However, they consider the management and mitigation plans included in the planning statement to ensure the prevention of surface water pollution to be satisfactory and advise the Local Planning Authority that these should be secured against any planning permission granted for the proposals. Due to the proximity of the site to watercourses, all works at the site must be carried out in accordance with Guidance for Pollution Prevention (GPP) 5: Works and maintenance in or near water, and GPP 6: Working on construction and demolition sites, which are available on the NetRegs website.
