  • Abstraction Licence Application Decision Statement Template
    DECISION STATEMENT ABSTRACTION LICENCE APPLICATION Affinity Water Limited Application number: NPS/WR/027731 Licence number: 28/39/28/0480 EA Area: Hertfordshire North London Date of Application: 13 September 2019 Decision Date: 06 July 2021 Applicant details: Affinity Water Limited Tamblin Way Hatfield Hertfordshire AL10 9EZ 1. Summary of the proposal: Affinity Water Limited applied to vary their full abstraction licence 28/39/28/0480, which permits abstraction from the Chalk groundwater aquifer for the purpose of public water supply across nine sites in the Colne Valley, collectively referred to as the ‘Blackford Group’. The application comprised of two distinct components: A. Renewal of a time-limited annual volume (annual aggregate) which permits an increase in the annual abstraction rate across the group from 29,200,000 to 32,120,000 cubic metres. This variation was originally granted in 2003. This component has been renewed up to 31 March 2025 to align with the end of the seventh Asset Management Period (AMP7), during which alternative supply options will be identified if further investigations under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) find that this abstraction is having an adverse impact on the Chalk groundwater body or dependent surface waterbodies. B. Variation [increase] in the peak hourly and daily abstraction rates at West Hyde and Batchworth sites of abstraction, to mitigate a potential reduction in supply from other sites within the Blackford Group as a result of construction works associated with HS2. This proposal forms part of a wider strategy put forward by Affinity, which includes the variation granted to the Watford Group licence 28/39/28/0270 on 21 May 2021.

  • Green Belt Assessment for Three Rivers
    Maple Cross Parcel MC9 Description Two open agricultural fields, with Hornhill Road running through the centre, located adjacent to the inset urban edge of Maple Cross. The inset settlement boundary is formed of a hedgerow and Hornhill Road to the south east and a hedgerow and small residential lane to the north east. The M25 provides very clear distinction with the wider Green Belt to the west. A ridge crest marks some distinction from sloping land to the north, but there is no significant boundary feature to the south. Impact on contribution Purpose 1 Contribution - Check the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas While the parcel is located further from the more contiguous development that forms part of the large built up area, it lies adjacent to Moderate Maple Cross which is associated with the large built up area and is open and undeveloped. Weak settlement edge boundaries limit the extent to which development would be perceived as sprawl Purpose 2 Contribution - Prevent neighbouring towns merging into one another Although Maple Cross is not considered to be a town the open space around it contributes to the overall gap between the towns of Relatively limited Rickmansworth and Chalfont St Peter / Gerrards Cross. However the motorway to the west of the parcel provides a strong separating feature which means that release would have a only a limited impact on narrowing the gap between Rickmansworth and Chalfont St Peter / Gerrards Cross. Purpose 3 Contribution - Assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment The parcel is open and undeveloped, but there is no significant distinction from the inset settlement edge.
