Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the details submitted pursuant to condition 2 make appropriate provision for a written scheme of archaeological investigation
- whether the details submitted pursuant to condition 4 make appropriate provision for a scheme to assess the nature and extent of any contamination on the site
- whether the details submitted pursuant to condition 5 make appropriate provision for a detailed remediation scheme
What decided it
The submitted details failed to comply with the procedural requirements of the conditions and were based on outdated reports that predated current planning policy guidance and contaminated land statutory guidance, rendering them unreliable.
