Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy 2013
Area Management Regulatory Services Environmental Protection Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On April 1st 2000, Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (inserted into that Act by section 57 of the Environment Act 1995) came into force. The main objective requires local authorities to take a “strategic approach” to inspecting their areas to identify land where contamination is causing unacceptable risks to human health or the wider environment. This document is the second review and sets out the manner in which Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council proposes to implement its inspection duties under Part 2A in accordance with the revised Statutory Guidance issued by the Department of Environment and Rural Affairs in April 2012 which should be read in conjunction with this Strategy. This is a comprehensive review of the Strategy to reflect the many changes in contaminated land legislation and guidance published in the last few years. Using a bespoke software package (GeoEnviron) with the Council’s GIS system, contaminated land has been identified and prioritised. The Council identified landfill sites within the borough as highest priority for inspection due to problems from landfill gas, land stability and leachate pollution, potentially posing high risks to neighbouring occupants, and therefore concentrated resources in these areas. To-date, following successful funding bids to Defra, the Council has investigated 3 former landfill sites known to have domestic waste tipped and continues to monitor and manage gas at these sites to minimise the risk to nearby residents. From the work carried out to-date, no sites have been determined as contaminated land, under the definition stated within the statutory guidance. -

Heritage at Risk Register
CASTLE HOWARD MAUSOLEUM Castle Howard Estate, Ryedale, North Yorkshire The Mausoleum, by Hawksmoor, 1729-42, and modelled on the tomb of Metella, is a major feature of the Howardian Hills. Situated on a bluff east of Castle Howard. The columns were repaired with a grant in the 1980s. The entablature and bastions continue to decay. Much of the damage is due to rusting cramps. The staircase balustrade is collapsing. 304 HERITAGE AT RISK YORKSHIRE & THE HUMBER 305 Y&H HERITAGE AT RISK 2008 Of the 176 entries on the baseline 1999 Yorkshire and the Humber buildings at risk register, 91(52%) have now been removed. Although this is 6% higher than the regional average for 2008, our rate of progress is slowing. Of the five entries removed this year, only one was on the 1999 register. This is because the core of buildings remaining from the 1999 register are either scheduled monuments with no obvious use, or buildings with a problematic future that require a strategic re-think to provide a viable solution. Despite these problems, we are continuing to work with owners, local authorities, trusts and other funding bodies to try to secure the long-term future of these buildings and structures. Just over half (52%) of the regional grants budget (almost £500,000) was offered to eleven buildings at risk in the last financial year. There are four new entries this year: in North Yorkshire, St Leonard’s Church at Sand Hutton, and in West Yorkshire, Hopton Congregational Church in Mirfield,Westwood Mills at Linthwaite, and Stank Hall near Leeds.This gives a total of 122 Grade I and II* listed buildings and scheduled monuments at risk entries on the Yorkshire and the Humber register. -
Minerals and Waste Core Strategy
Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents In association with Core Strategy DPD Adopted September 2011 27333-r22.indd 1 08/11/2010 14:55:36 i ii Foreword The Tees Valley Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents (DPDs) - prepared jointly by the boroughs of Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees - bring together the planning issues which arise from these two subjects within the sub-region. Two DPDs have been prepared. This Minerals and Waste Core Strategy contains the long-term spatial vision and the strategic policies needed to achieve the key objectives for minerals and waste developments in the Tees Valley. The separate Policies and Sites DPD, which conforms with it, identifies specific sites for minerals and waste development and sets out policies which will be used to assess minerals and waste planning applications. The DPDs form part of the local development framework and development plan for each Borough. They cover all of the five Boroughs except for the part within Redcar and Cleveland that lies within the North York Moors National Park. (Minerals and waste policies for that area are included in the national park’s own local development framework.) The DPDs were prepared during a lengthy process of consultation. This allowed anyone with an interest in minerals and waste in the Tees Valley the opportunity to be involved. An Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State carried out an Examination into the DPDs in early 2011. He concluded that they had been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and were sound. -
Local Wildlife and Geological Sites January 2017
Redcar & Cleveland Local Wildlife and Geological Sites January 2017 this is Redcar & Cleveland 1 BACKGROUND 3 2 SCHEDULE OF LOCAL WILDLIFE SITES 5 3 SCHEDULE OF LOCAL GEOLOGICAL SITES 11 APPENDIX 1: Location Maps 15 2017 y anuar J te Upda Sites Geological and e ildlif W Local Redcar & Cleveland Local Plan 1 2 Local Wildlife and Geological Sites Update January 2017 R edcar & Cle v eland Local Plan 1. BACKGROUND What are Local Sites and why do we need them? 1.1 Local Sites can be Local Wildlife Sites (LWS) or Local Geological Sites (LGS). Local Wildlife Sites are areas of land which meet specific, objective criteria for nature conservation value. These criteria, which are based on the Defra guidance(1), have been decided locally by the Tees Valley Local Sites Partnership. The sites represent a range of important habitat types and variety of species that are of conservation concern. The Tees Valley RIGS (Regionally Important Geological Sites) group advises the Local Sites Partnership on the selection and management of Local Geological Sites, areas which they have identified as being of geological importance. 1.2 Local Sites can provide local contact with nature and opportunities for education, however designation as a Local Site does not confer any right of access. 1.3 Formerly known as Sites of Nature Conservation Interest (SNCIs) and RIGS, Local Sites are non-statutory site designations that have a lower level of protection than statutory designations, such as Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs). Local Sites, excluding those within the North York Moors National Park, currently receive protection from certain types of inappropriate development through our Local Development Framework. -

Castle Studies Group Bibliography No. 23 2010 CASTLE STUDIES: RECENT PUBLICATIONS – 23 (2010)
Castle Studies Group Bibliography No. 23 2010 CASTLE STUDIES: RECENT PUBLICATIONS – 23 (2010) By John R. Kenyon Introduction This is advance notice that I plan to take the recent publications compilation to a quarter century and then call it a day, as I mentioned at the AGM in Taunton last April. So, two more issues after this one! After that, it may be that I will pass on details of major books and articles for a mention in the Journal or Bulletin, but I think that twenty-five issues is a good milestone to reach, and to draw this service to members to a close, or possibly hand on the reins, if there is anyone out there! No sooner had I sent the corrected proof of last year’s Bibliography to Peter Burton when a number of Irish items appeared in print. These included material in Archaeology Ireland, the visitors’ guide to castles in that country, and then the book on Dublin from Four Court Press, a collection of essays in honour of Howard Clarke, which includes an essay on Dublin Castle. At the same time, I noted that a book on medieval travel had a paper by David Kennett on Caister Castle and the transport of brick, and this in turn led me to a paper, published in 2005, that has gone into Part B, Alasdair Hawkyard’s important piece on Caister. Wayne Cocroft of English Heritage contacted me in July 2009, and I quote: - “I have just received the latest CSG Bibliography, which has prompted me to draw the EH internal report series to your attention. -
Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents
Draft Only i APPENDIX 2(i) Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents Core Strategy Publication Document August 2009 Draft Only ii Draft Only iii Foreword The preparation of Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents (DPDs) for Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees Boroughs presents an important opportunity to understand and deal with the cross boundary issues which arise from these two subjects in the Tees Valley. Two DPDs are being prepared. This Core Strategy contains the long-term spatial vision and the strategic policies needed to achieve the key objectives for minerals and waste developments in the Tees Valley. The Policies and Sites document will, in conformity with this Core Strategy, identify specific sites for future minerals and waste development and provide a limited range of policies which will be used to assess minerals and waste planning applications. The DPDs will form part of the Local Development Framework for each Borough, which together with the Regional Spatial Strategy for North East England will form the Development Plan for the area. The DPDs cover all of the land within the five Boroughs except for the part within Redcar & Cleveland Borough that also falls within the North York Moors National Park. The Publication Document represents the third stage of the preparation process. The first stage, in May 2007, was the production of an Issues and Options Report, where the issues affecting minerals and waste development in the Tees Valley were identified and consultees and the general public were asked to identify which of the options presented were the most appropriate for dealing with the issues. -

Appendices to the Appraisal of Sustainability Site Report for Hartlepool
Appendices to the Appraisal of Sustainability Site Report for Hartlepool EN-6: Revised Draft National Policy Statement for Nuclear Power Generation Planning for new energy infrastructure October 2010 Appendices to the Appraisal of Sustainability Site Report for Hartlepool Appraisal of Sustainability of the revised draft Nuclear National Policy Statement The Appraisal of Sustainability (AoS), incorporating Strategic Environmental Assessment, of the revised draft Nuclear National Policy Statement (Nuclear NPS) has been undertaken at a strategic level. It considers the effects of the proposed policy at a national level and the sites to be assessed for their suitability for the deployment of new nuclear power stations by 2025. These strategic appraisals are part of an ongoing assessment process that started in March 2008 and, following completion of this AoS, will continue with project level assessments when developers make applications for development consent in relation to specific projects. Applications for development consents to the Infrastructure Planning Commission will need to be accompanied by an Environmental Statement having been the subject of a detailed Environmental Impact Assessment. The AoS/SEA Reports are presented in the following documents: AoS Non-Technical Summary Main AoS Report of draft Nuclear NPS Introduction Approach and Methods Alternatives Radioactive Waste Findings Summary of Sites Technical Appendices Annexes to Main AoS Report: Reports on Sites Site AoS Reports Technical Appendices All documents are available on the website of the Department of Energy and Climate Change at http://www.energynpsconsultation.decc.gov.uk This document is the Appendices to the Appraisal of Sustainability Site Report for Hartlepool.
