LC6 Cumulative environmental impacts

Developers should satisfy the council that they have adequately considered issues associated with site investigation and remediation such as cumulative negative environmental impacts from dust, noise, odour and traffic movements arising from the remediation activities and the possible need for measures to control or mitigate them. A balance should be struck between the overall social and economic benefits from the development, including the remediation proposals, and the temporary impacts of the remediation process. Applicants are recommended to consider carefully the waste management implications when deciding the best approach to remediation and the handling and treatment of contaminated soils and other material.
