11.356 We welcome the inclusion of this paragraph which address our previous points regarding agricultural developments. We would advise that reference to ‘intensive’ agriculture and livestock units is removed to prevent confusion as the comments are applicable to all agricultural developments.
The content of the Chief Planning Officers letter of 12 June 2018 on intensive agriculture states “LPAs are advised to put in place appropriate policies in Local Development Plans in order to facilitate the sustainable consideration of this type of development.” It should be made clear what the sensitive receptors are within the county and what will require buffering from such developments. Given that Carmarthenshire is a strong agricultural setting we question whether a specific policy is required.
We note you have included a policy on equestrian facilities (RD5) which from an environmental perspective tend to pose less risk when considering the discharges/emissions and wastes arising, cumulative impacts and water quality.
Change to Plan if necessary.
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.
Comments noted. Matters to be further considered at Examination.
