In accordance with the above Schedule, Great Yarmouth Borough Council, as Local Planning Authority is required to consider within 28 days of receipt of the above application whether the prior approval of the authority will be required as to the method of demolition and any proposed restoration of the site.
I hereby confirm that the following prior approval is given subject to the notes which are provided with this decision:
The applicant/agent should also be advised that no person should begin demolition of any building that has a cubic content of more than 49.55m3 (1750 cubic feet) unless the Local Authority has first been given notice in accordance with Section 80 of the Building Act 1984, and, either the Local Authority has given notice under Section 81 of the Building Act 1984 or the relevant period has expired. The details to be submitted with the notice shall include a scheme for the method of demolition and means of controlling noise and dust during demolition. Further advice regarding demolition can be sought from the Council's Environmental Protection Team.
Hours of Work:
Due to the close proximity of other residential dwellings and businesses, the hours of any construction or refurbishment works should be restricted to:
0800 hours to 1800 hours Monday to Friday
No work on Saturdays or Sundays
Local Air Quality:
The site may potentially generate a significant amount of dust during the demolition process; therefore, the following measures should be employed:
An adequate supply of water shall be available for suppressing dust;
Mechanical cutting equipment with integral dust suppression should be used;
There shall be no burning of any materials on site, or burial of asbestos, which should instead be removed by an EA licenced waste carrier, and the waste transfer notes retained as evidence.
Should the building involved, be constructed, partially constructed or contain asbestos, it is suggested that the applicants take the appropriate steps regarding any Health and Safety issues in accordance with relevant legislation. The Health and Safety Executive may be able to advise on this.
In addition any waste materials should be disposed of in the correct manner. The applicant is advised to contact the Environment Agency which is the Waste Regulatory Authority. |
