The application has been submitted by Terraconsult Limited (TCL) on behalf of SUEZ Recycling and Recovery UK Limited (SUEZ, the Operator). The purpose of the waste recovery activity is to restore Runfold Central Area to agricultural pasture mandated by planning permission referenced WA/2018/0016 with specific reference to the restoration contours detailed on attached SUEZ drawing referenced Rsp- CONT-0518-02: Central Area Proposed Low Level Restoration Contours. There is insufficient material available on site to support the scheme and it is proposed to import suitable waste materials to complete the works. The Planning Consent forms the specific obligation to restore the Runfold Central Area to agricultural pasture ensuring the work to restore the site would be carried out with or without the use of waste. The primary areas of activity for the waste recovery works will take place within the residual void remaining from quarrying and partial infill by landfilling in the southern part of the Runfold Central Area. A second void within the Central area abutting the northern boundary was associated with a cutting to a conveyor tunnel used for transferring minerals under the Guildford Road. The cutting also requires restoration under the recovery activity, the tunnel itself will be infilled by other means. The accompanying Waste Recovery Plan (WRP) attached in Appendix B contains the following drawings: Rsp-CONT-0518-02: Central Area Proposed Low Level Restoration Contours: 2445/4/002: Cross Section Locations (Form B2 Q5a) The Environmental Site Setting Design (ESSD) report includes further drawings relevant to the application. Due to the quantity of material and the position of the proposed activity on existing waste landfilled deposits, a bespoke permit application is required. The Bespoke permit application forms A, B2, B4 and F1 are attached in Appendix A. 1.2 Pre-Application Reference (From B2 Q1) A conservation and heritage pre-application screen was requested and issued by the Environment Agency (Agency) on the 12th December 2018 (Appendix B). The pre- application reference number (EPR/HB3006FB/A001) was issued after discussions with the Agency on the 15th November 2019. 1.3 Waste Recovery Plan (Form B4 Q1c) The Waste Recovery Plan (referenced 2445_R_01_6) submitted and approved by the Environment Agency is attached in Appendix C. The approval advice letter referenced EPR/HB3006FB/A001 is attached in Appendix D.
