The intention is to redevelop the site for residential use. The site has been occupied by Foster Street Farm since the 1960’s/1970’s comprising a number of buildings including a large warehouse and smaller brick built outbuildings and sheds. During the GB Card & Partners 2014 walkover and the more recent walkover it was noted that the site and former farm buildings were being used by a scaffolding contractor. It was also noted that there was potentially fly-tipped material onsite and areas were being used for storage of old plant and barrels of unknown substances. The underlying geology is likely to comprise superficial deposits of the Lowestoft Formation (‘Boulder Clay’); which overlies the London Clay Formation. The site is considered to be of low to medium risk to identified receptors with regard to ground contamination. Further action is required to assess the risks to human health associated with contamination and outline specific remedial measures for the site, if required. It is recommended that a Phase 2 ground investigation comprising a series of window sampler boreholes is undertaken to assess the potential for ground contamination associated with historic and current use of the site. Foster Street, Harlow Reference: GB/505 Phase 1 Desk Study Report 3 March, 2018 1. INTRODUCTION GB Card & Partners (GBCP) has been commissioned by Hastingwood Developments Limited (‘the Client’) to undertake a Phase 1 Desk Study Report for a site located off Foster Street in Harlow, Essex. The intention is to redevelop the site for residential use. The aim of the assessment is to understand the ground conditions and potential for contamination to be present beneath the site prior to its re-development. This report provides a preliminary conceptual site model and establishes the risks posed by potential contamination to future site users and the environment. Recommendations for site investigation requirements are provided. This report has been prepared to support a planning application for the site (Epping Forest District Council planning reference: EPF/2516/14). The aim of this report is to discharge Condition 17 which is presented below. ‘No development shall take place until a Phase 1 Land Contamination investigation has been carried out. A protocol for the for the investigation shall be submitted to and approved by the Local Authority before commencement of the Phase 1 investigation. The completed Phase 1 report shall be submitted to and approved in writhing by the Local Planning Authority prior to the commencement of any necessary Phase 2 investigation. The report shall assess potential risks to present and proposed humans, property including buildings, crops, livestock, pets, woodland and service lines and pipes, adjoining land, groundwaters and surface waters, ecological systems, archaeological sites and ancient monuments and the investigation must be conducted in accordance with DEFRA and the Environment Agency’s ‘Model Procedures for the Management of Land Contamination, CLR11’, or any subsequent version or regulatory guidance.’ The report has been undertaken in general accordance with Environment Agency Contaminated Land Report (CLR)1 and R&D Publication 662. 1 Environment Agency (2004) Model Procedures for the Management of Land Contamination.

    Draft recommendations on the future electoral arrangements for Harlow in Essex June 2000 LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND The Local Government Commission for England is an independent body set up by Parliament. Our task is to review and make recommendations to the Government on whether there should be changes to local authorities’ electoral arrangements. Members of the Commission are: Professor Malcolm Grant (Chairman) Professor Michael Clarke CBE (Deputy Chairman) Peter Brokenshire Kru Desai Pamela Gordon Robin Gray Robert Hughes CBE Barbara Stephens (Chief Executive) We are statutorily required to review periodically the electoral arrangements – such as the number of councillors representing electors in each area and the number and boundaries of wards and electoral divisions – of every principal local authority in England. In broad terms our objective is to ensure that the number of electors represented by each councillor in an area is as nearly as possible the same, taking into account local circumstances.
