to meet the standard for metaldehyde and 1 test of 672 taken from Morcott water treatment works failed to meet the standard for clostridium. The exceedances were caused by elevated pesticide levels in the raw water supplying Morcott and Wing water treatment works. We are working with a wide range of other agencies, including the agricultural community, on ways in which levels of metaldehyde can be reduced in the environment. There is no risk to health.

Informative Anglian Water investigates all infringements of drinking water quality standards thoroughly and takes appropriate corrective actions to resolve any problems. If there was any risk to public health from the quality of drinking water supplied, the Company would inform customers immediately, advise them not to drink the water until the risk had been removed and would take appropriate steps to advise and protect their customers. The information provided above is based on a full calendar year. For more up to date and detailed information please see the water quality report provided at the back of this search. You can also visit www.anglianwater.co.uk, or telephone 0845 0709109 or write to Geodesys, PO Box 485, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, PE29 6YB. Water companies have a duty to provide wholesome water that meets the standards of the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2000. Water quality is normally tested at the tap used for domestic consumption, usually the kitchen. However, the owner/occupier is responsible for any deterioration in water quality that is a result of the supply pipe and the plumbing within the property and results in the standards not being met. In England and Wales these regulations implement the requirements of the European Drinking Directive 98/83/EC. The 2000 Regulations impose standards for a range of parameters, which are either health based to ensure the water is safe to drink or ensure the water is aesthetically acceptable. They also require that drinking water should not contain any element, organism or substance (whether or not a parameter) at a concentration or value which would be detrimental to public health. If there are concerns that lead pipes within the property may be causing high levels of lead in your drinking water please contact your water company for further advice (Telephone Anglian Water Customer Services on: 08457 145 145). The water company undertakes a monitoring programme to establish water quality that includes random sampling from properties. It will notify the consumers of any failures to meet the water quality standards that are due to the condition or maintenance of the supply pipe and the plumbing within the property. Samples are taken from a random selection of addresses within a water supply zone and the results of these samples represent the zonal performance. Water Quality zones are allowed to have a population equivalent of up to 86,000 and can cover large geographical areas. There is only a small possibility that the results of samples reported were taken from the property in question. The data collected by the company is subject to external review by the drinking water inspectorate (DWI) and by local and health authorities. In addition to reviewing quality data the DWI also carry out audits during which any area of the company's operations can be examined.

Question 17 Please include details of any departures, authorised by the Secretary of State under Part 6 of the 2000 Regulations from the provisions of Part 3 of those Regulations.

Answer There are no such authorised departures for the water supply zone.

Informative Authorised departures are not permitted if the extent of the departure from the standard is likely to constitute a potential danger to human health. Please contact your water company if you require further information.

Question 18 Please include details of the location of any water meter serving the property

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or recently built property. It is recommended that the charging proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 20 Who bills the property for sewerage services?

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that the charging proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 21 Who bills the property for water services?

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or a recently built property. It is recommended that the charging proposals are checked with the developer.

Question 22 What is the current basis for charging for sewerage and water services at the property?

Answer Records indicate that this enquiry relates to a plot of land or a recently built property.

Informative Water and sewerage companies full charges are set out in their charge schemes which are available from the company free of charge upon request. Unless we consider it impracticable to fit a Meter, we will require a Meter to be fitted to our specification to measure the volume of water supplied for charging purposes to all Non-Household premises or to any other premises where the principal use of the premises is not as a person's home. (For the purposes of assessing whether the principal use of the premises is otherwise than as a person's home account will be taken of whether a business is registered for V.A.T. purposes at the premises.) Non-Household Customers will be charged for fitting a Meter. Non-Household Measured Tariffs will automatically apply and be fixed in respect of all Non-Household Premises to which a Meter has been fitted to our specification to measure the volume of water supplied for charging purposes. Otherwise, the Unmeasured Tariffs will apply. Mixed use premises are premises used partly as a person's house or dwelling and partly for business purposes, eg. a supply serving both a farmhouse occupied as a sole or principal dwelling and a farm; or, a shop and a flat occupied as a sole or principal dwelling. If the principal use of the premises is for business purposes, measured charges will apply as if the whole of the premises were Non-Household premises. If the principal use of the premises is as a person's sole or principal dwelling, measured charges will apply when fixed in accordance with our Meter policy for Household Customers. Otherwise, Customers will be charged unmeasured tariffs. Occupiers of Mixed Use Premises may choose whether the premises are charged under Household Charges or Non-Household Charges. Choosing to pay Non-Household Charges will not affect your statutory rights if you are occupying the premises as your home or as your sole or principal dwelling, but may otherwise affect your entitlement, eg. for a leakage rebate. If at a later date separate supplies are provided to separate parts of the premises, those parts will be charged according to their use, ie. Household or Non-Household.

Question 23 Is there any easement giving Anglian Water the right of access to defined assets located within the boundary of the property?

Answer Records indicate that the property is not subject to such an agreement.

Informative This question relates to private agreements between Anglian Water acting in a private capacity and a landowner. Such contracts may often be part of a conveyance or land transfer, or a deed of grant of easement. If there is no formal easement, then a sewer or water main may have been constructed following the service of notice under the provisions of the Public Health Act 1936, Water Act 1945, Water Act 1989 or Water Industry Act 1991 as applicable. The company does not hold copies of these notices. However, in the absence of evidence to the contrary there is a legal presumption that all matters were properly dealt with. All rights and obligations relating to sewers and water mains are now covered by the Water Industry Act 1991. Where rights exist at the boundary of the property, but we are not sure of the exact correlation, we will answer 'yes' to this question. A documentary right can exist even if the physical asset itself has not yet been laid, or has been moved, or removed. Likewise the position of the right and of the asset may differ. You may also find that an asset is protected both with contractual rights and statutory rights. Please consult your solicitor as to why this may happen, and its effects. We refer to 'defined' assets for the following reasons: Often a contract may give Anglian Water an expressed right to install and maintain assets within an area but without stating the exact position or route of such assets. Also, the law may imply rights where none have been mentioned specifically in a related contract, such as a conveyance. Finally, rights may come into being through long use. In any of these cases the rights are undefined, and although Anglian Water may need to rely on them from time to time, as we cannot map the rights accurately, we will answer 'no' to this question. Information obtainable from physical inspection (including Trial Bore Holes) overides information contained in the report. Any error in answering this question is not to be regarded as a waiver of Anglian Water's rights or title, or an agreement or representation that Anglian Water is prepared to vary or discharge any of its rights or title.

As a general rule, easement widths are as follows:

Pipe Diameter Width or Strip Up to 149mm 4.5m 150 - 449mm 6.0m 450 - 749mm 9.0m 750 and above 12.0m

If you require a copy of an agreement please contact Savills, Trinity Court, Trinity Street, Peterborough, PE1 1DA. A fee may be charged for this service. Please quote the date of the Report plus the Report Reference. You may also make contact either by telephone on 01733 209932 or by email to [email protected]

Question 24 Are there any trade effluent consents relating to this site/property

Answer Records indicate that there are no trade effluent consents relating to this site/property.

Informative The Trade effluent consent applies to premises in the vicinity of the premises the subject of this search, but it is for the applicant to satisfy itself as to the suitability of the consent for its client's requirements. If, in the case of any trade premises, any trade effluent is discharged without such consent or other authorisation, the occupier of the premises shall be guilty of an offence. The occupier of any trade premises in the area of Anglian Water Services Limited may only discharge any trade effluent proceeding from those premises into Anglian Water Services Limited's sewers if he does so with Anglian Water Services Limited's consent. Please note any existing consent is dependant on the business being carried out at the property and will not transfer automatically upon change of ownership. For further information, including copies of consent, please contact Anglian Water, Water Quality and Environmental Performance Department, Environmental Standards Team, Anglian House, Ambury Road South, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, PE29 3NZ or telephone 01480 323971.

Title: B965132-1 Drinking Water Quality Report for the Desborough Public Water Supply Zone

Report period: January 2012 to December 2012 Your drinking water supply Anglian Water’s region is divided into 158 water supply areas called Public Water Supply Zones, each providing our customers with an excellent drinking water supply. We carry out around 146,000 tests each year on drinking water samples taken from customer taps. The number of drinking water samples we take, and the tests we carry out, are specified in the current Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations and our regulator, the Drinking Water Inspectorate, carry out regular audits to make sure we comply with these regulations.

During the period of this report, all samples taken in this Public Water Supply Zone fully met all the legal limits specified in the current Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations, except for one sample taken from Wing water treatment works which did not meet the legal limit for Clostridia perfringens. Although investigations did not identify the cause, the drinking water supply remained safe to drink. Also, samples taken from Morcott and Wing water treatment works did not meet the legal limit for the pesticide metaldehyde. The exceedances were caused by elevated pesticide levels in the raw water supplying Morcott and Wing water treatment works. We are working with a wide range of other agencies, including the agricultural community, on ways in which levels of metaldehyde can be reduced in the environment. There is no risk to health.

Source: Your drinking water supply comes from a surface water source (either river or reservoir).

Hardness: Your drinking water supply is classified as hard. We've included the following information to help you set your domestic appliances, the hardness has been shown in different units below:

Calcium (mg/l) Calcium carbonate (mg/l) Degrees Clark (°C) Degrees French (°f) Degrees German (°dH) millimoles (mmol/l of Ca) 106 265 18.444 26.5 15.052 2.65

(mg/l = milligrammes per litre or the same as parts per million)

Fluoride: We don’t add fluoride to your drinking water supply, but there is naturally occurring fluoride present in all drinking water supplies.

Chlorine: Disinfection is important to ensure there are no harmful organisms in the water. We use chlorine to disinfect drinking water supplies. We also add a small amount of ammonia in this process, so your drinking water supply is chloraminated.

Lead: If you live in a house built before 1970, you may have lead pipework. If you think you may have lead pipework, call our Lead Advice Line on 0845 070 3445 to arrange for a free lead test.

Work in your area: To make sure the quality of the drinking water we supply remains excellent, we sometimes need to carry out work to ensure we continue to meet the legal limits specified in the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2000 (as amended). This work is known as a Programme of Work. Our Regulator, the Drinking Water Inspectorate closely monitors the progress of this work and will formally sign it off when it is completed. The table below shows what we are doing in your area:

Introduction

The Environment Act 1995 has made site sensitivity a key issue, as the legislation pays as much attention to the pathways by which contamination could spread, and to the vulnerable targets of contamination, as it does the potential sources of contamination. For this reason, Landmark's Site Sensitivity maps and Datasheet(s) place great emphasis on statutory data provided by the Environment Agency and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency; it also incorporates data from Natural England (and the Scottish and Welsh equivalents) and Local Authorities; and highlights hydrogeological features required by environmental and geotechnical consultants. It does not include any information concerning past uses of land. The datasheet is produced by querying the Landmark database to a distance defined by the client from a site boundary provided by the client.

In the attached datasheet the National Grid References (NGRs) are rounded to the nearest 10m in accordance with Landmark's agreements with a number of Data Suppliers.
