  • Field Trip Report the Tortworth Inlier Sunday 26Th April 2015. Dave
    Field Trip Report The Tortworth Inlier Sunday 26th April 2015. Dave Green, our group leader, showed us some of the fascinating geology, to the north-east of the city of Bristol. This area is relatively flat but has some undulating topography as it runs into the Vale of Berkeley. It includes the northern part of the once busy Bristol Coalfield. This part of South Gloucestershire is largely rural, dotted with farms, small villages and little townships. It is enclosed by the Mendip Hills to the south, the Cotswold Escarpment to the north and to the east, and the Severn estuary to the west. The area is drained by small streams and rivers like the Frome, whose waters skirt the contours and tumble into the Severn Estuary. Palaeozoic rocks can be found exposed here, while to the east and north east younger Mesozoic rocks overlie them. The geology of South Gloucestershire at first blush appears complex and takes a little unravelling. To begin with; some terminology An inlier is an island of older rock strata, surrounded by younger strata. The Tortworth Inlier comprises Cambrian/Silurian outcrops surrounded by Mesozoic rocks located around Charfield Green, just south of the Little Avon river. It also lies North East of the Carboniferous Coalpit Heath syncline once mined for the bituminous coals it contains. The rock strata we hoped to see Cambrian rocks The oldest strata are the Micklewood beds of upper Cambrian/Lower Ordivician and Tremadoc in age. These are grey micaceous shales with flaggy sandstone or siltstones inbetween. They lie in the southern third of the Tortworth inlier.

This document contains baseline environmental information and other relevant environmental data. Site Specific Baseline, September 2014 Berkeley Site, Issue 3 Page 2 of 18 STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Site Specific Baseline – September 2014 Berkeley Site Berkeley Gloucestershire GL13 9PA Berkeley Site Berkeley Site (hereafter referred to as the Site) is twin reactor Magnox station undergoing decommissioning, and is located close to the town of Berkeley in the Stroud District of Gloucestershire, South West England. It is situated on the eastern bank of the River Severn, from which it drew cooling water supplies during its operational phase. The site covers an area of 11 hectares (27 including Berkeley Centre).1a The following describes the key dates for the site: Construction of the site commenced in 1957, and electricity was first supplied to the grid in 1962.1 The site ceased electricity generation in 1989 after 27 years of operation.1 Defuelling of the reactors was completed in 1992.1 Additional funds have been made available to Berkeley Site as part of Magnox Optimised Decommissioning Plan (MODP), so certain areas of work have been accelerated to facilitate entry to Care and Maintenance (C&M) by the anticipated date.2 Both of the reactor buildings were put into the Safestore state in 2010.b The Care and Maintenance Preparations (C&MP) phase of the decommissioning process is scheduled to be completed in 2021 at which point the site will enter the Care and Maintenance (C&M) phase.2 Final Site Clearance (FSC) is scheduled to commence at the end of the C&M phase.

    1 The Square, Temple Quay 2nd Floor Bristol, BS1 6DG United Kingdom T +44 (0)117 910 2580 F +44 (0)117 910 2581 www.jacobs.com 26 July 2021 Attention: Dan Jones Planning Department South Gloucestershire Council EIA SCREENING OPINION REQUEST UNDER THE TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING (ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT) REGULATIONS 2017 PROVISION OF CHARFIELD RAILWAY STATION. Dear Mr Jones, This letter is a formal request under Regulation 6 of the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2017 (the EIA Regulations) for a Screening Opinion from South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) (as the Local Planning Authority), to determine whether the above-mentioned development constitutes an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) development requiring an Environmental Statement (ES). As well as being a formal request, this letter explains why Jacobs, working on behalf of SGC (the Applicant), believes that the development does not require formal EIA under the terms of the EIA Regulations. Consequently, the ‘Station works’ (defined below) are considered permitted development, and what documentation would be required to enable validation of a planning application for the ‘Associated works’ (defined below). To enable SGC to come to an informed Screening Opinion, this letter provides a brief description of the nature and purpose of the proposed development and outlines any potential effects the development may have on the local environment, in accordance with the EIA Regulations. A map showing the location of the proposed Charfield Railway Station is provided on the Location Plan which accompanies this letter (Drawing ref: 673847.CE.56-JC-DR-004). The proposed development is located entirely within the administrative boundary of SGC, on Station Road within the village of Charfield.

    ISSUE NUMBER 198 “For and about the people of Berkeley” April 2012 Price 20p BERKELEY’S ICONIC BOILERS LEAVE FOR RECYCLING In a first for a former UK power station, Magnox has announced that, working with Low Level Waste Repository (LLWR) and its main contractor Studsvik, it has successfully removed five redundant boilers from its Berkeley site in Gloucestershire. LLWR became involved in the project in its role as the National Low Level Waste (LLW) integrator, and has a suitable Photo courtesy of Simon Bingham established procurement route through the metallic waste treatment framework. After a competitive tendering process LLWR appointed Studsvik as the main contractor for the removal, transport and treatment of the boilers in Sweden, where they will be recycled. Steve McNally, Berkeley Site Director said: “The removal of these boilers is a huge skyline change for the site and is a great achievement for team Berkeley and importantly our customer, the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA). Working closely with LLWR and Studsvik, we have managed to remove legacy waste from the site instead of leaving it for future generations to manage. This project also has great environmental credentials, as Photo courtesy of John Carter the majority of the metal will be free-released into the market place for reuse.” The boilers, which are 21.3 metres long, five metres wide and 310 tonnes each in weight, were removed whole from site by heavy lifting sub-contractor ALE, who was appointed by Studsvik, using specialist lifting equipment which loaded the boilers on to purpose-built transportation vehicles. The boilers were then transported through Berkeley town centre to Sharpness Docks.

    LAND SOUTH OF CHARFIELD Environmental Statement Volume 1 – Non-technical summary July 2020 Land South of Charfield Volume 1: Environmental Statement (June 2020) Non-Technical Summary Land South of Charfield Environmental Statement Volume 1: Non-Technical Summary (June 2020) 1.0 Introduction and Methodology 1.1 This document sets out the findings of an Environmental Impact Assessment (‘EIA’) that has been undertaken to assess the potential impacts of proposals for a residential-led mixed-use development on land to the south of Charfield, hereafter referred to as (‘the Site’). 1.2 This document is a summary in non-technical language of an Environmental Statement (‘ES’) that has been prepared on behalf of CEG and the Charfield Landowners Consortium (‘the Applicant’). 1.3 On the basis that the proposed development represents an urban development project on a site exceeding 5ha and with over 150 dwellings, the proposed development falls within Part 10 (b) of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2017 (as amended) (‘the EIA Regulations’). 1.4 The EIA Regulations state that development falling within Schedule 2 is ‘EIA Development’ if it is likely to have significant effects on the environment due to its nature, size or location. It has been agreed with South Gloucestershire Council (‘SGC’) that the proposed development has the potential for significant effects due to the size of the development. As such, the proposed development is considered to be EIA Development. 1.5 This Non-Technical Summary (‘NTS’) considers the likely significant effects arising during the construction and operation of the scheme and the potential cumulative effects that may arise when the impacts of the scheme combine with other relevant nearby development proposals.
