Site appears to provide important ecological connectivity features. Loss of ecosystem connectivity would be at odds with the fundamental aims of maintaining and enhancing biodiversity and your Authority’s duty under Section 6, Part 1 of the Environment (Wales) Act 2016. The Well-Being of Future Generations (Wales) Act and the Environment (Wales) Act provide a duty to maintain
and enhance the resilience of ecosystems.
- PrC2/h10 The Dell, Furnace, Llanelli
Following discussions on this allocation it was confirmed that the surrounding woodland will be retained to maintain a green corridor providing connectivity with the main woodland and the Dell. The mitigation required may reduce the amount of land available for development and the site would need to be allocated on this principle to ensure the soundness of the plan.
The allocation of the site within the LDP for residential purposes has been subject to full consideration through the site assessment methodology. As part of this assessment process a detailed site pro forma has been prepared.
Further evidential work will be required for examination, with the matter to be considered at examination

This duty is reflected in many policies including Planning Policy Wales.
Our detailed comments on the allocated employment sites can be found in Annex 2 and 3 however, any mitigation required may reduce the amount of land available for development and the site would need to be allocated on this principle to ensure the soundness of the plan.

INF4: Llanelli Waste Water Treatment Surface Water Disposal
We support the inclusion of this policy and the supporting Burry Inlet SPG. As you know there has been a long-established partnership approach to dealing with concerns on the risk of deterioration of water quality on the Carmarthen Bay and Estuaries European Marine Site.
Paragraph 11.203 states that Dwr Cymru Welsh Water (DCWW) have confirmed that there is sufficient capacity within Llanelli Waste Water Treatment Works to deliver the Plan’s identified growth without breaching their permit requirements.
We acknowledge that in addition to the implementation of the requirements of the Memorandum of Understanding on new developments, several improvement schemes have also been undertaken within the catchment since it was introduced.
We are satisfied that if DCWW have confirmed the above in writing, the Policy, with its requirements for surface water removal by the major developments, should ensure that the identified growth will cause no detriment to water quality from the generation of foul flows.
Support welcomed
