NOTE: “The proposed development is approximately 1.5km from the River Wye SAC and within 90m of a watercourse hydrologically connected to the SAC….insufficient information has been submitted to demonstrate how surface and ground water pollution that has potential to damage to the local water courses and the River Wye SAC will be avoided.”

NRW response May 2021

“An ammonia emission modelling report prepared by AS Modelling & Data Ltd, dated 6th October 2020, has been submitted with the application. The modelling assessment evaluates potential impact to sensitive receptor sites resulting from the predicted emissions from the current application, i.e. 10,000 birds. It is considered inappropriate that the modelling has ignored the emissions from the two adjacent units. Ammonia emissions modelling must be based on the total actual and proposed emissions from the holding to appropriately evaluate potential impact on protected and priority sites.”

NOTE: there are also 3 other unrelated IPU sites within 2km of the proposed unit
