The approved drainage works shall be implemented in accordance with the approved details before the first occupation of the development hereby permitted and shall be retained thereafter. Reason: To ensure development would not result in unacceptable risk of pollution or harm to the environment and to ensure the proposed development does not exacerbate flood risk and deals with surface water run-off from the site in a sustainable manner, in accordance with Policies SWDPR38 and SWDPR39 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review.
No development shall begin until a Construction Environment Management Plan (CEMP) has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The CEMP shall include the following details:- a. details to minimise the impact of noise, vibration and dust from construction, demolition and site clearance activities and the traffic associated with this development, including a scheme for vehicle wheel cleaning and other measures to ensure that vehicles leaving the site do not deposit mud or other detritus on the public highway.

Reason - To minimise the likelihood of indiscriminate parking in the interests of highway safety in accordance with Policies SWDPR05, SWDPR06 and SWDPR28 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review and paragraph 116 of the NPPF.
Unless otherwise agreed by the Local Planning Authority development, other than that required to be carried out as part of an approved scheme of remediation, must not commence until conditions 1 to 6 have been complied with: 1. A preliminary risk assessment must be carried out. This study shall take the form of a Phase I desk study and site walkover and shall include the identification of previous site uses, potential contaminants that might reasonably be expected given those uses and any other relevant information. The preliminary risk assessment report shall contain a diagrammatical representation (conceptual model) based on the information above and shall include all potential contaminants, sources and receptors to determine whether a site investigation is required and this should be detailed in a report supplied to the Local Planning Authority. The risk assessment must be approved in writing before any development takes place. 2. Where an unacceptable risk is identified a scheme for detailed site investigation must be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority prior to being undertaken. The scheme must be designed to assess the nature and extent of any contamination and must be led by the findings of the preliminary risk assessment. The investigation and risk assessment scheme must be compiled by competent persons and must be designed in accordance with the Environment Agency's "Land Contamination: Risk Management" guidance. 3. Detailed site investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken and a written report of the findings produced. This report must be approved by the Local Planning Authority prior to any development taking place. The investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken by competent persons and must be conducted in accordance with the Environment Agency's "Land Contamination: Risk Management" guidance. 4. Where identified as necessary a detailed remediation scheme to bring the site to a condition suitable for the intended use by removing unacceptable risks to identified receptors must be prepared and is subject to the approval of the Local Planning Authority in advance of undertaking. The remediation scheme must ensure that the site will not qualify as Contaminated Land under Part 2A Environmental Protection Act 1990 in relation to the intended use of the land after remediation. 5. The approved remediation scheme must be carried out in accordance with its terms prior to the commencement of development, other than that required to carry out remediation, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. 6. Following the completion of the measures identified in the approved remediation scheme a validation report that demonstrates the effectiveness of the remediation carried out must be produced, and is subject to the approval of the Local Planning Authority prior to the occupation of any buildings. 7. In the event that contamination is found at any time when carrying out the approved development that was not previously identified it must be reported in writing immediately to the Local Planning Authority. An investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken and where necessary a remediation scheme must be prepared, these will be subject to the approval of the Local Planning Authority. Following the completion of any measures identified in the approved remediation scheme a validation report must be prepared, which is subject to the approval in writing of the Local Planning Authority prior to the occupation of any buildings. 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 Policies SWDPR35 and SWDPR42 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review.
The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with the recommendations set out in the report carried out by Chelmarsh RG, dated 12 March 2023, and submitted with the original application with reference W/23/00726/FUL. Reason: To ensure the development contributes to the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the site and the wider area, in accordance with Policies SWDPR29 and SWDPR34 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review.
Work should avoid disturbance to nesting birds. Nesting birds are protected under the 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act and the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000. The main nesting season lasts approximately from March to September, so work should take place outside these dates if at all possible. However, birds can nest at any time and the site including any buildings should ideally be checked for their presence immediately before work starts.
Buildings are frequently used as roosting sites by bats. Bats and their 'roost' sites are protected under the 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act and the Habitat Regulations 1994, the latter of which deems them a European Protected Species. It is a criminal offence to recklessly disturb or destroy a bat 'roost'. The applicant is advised to take professional advice on the matter since it is possible that a protected species licence might be necessary to undertake these works. Further information about species licensing and legislation can be obtained from the Species Licensing Service on 0117 372 8000. If evidence of bats is found during works, work should stop immediately and Natural England must be contacted on 01453 764450 for advice on the best way to proceed.
