lighting at proposed car park, Buccleuch Dock Road, Barrow-in-Furness as shown
on plan number 2015/0051.
Representations received and the results of consultations were reported.
RESOLVED:- That planning permission be granted subject to the Standard Duration
Limit and the following conditions:1.
The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in all respects in
accordance with the application dated 20th January, 2015 and the
hereby approved documents defined by this permission as listed below,
except where varied by a condition attached to this consent.
Environmental Report Jan 2015 PB1700
Ecological Appraisal BOW17/527
Land Quality Preliminary Risk Assessment PB1700-R02-303708/LPool
Plan CP/SK3 Rev C
Transport Statement Addendum PB1700 RHCP02/304032 March 2015
Reason
In order to link the permission to the submitted application and as
recommended by the DCLG.
2.
A Field Investigation and Updated Risk Assessment, conducted in
accordance with established procedures (BS10175 (2011) Code of
Practice for the Investigation of Potentially Contaminated Sites and
Model Procedures for the Management of Land Contamination
(CLR11)), shall be undertaken to determine the presence and degree
of contamination and must be undertaken by a suitably qualified
contaminated land practitioner. The results of the Field Investigation
and Updated Risk Assessment shall be submitted to and approved by
the Planning Authority prior to the commencement of any development.
Reason
The applicant has not yet undertaken an intrusive ground investigation
hence the potential existence of contamination on the site is unknown.
These works are therefore necessary in order to ensure that risks from
land contamination to the future users of the land and neighbouring
land are minimised, together with those to controlled waters, property
and ecological systems, and to ensure that the development can be
carried out safely without unacceptable risks to workers, neighbours
and other offsite receptors in accordance with Saved policy D56 of the
Local Plan Review 1996-2006.
3.
No soil material is to be imported to the site until it has been tested for
contamination and assessed for its suitability for the proposed
development. A suitable methodology for testing this material should be
submitted to and approved by the Planning Authority prior to the soils
being imported onto site. The methodology should include the sampling
frequency, testing schedules, criteria against which the analytical
results will be assessed (as determined by the risk assessment) and
source material information. The analysis shall then be carried out as
per the agreed methodology with verification of its completion
submitted to and approved in writing by the Planning Authority.
Reason
To ensure that risks from land contamination to the future users of the
land and neighbouring land are minimised, together with those to
controlled waters, property and ecological systems, and to ensure that
the development can be carried out safely without unacceptable risks to
workers, neighbours and other offsite receptors in accordance with
Saved policy D56 of the Local Plan Review 1996-2006.
4.
Prior to the commencement of any development, (excluding those
works necessary for the clearance and preparation of the ground and
the enclosure of the site), a scheme to show the surface water drainage
and means of disposal, based on sustainable drainage principles with
evidence of an assessment of the site conditions (inclusive of how the
scheme shall be managed after completion), shall be submitted to and
approved in writing by the Planning Authority. The surface water
drainage scheme must be restricted to existing runoff rates to surface
water sewer and unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Planning
Authority, no surface water shall discharge to the public foul/combined
system either directly or indirectly. There should be no infiltration of any
contaminated water to ground. If infiltration methods are to be used on
this site then it would need to be demonstrated that a minimum 1m
unsaturated zone will occur beneath the base of any infiltration device
and the highest expected natural water table. The SUDS scheme will
also need to include adequate water quality treatment measures. The
development shall be completed, maintained and managed in
accordance with the approved details.
Reason
Upon the advice of consultees it is considered that the applicant has
supplied insufficient information to fully assess the impact of the use
upon the drainage network. The additional information is necessary in
order to ensure that the site is adequately drained and in order to
control the potential for pollution of the water environment.
5.
Any external lighting shall at all times be directed and shielded so as to
minimise light spillage outside of the application site, and shall not
shine directly onto any adjacent highways.
Reason
To minimise light pollution in accordance with Saved policy D63 of the
Barrow Local Plan Review 1996-2006, and in the interests of highway
safety.
6.
Except in the case of a site emergency, egress from the site shall be
via Buccleuch Dock Road only.
Reason
In the interests of highway safety and the safety of users of
neighbouring sensitive sites, by reducing potential traffic through
adjacent roads.
7.
Prior to the beneficial occupation of any part of the development hereby
approved, a soft landscape scheme for the site, showing the trees,
shrubs and hedgerows, including verges and other open spaces,
together with details of any phasing of such a scheme, must be
submitted to and approved in writing by the Planning Authority. The
scheme shall be submitted on a plan not greater that 1:500 in scale and
shall contain details of numbers, locations and species of plants to be
used. All planting and subsequent maintenance shall be to current
British Standards. The approved scheme must subsequently be
implemented by the end of the first planting season following initial
beneficial occupation of the development or by such a programme as
may be agreed in writing. Any trees or shrubs removed, dying being
severely damaged or becoming seriously diseased shall be replaced by
the landowner with trees or shrubs of a similar size and species to
those originally required to be planted.
Reason
In the interests of the visual amenities of the area due to the prominent
location of the site adjacent to Barrow Island conservation area.
516 – Land at TB Warehouse, Jute Road, Barrow-in-Furness
From Mr Steve Robson, BAE Systems Marine Ltd in respect of the 231 space private
car park, new vehicle access barrier and pedestrian access gates, security lighting,

Warehouse, Jute Road, Barrow-in-Furness as shown on plan number 2015/0099.
The results of consultations were reported.
RESOLVED:- That planning permission be granted subject to the Standard Duration
Limit and the following conditions:1.
The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in all respects in
accordance with the application dated 6th February, 2015 and the
hereby approved documents defined by this permission as listed below,
except where varied by a condition attached to this consent.

Reason
In order to link the permission to the submitted application and as
recommended by the DCLG.
2.
A Field Investigation and Updated Risk Assessment, conducted in
accordance with established procedures (BS10175 (2011) Code of
Practice for the Investigation of Potentially Contaminated Sites and
Model Procedures for the Management of Land Contamination
(CLR11)), shall be undertaken to determine the presence and degree
of contamination and must be undertaken by a suitably qualified
contaminated land practitioner. The results of the Field Investigation
and Updated Risk Assessment, together with any mitigation proposals,
shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Planning Authority,
the submission being no later than six calendar months following the
commencement of any parking of vehicles on site. The approved
details shall be fully implemented within twelve calendar months of the
commencement of any vehicle being parked on site.
Reason
The applicant has not yet undertaken an intrusive ground investigation
hence the potential existence of contamination on the site is unknown.
These works are therefore necessary in order to ensure that risks from
land contamination to the future users of the land and neighbouring
land are minimised, together with those to controlled waters, property
and ecological systems, and to ensure that the development can be
carried out safely without unacceptable risks to workers, neighbours
and other offsite receptors in accordance with Saved policy D56 of the
Local Plan Review 1996-2006.
3.
No soil material is to be imported to the site until it has been tested for
contamination and assessed for its suitability for the proposed
development. A suitable methodology for testing this material should be
submitted to and approved by the Planning Authority prior to the soils
being imported onto site. The methodology should include the sampling
frequency, testing schedules, criteria against which the analytical
results will be assessed (as determined by the risk assessment) and
source material information. The analysis shall then be carried out as
per the agreed methodology with verification of its completion
submitted to and approved in writing by the Planning Authority.
Reason
To ensure that risks from land contamination to the future users of the
land and neighbouring land are minimised, together with those to
controlled waters, property and ecological systems, and to ensure that
the development can be carried out safely without unacceptable risks to
workers, neighbours and other offsite receptors in accordance with
Saved policy D56 of the Local Plan Review 1996-2006.
4.
Within three calendar months of any part of the site being used for
vehicle parking, a scheme to show the surface water drainage and
means of disposal, based on sustainable drainage principles with
evidence of an assessment of the site conditions (inclusive of how the
scheme shall be managed after completion), shall be submitted to and
approved in writing by the Planning Authority. The surface water
drainage scheme must be restricted to existing runoff rates to surface
water sewer and unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Planning
Authority, no surface water shall discharge to the public foul/combined
system either directly or indirectly. There should be no infiltration of any
contaminated water to ground. If infiltration methods are to be used on
this site then it would need to be demonstrated that a minimum 1m
unsaturated zone will occur beneath the base of any infiltration device
and the highest expected natural water table. The SUDS scheme will
also need to include adequate water quality treatment measures. The
drainage works shall be completed within six months of the date of the
initial use of the site for parking, and thereafter maintained and
managed in accordance with the approved details.
Reason
Upon the advice of consultees it is considered that the applicant has
supplied insufficient information to fully assess the impact of the use
upon the drainage network. The additional information is necessary in
order to ensure that the site is adequately drained and in order to
control the potential for pollution of the water environment.
5.
All permanent works, including the surfacing construction, marking out,
and the installation of barriers and signage, shall be completed within
12 calendar months of the site first being used for the parking of any
vehicles.
Reason
In recognition of the time scale of the wider Successor Programme but
in order to ensure that the development is carried out in accordance
with the environmental protection measures identified by consultees.
6.
Any external lighting shall at all times be directed and shielded so as to
minimise light spillage outside of the application site, and shall not
shine directly onto any adjacent highways.
Reason
To minimise light pollution in accordance with Saved policy D63 of the
Barrow Local Plan Review 1996-2006, and in the interests of highway
safety.
