Thank you for consulting Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru/National Resources Wales (NRW) on the above, which was received on 17 February 2023.
We welcome the opportunity to provide comments on your Second Deposit Revised
LDP.
We support the intent of the plan’s policies and proposals to enable the delivery of sustainable development and ensure social, economic, environmental and cultural
well-being goals are all suitably balanced in the decision-making process, so the right development occurs in the right place.
We also acknowledge that you have taken on board advice from our previous correspondence which has enabled positive provisions in the second Deposit Plan
both in policy terms and regarding allocation of sites. However, there are issues with the latest draft which we feel challenge the Soundness of the Plan. These key
issues are highlighted below:
• SAC rivers / Habitats Regulations Assessment (HRA)
• Flood risk regarding the following sites allocated for housing under Strategic Policy 4: A Sustainable Approach to Providing New Homes
PrC3/h33 Llys Dolgader
PrC3/h19 Land off Llys y Nant
SeC19/h1 Land at Park View, Whitland
Sec19/h2 Land at Whitland Creamery
• Flood risk regarding allocation - PrC2/GT1 – Land at Penyfan, Trostre, Llanelli, under Strategic Policy SP 10: Gypsy and Traveller provision.
• Biodiversity and ecosystem resilience regarding six allocations (two housing and four employment).
In addition, to matters of soundness we also advise that some refining/clarity be made to the plan in respect of several policies and supporting text to ensure the
robustness of the plan.
Our detailed comments on the plan and supporting documents can be found in the annexes to this letter.
Please note that our comments are without prejudice to any comments we may wish to make when consulted on any subsequent formal planning application submissions
to develop any of the land identified within the plan. At the time of any other consultation there may be new information available which we will need to consider
in providing our formal advice.
Finally, we look forward to continuing to work closely with you to progress the plan and trust these comments are of assistance. If you have any queries, or if you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us at the above address.

Strategic policy SG3: Pembrey Peninsula
This is a new policy that has been included since the first draft. We can understand the significance of the area regarding the economy of the county but in addition to respecting the area’s role, function and sense of place it is imperative that proposals do not have a negative impact on the sensitive ecology of the area and that consideration is given to the risks from coastal flooding and erosion.
Pembrey is a particularly sensitive area with regard to ecology and habitat loss, disturbance, light pollution and hydrological impacts. Some of the UK's rarest species can be found in this area including Vertigo angustior and Dactonys aquatus, in addition to numerous other Sitte of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and Special Area of Conservation (SAC) features. Water voles have been reintroduced to the Pembrey area in recent years and it also provides a haven for Dormice and Greater horsehoe bats. The area is also adjacent to the Burry Inlet Special Protection Area (SPA) and Ramsar site.

We support the intention of the policy to ‘maximise opportunities for; enhancement to the quality and extent of existing; and the creation of new, landscape and ecological elements and features, as Green and Blue Infrastructure assets’. However, connectivity needs to be considered in the design to ensure that existing habitats/biodiversity is not isolated. We therefore advise that as a point of clarity specific mention of connectivity is detailed within Policy PSD1 (d).

The following sites are identified by the Flood Map for Planning as being at risk of flooding and therefore their allocation within the plan fails to meet the tests of soundness.
As confirmed in the letter from Welsh Government dated 15 December 2021, ‘when plans are reviewed, the flood risk considerations that feed into the settlement strategy and site allocations must be in accordance with the new TAN 15 and the Flood Map for Planning’. When proposing an allocation within a flood risk area your Authority should undertake sufficient background evidence to demonstrate that the development is appropriate for the flood zone and that the consequences of flooding can be acceptably managed.
