The majority of the open cast site has since been reclaimed and the fields specific to the application are currently utilised for arable farming. The site extends to approximately 19.5ha. 2.2 Access to the site is from Tom Lane to the south via a track which originally served the open cast workings. The residential settlements of Duckmanton, Inkersall and Staveley / Poolsbrook are situated to the east, west, and north of the site respectively. 2.3 The M1 motorway is approximately 1km to the east of the proposal and links to Tom Lane via Markham Road. The A632 Chesterfield Road runs approximately 1.2km to the south and the Staveley Road/Inkersall Road runs approximately 450m to the west. In addition there are 400kW overhead transmission lines adjacent the west and north of the site towards Inkersall and Poolsbrook Country Park. Footpath 10 also runs alongside the eastern boundary and partially through the northern half of the application site from Tom Lane to Poolsbrook. 2.4 To the immediate west of the application site boundary stands an 85m high wind turbine, which became operational towards the end of 2014. 3.0 SITE HISTORY 3.1 CHE/14/00060/EIA - screening opinion under regulation 5 of the town and country planning (EIA) regulations 2011 for the locating of a temporary (27 year period) solar voltaic farm capable of generating 6.5mw. Screening direction issued by LPA on 07/02/2014 confirming the proposals were not EIA development. 3.2 CHE/13/00420/FUL - installation of one (1) mid scale wind turbine of maximum height to tip of 84m and including: upgraded and new access track, a hardstanding area, a small substation enclosure, temporary guyed meteorological mast and associated infrastructure. Approved conditionally on 19/11/2013. 3.3 North East Derbyshire DC - 14/00563/FL - Construction of 4.9 MW Solar Farm with ancillary buildings, deer fence, cctv, access tracks and landscaping on land NE of Arkwright Town, Cherry Tree Farm, Chesterfield Road Duckmanton, Chesterfield, S44 5JG. Approved conditionally 11/09/2014 but not yet implemented. 4.0 THE PROPOSAL 4.1 The application as submitted details a proposed solar voltaic farm comprising a 7-8MW PV module array. The proposals also detail incidental works including electrical control cabinets, embedded substations, areas of hardstanding for craneage, a grid connection building, cabling, site access and internal access tracks, fencing, cctv and infra red lighting system, a pyranometer mast and construction compound. The application seeks consent for a period of 27 years, which allows for up to a year for construction; a 25 year operational period and up to a year thereafter for decommissioning. 4.2 The PV module array will be erected on a supporting racking system and will cover an area approximately 12ha which will include spacing between the rows and perimeter. The PV modules (solar panels) will be typically 1m x 1.6m x 500mm thick and will be mounted to a maximum height above ground level of 2.5m. The array will be arranged in rows on an east / west axis across the site with the modules mounted 30 degrees from the horizontal facing south to maximise solar gain. 4.3 The installation will require up to 80 small electrical cabinets (1m x 1m x 500mm) which will be positioned near or underneath the array racking to house the cable system that gathers energy from the panels and inverters; and 6 embedded substations are also proposed which will house the transformers and inverters whose function converts DC to AC and up-rate voltage as required by the grid. The substations will be 9m x 3m x 3m. 4.4 The entire installation will be reliant upon various cabling which is to be buried in trenching throughout the site. Trenching will be 1.5m deep and 600mm / 1.5m wide stretching between the array, cabinets, substations to the grid connection building and will contain DC and AC cables as well as communications cabling. 4.5 The grid connection building will house switch gear and metering equipment and is located at the point of connection with the electricity grid (the southern end of the site). The building measures 12m x 6m x 4.5m. 4.6 The proposals will be served by the existing highway access point off Tom Lane and the access track will be upgraded in part by the laying of compacted stone and a geotextile grid. In addition 6 no. hardstanding areas will be formed adjacent each embedded substation measuring 12m x 12m to allow for craneage. 4.7 The site boundary will be secured by 2m high deer fencing which will be sited within field boundaries and a CCTV system (with infra red lighting) will be installed comprising 15 no. 3.5m high columns. The installation also comprises the siting of a pyranometer mast which is a 3m high lattice mast which supports equipment to measure irradiation levels on site. 4.8 The application is supported by the submission of the following documentation: Planning Application Drawing Schedule Planning Statement Design and Access Statement Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment (inc. Visuals) Flood Risk Assessment Heritage Statement Statement of Community Involvement Phase I Habitat Survey 4.9 Additional information was submitted by the applicant on 06/01/2015 which comprised: Revised Heritage Statement (further updated on 20/01/2015) Site Selection Appraisal Revised Infrastructure Layout Revised Landscape Mitigation Strategy Schedule of Clarifications 5.0 CONSIDERATIONS 5.1 National/Local Planning Policy 5.1.1 The application site is situated on open countryside / other open land as defined in the Chesterfield Local Plan: Core Strategy 2011 - 2031. Having regard the nature of the application proposals the National Planning Policy Framework and Planning Policy Guidance (NPPF and PPG); and Policy CS5 of the Core Strategy apply. 5.1.2 The NPPF (paragraph 98) directs that when determining planning applications for renewable energy development, Local Planning Authorities should: not require applicants for renewable energy development to demonstrate the overall need for renewable or low carbon energy and also recognise that even small-scale projects provide a valuable contribution to cutting greenhouse gas emissions; and approve the application if its impacts are (or can be made) acceptable. Once suitable areas for renewable and low carbon energy have been identified in plans, LPAs should also expect subsequent applications for commercial scale projects outside these areas to demonstrate that the proposed location meets the criteria used in identifying suitable sites. 5.1.3 Policy CS5 of the Core Strategy states the Council will support proposals for renewable energy generation particularly where they have wider social, economic and environmental benefits, provided that they: minimise adverse impact on the historic environment including designated heritage assets; minimise adverse impact on the natural landscape and townscape character; minimise adverse impact on nature conservation; minimise adverse impact on amenity - in particular through noise, dust, odour and traffic generation; reduce impact on the open countryside by locating distribution lines below ground where possible; and include provision to reinstate the site if the equipment is no longer in use or has been decommissioned. 5.1.4 Renewable energy developments are widely accepted and solely having regard to the location of the solar farm being proposed, the principle of the development in policy terms is acceptable. Detailed assessment of the local potential impacts of the development must however be considered and in this regard the sections of the report that follow look at each issue in turn.

  • Why Is the Water Quality in the River Doe Lea So Poor?”
    “Why is the water quality in the River Doe Lea so poor?” Dissertation submitted as part requirement for the Degree of Master of Science in Urban Water Engineering and Management By: Mark Stevens Supervisor: Prof. David Lerner The University of Sheffield Department of Civil & Structural Engineering September 2011 Declaration: Mark Stevens certifies that all the material contained within this document is his own work except where it is clearly referenced to others. _____________________ ii ABSTRACT: STEVENS, M. 2011. Why is the water quality in the River Doe Lea so poor? MSc Urban Water Engineering and Management Dissertation, Department of Civil and Structural Engineering, University of Sheffield The Doe Lea River has a long history of pollution issues which once earned it the reputation of the most polluted river in Europe. Water quality has succumbed to the pressures of mining heritage, industry, agriculture, urban growth and major highways which dominate the catchment. The catchment has a poor chemical and biological classification status with the Environment Agency and ecological statues varies between poor and bad. Conditions of poor flow are often observed, which intensify water quality issues. In order to determine the reasons for the degradation of surface water quality, a project has been devised to take a snapshot of the water chemistry. Fifty water samples were collected simultaneously across the whole catchment and repeated for each season of the year. Analysis of these samples has developed understanding of pressures and influences that are contributing to water quality degradation. Via a mass balance analysis, it has been possible to locate particular areas of concern, determine sources and quantities of pollution and devise land management options to alleviate pollution stresses.

  • Plants at Clowne (Circa 1780)
    Chapter 3 Plants at Clowne (circa 1780) SOME NOTES ON PARISH RECORDS ETC.1 May 1991. One of a series of Chapters by Dr. John S. Plant, Keele University, England, ST5 5BG. Some of the descendants of Charles Plant (cf Chapter 6) have spent many years trying to ascer- tain his ancestry, largely from the clue of his being born, according to Census data, in the parish of the village of Clowne in Derbyshire. Although they have not yet traced the parental origins of this Charles Plant, they have done much to piece together the family trees of Plant families living at and around Clowne, such as at nearby Sutton-Cum-Duckmanton, from about 1730 to 1830. 3.1 Plants near Sutton and Clowne Records have been found (incomplete) for various Plants in parishes around Clowne. For example, Sutton-Cum-Duckmanton is immediately to the south of the parish of Staveley, which in turn is immediately to the west of the parish of Clowne. The ancestor William, in Figure 3.1, was of Duckmanton when he married Ann Webster in 1725 in the parish of Ault Hucknall2. It appears that their first child, Robert, was born to the north of this parish. It should be added, however, that the 1988 version of the IGI also records at Sutton-Cum- Duckmanton, in 1729, a marriage between a William Plant and Anne Green. 3.1.1 Robert(s) of Bolsover and Beighton A Robert Plant married Rachel Spaner at Beighton in 1751 (Figure 3.3); the parish of Beighton is about 8 miles to the north of Sutton-Cum-Duckmanton.
